Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista

Lake Buena Vista, Orlando

Virgin rating

The hotel

We think the Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista offers excellent value as well as being so close to Disney. In the 23 acres of landscaped grounds is a lake which is home to a variety of Floridian bird life. You will find all the great family amenities in your room, just beware you may just get too comfortable! There are some great deals in the family restaurant here, and a free shuttle bus will take you to the four Walt Disney World Resort theme parks. Disney springs is very close too — with a fantastic array of restaurants, bars and shops there.

I’ve been coming here for 26 years - first trip with my family when I was 4 years old! My grandparents were coming for a few years before that too. We’ve always loved it. The location is absolutely amazing for the price. Very convenient for Ubers to Disney, and as well as the Boardwalk Restaurant (where we had breakfast most mornings), you’re also… Read more
I’ve been coming here for 26 years - first trip with my family when I was 4 years old! My grandparents were coming for a few years before that too. We’ve always loved it. The location is absolutely amazing for the price. Very convenient for Ubers to Disney, and as well as the Boardwalk Restaurant (where we had breakfast most mornings), you’re also near tonnes of Restaurants - Chili’s, Ale House, IHOP, Olive Garden etc. The staff were all super friendly. A special shout-out to Jill who we have known for many years now, who is so friendly and a very attentive server. Rooms cleaned every day, and very comfy beds. I was honoured to bring my wife here for the first time too. Can’t wait to return! Read less

This hotel offers some good and some bad, but ultimately we would not return. The good: The location of the hotel is good, we didn’t rent a car and decided against the free shuttle bus. Using Ubers from the hotel was not expensive and we would be at our park of choice within a short period of time. The hotel shop is very convenient and offers a wide range of items. We used it daily to purchase drinks and breakfast for our room. The Bar has a limited food menu, but what we had was good value for money and very nice. The bad: The rooms we had were extremely dated and we never had a single good nights sleep. The beds are extremely soft, as are the pillows, it was difficult to get comfortable. We found bugs in are room on a daily basis, mainly in the bathroom but would see them on the bed side table. The safety deposit box in our room did not work upon arrival and it took us several days to get sorted. This may not be important to some people but we like to keep things such as our passports and money in there. It was finally sorted at 11pm at night when we should have been resting. Simply not good enough. Finally, the staff were not very enthusiastic at all. We visit the US regularly and always receive a warm welcome, feeling valued as guests. We never got this here. Again this may not worry some people and I understand that, but for us it’s the small details. Read less

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL!! This hotel is NOT clean and has ants/bugs in multiple rooms. Woke up first morning to a bug crawling across counter. Then that evening when we returned from the park there were ants on the desk/counter top. Moved to another room that we NOT clean and had sticky stuff on the desk. were moved to another room which too was dirty. The next evening moved to another room and it had ants on the desk area and a bug on each bed. Finally moved to the last room and all seemed good until waking up the next morning to find bugs in the sink. If I could give a -10 star I would. I did speak to a manager but they would not give a full refund. There were also ants in the rooms of the ones we were traveling with. After reading some of the other comments it seems there have been ants before. This is a real issue. Read less
