Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center

“walk to icon park”

just a weekend getaway and met friends from another part of florida here as a central meeting point, nice location as far as proximity to icon park which is in walking distance as well as restaurants and universal city walk is just over I-4 for other entertainment and things to do.

Date of Stay: Monday, 3/9/26 - Sunday, 3/10/26 Length of Stay: 1 Night In a nutshell, the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center is the nicest Hyatt Place property that you will ever find; freshly renovated, in a great location with excellent staff. A great place for a quick and inexpensive stay in the I-Drive Area! Now, for my detailed review: I am extremely happy with my current stay at the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center as this property appears to have been VERY recently renovated Gone are the old carpeted floors that you experience at many older Hyatt Place properties, replaced by beautiful laminate flooring and fresh new furnishings! While for personal stays I usually stay at the more-luxurious Hyatt Regency Orlando just down I-Drive, when that was not available for a recent work trip, I opted to give the Hyatt Place a try, as it was much more budget friendly for work purposes. I will admit, the lower rate did concern me as there is often a reason for such low rates, but I am very happy to report no issues at this beautifully renovated Hyatt Place property! Located toward the North End of the I-Drive Corridor, the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center is very conveniently located to Icon Park -- and, in fact, I had a beautiful view of the Orlando Eye and other Icon Park Attractions from my room. One can easily walk -- or take the convenient I-RIDE Trolley -- to the many attractions and dining venues on I-Drive. Overall, a great location for budget-friendly travel! While this is not a "Resort" Style Property, it is still a great place for a stay on I-Drive. And, not being a "Resort," there is no associated "Resort Fee" like you will experience at most Orlando-area properties. But, due to its location in a high-tourism area, there is a parking charge of $20/day. This parking charge is handled via a QR Code and an independent parking company, but it is very easy to handle and is certainly less costly than many other locations in Orlando. As for amenities, the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center has all that you would expect of a Hyatt Place. Housekeeping is offered every other day and there is the usual "Placery" for Dining and "The Bar" for Drinks, offering excellent Happy Hour Specials. There is also the typical Hyatt Place Market for 24-7 grab-and-go items, as well as the typical Hyatt Place Breakfast that is Complimentary for all World of Hyatt Members. Finally, the property has an outdoor pool, much like that of most other Hyatt Place properties. As for WiFi, like most Hyatt Place properties, WiFi is complimentary. However, unlike many other Hyatt Place properties, it was pretty fast, with speeds in the 15-20mbps range throughout the stay. Such speeds allowed for easy work-from-room connections, and also allowed for quick and easy streaming via the ChromeCast that has become standard at all Hyatt-branded properties. Finally, a note on Guest Rooms at the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center. As I indicated, all rooms have been very recently renovated and feature a warm and relaxing feel with blue hues. The bed felt like new, and the corner pull-out sectional couch that is typical of Hyatt Place properties was quite comfortable. Additionally, the rooms feature a renovated wet-bar with a large mini-fridge and a microwave. Numerous photos have been included with this review so that you can see how wonderful the renovations have made this property! All-in-all, the Hyatt Place Orlando I-Drive Convention Center is an excellent and reasonably priced property that has recently renovated rooms and offers excellent service and staff. This is certainly a great place to stay for anyone on a budget that wants to experience all that I-Drive has to offer!

“Great staff, location, and breakfast, but...”

Great hotel, but didn't give a 5-star because the AC stopped working in middle of the night and had to walk down to front desk because couldn't get through on the phone. They were able to put us in room adjacent to our room for rest of the night. Manager said he would compensate with discounts. … more

Great hotel, but didn't give a 5-star because the AC stopped working in middle of the night and had to walk down to front desk because couldn't get through on the phone. They were able to put us in room adjacent to our room for rest of the night. Manager said he would compensate with discounts. I was surprised that I had to pay for parking, that was a bit annoying, but was told that the rate I paid included breakfast but not parking. So pay attention to what you're booking. Overall, we would stay here again in the future.
