The hotel

An iconic Orlando resort just 1.5 miles from Walt Disney World, the Orlando World Center Marriott has fun-for-all down to a tee.  Whizz down 7 thrilling waterslides, and take a dip in our 400,000 gallon lagoon pool or float your worries away in our 575-foot lazy river.  Little explorers will enjoy a space designed just for them while the adults will taste tropical libations hand crafted and delivered right to their pool chair.  Treat yourself to some R&R in the spa, or tee up a round of golf, both just steps from your room.  Dine in 10 unique outlets, including a grab and go pantry, and a lively sports pub plus monthly culinary special events.  Getting to the magic is easy with our scheduled shuttle service and you are just a short drive away from shopping, dining and nightlife.  Whatever adventures you are seeking on your next getaway, make Orlando World Center Marriott your destination.

I stayed her for one night in my annual excursion to Disney Springs to see the holiday decor. Room was clean and was upgraded to a pool view. Valet was quick and efficient. My mom has a handicap plackerd so I was charged self-parking rate for valet. Not sure if this is a new policy (I’ve stayed here many times in the past and never told this) but… Read more

Once again the Orlando World Centre Marriott delivered on an unforgettable stay. We left a Disney property to complete our holiday and chose the Orlando World Centre Marriott because I was here in March and loved it so much I wanted to come back. This property offers so much for families. It is absolutely a resort - not just a hotel. Upon check in, you receive a schedule of the daily events for the week. There were games, crafts and activities almost hourly. Add that to the amazing water park and pool area, and the fun turf lawn around the pool with games set out like cornhole and connect 4 to enjoy at your leisure. There is so much to do. Lots of dining options or food on the go. Spacious rooms and heavenly shower products. Thanks again Orlando World Centre Marriott. I will be back! Read less

It has a resort feel, the pool area is gorgeous! We chose self parking, which is a bit of a walk, but does have a shuttle to take you to and from. I can’t say enough about the employees who work here, they are friendly and so helpful! The room was spacious, and we had a balcony room overlooking the pool area. Our resort fee included the on-site water park, which has 3 water slides and a lazy river. We will be back! Read less

This was our first stay at Orlando World Center Marriott and we're so glad we chose this hotel! We were celebrating our daughter's birthday with her first visit to Disney World. The hotel is within close proximity to each of the parks AND has its own waterpark for when we needed a break from the Disney parks. The assistant front desk manager, Lorena Lebron, was so sweet in helping us make this first visit a fun and memorable family vacation. I am a Bonvoy Platinum Elite member and my husband is a Lifetime Gold Elite member. Lorena was able to upgrade us to the Two Bay Vista Suite which was very spacious with a dining area, living room with a pullout couch for our daughter to sleep on, a large balcony, a king bed in a separate room, and a nice bathroom. My husband and I like to sleep cold and that AC definitely did the trick. We were very comfortable the entire stay. When we arrived at the hotel, the staff was very nice, check in was quick and easy. They gave my daughter a cute little bag with some toys for a welcome/birthday gift! We were also greeted in the room with a little stuffed animal, drinks, and cookies. We decided to do the valet parking which was a little bit more than the self parking because self parking seemed like a very far walk (they also have a shuttle service) and too much after a long day at the park. This was totally worth it because we would just call down or use the app to request the car be pulled up to the front and it would be ready for us before we got down to the valet area. Because of our Bonvoy status, we were given the choice of 1,000 points or the continental breakfast each morning. We chose the continental breakfast and for 2 of the mornings, added the hot breakfast for $10 per person (our daughter was free since she's still 3). Breakfast was very good, they had a great selection and the fruit was very fresh and delicious every morning. We decided to check out the pool/waterpark areas one morning and we're honestly so happy we slowed down from the parks and enjoyed the pool. I'm really bummed we didn't get the lifeguards names because they were very friendly and helpful when we got a little lost and had some questions about when everything opened/closed. Our daughter LOVED the kid splash area, especially the little slide which she could not get enough of. It was a cool layout because the splash area was up a few flights of stairs and you could overlook other areas. They had great music playing just loud enough too. The lazy river was a fun and relaxing place to explore as well. Looking forward to exploring the main pool next time since it was closed this weekend for maintenance, but we expected this as the hotel let us know in multiple ways ahead of time. Overall, we felt very comfortable here, the staff from the front desk to the restaurants to the pool were all friendly and accommodating. There are so many amenities to take advantage of, especially the pool/waterpark areas. We hope to be back soon!! Read less

Awesome location for a birthday trip for my 10 year old granddaughter and me. Our plans included one Disney Park (Animal Kingdom) and at least one trip to Disney Springs. We used the bus that is provided (and included with your resort fee). Extremely easy to reserve and so convenient. One day we we dropped at Hollywood Studios and then took the Disney Skyliner to Epcot just for the fun of it. We then walked over to the Boardwalk Hotel and took a Disney bus to Springs. The lazy river is extremely nice, the pool is wonderful. We did enjoy the Friday night movie in the water. I would come here again anytime. Read less
