Thank you for doing this video. Clarion inn/Rosen inn Lake Buena Vista has been such a hidden gem for off property hotels considering the ones just nearby are way more expensive. This really is the best bang for the buck hotel outside of Disney. You can’t beat the price, cleanliness and location

Just found your video! I've stayed there on 6 occasions, back in '98, first time, on and off until 2013. So it started life as the Comfort Inn, then the Clarion Inn, and now the Rosen. More name changes than some celebrities! I agree for me travelling solo, it was perfect. Always felt very safe walking up the lovely road, to Crossroads, which I know is no longer there. So sad. Used to buy all my room supplies at Goodings. The staff remembered me from one year to the next. Couldn't believe that I was actually WALKING back to the hotel, with 2 bags of heavy shopping! It was the couple of bottles of water that made it so heavy! Like you, I always asked for a parking lot room. I suffer with insomnia, so any noise is a problem. The very first year I went with a 'boyfriend' I did request a pool view room, obviously not realising about I-5. It was like being in the middle of a motorway! However, after going to reception, it was changed the following day. I agree with you, that the rooms are fine, I had no probs. with cleanliness. The staff when I was last there were great. Some had been there for years, Jill in the restaurant for eg. She was great! Always brought me 2 teabags, as she knew the Brits like strong tea! The only negative i.m.o. is the transportation to the parks. It has rapidly gone downhill over the years. For me, it is/was extremely important. Back in the day it was a different company. Went to all the parks, with so many time choices. Now no M.K. no A.K. and I think I noticed no Epcot. Ridiculous. I can also remember 'back in the day' there was a bus to Downtown Disney, now D.Springs. Some changes, i.m.o. aren't for the better. I was very friendly with one of the Managers who was there on my last 2 visits, I remember suggesting to her, that perhaps if adults paid $10 a week and children $5, which is not a lot, that maybe that could go to help improving the service. She did mention, that they were thinking about going with another company, but I read online, it's still the same one! Sorry that I've rambled on! The video brought back a lot of memories, so thank you.

I am so glad you enjoyed the walk through. It is more like going home when you stay here. All the staff remember you and talk to you. We always stay here as we love it so much. We don't use the buses I am afraid, we usually have a car, but the prices have gone up so much with Covid, we used Uber. Yes I would definitely always request a car park view. Thank you so so much for watching we really appreciate it.

It is free, I don't think you had to reserve. We never used it. As it takes you to epcot and then you have to get transport. It was at a strange time too. We got ubers at $15 each way to magic kingdom drops you straight at the entrance. I know it was very busy on the shuttle bus.

Great vid, we would describe this place as a travel lodge (service station) next to the M1. We just stayed there, unfortunately it was nothing like we were promised by Tui. Some of the staff were ignorant and unhelpful, shuttle service and timetable was a joke, costing us hundreds of dollars in Ubers, restaurant buffet was greatly overpriced (despite being guests there) and we had many other issues with staying at this place. Some good points, but unfortunately a lot more negative than good.

Thanks for this, really helpful. Am about to book last minute for the Easter hols, seems mad with the amount of planning that used to be needed for Disney but looks like we can still get parks reserved which I'm surprised about! Just wondered if you were able to walk from hotel to any restaurants? We won't have a car and as 4 of us will need Uber XL so think costs will mount up if we can't walk at least some places. Deciding between this and Rosen International, which does look like more places walking distance. Would be great to have your opinion. 🙂
@AtractionsMayhem12342 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much I am so glad you found it helpful. It depends which parks you are going to. If you are going to Universal the most then International drive is the best. If you are going to Disney and Seaworld then Rosen Lake Buena vista is great as it is so near. It cost us around $15 each way in an uber and there wasn't that much difference in an Uber Xl sometimes we got one of those for extra room. The good thing with an uber is it drops you right at the entrance to magic kingdom where the buses drop off. There are loads of places to eat within walking distance, you have steak houses, dominos, denny's, starbucks, olive garden, Millers, steak and shake, pizza hut, to name a few. 2 Petrol stations where you can buy water etc and it is not much in an uber to walmart on Turkey Lake Road to stock up on supplies. Hope this helps and have a great time.
