With hundreds of hotels in Orlando, it can be difficult to select the perfect one, but the Hilton brand never disappoints in providing a comfortable and safe place to rest, along with a price that won’t break the bank. Even better, the Hilton Orlando is a resort hotel, providing more than just rooms for families. While it is home to many business travelers attending meetings in its convention rooms or at the neighboring Orange County Convention Center, the resort does an excellent job of dividing families and business travelers, and never the twain shall meet — unless business travelers are bringing their families with them to have some fun in the sun!

The resort’s large main pool features a water slide and lazy river, and the hotel is minutes away from Orlando’s biggest theme parks and the airport. The combination of amenities makes the Hilton Orlando an ideal choice for families.

The resort has 1,424 guestrooms and suites, all of which were updated in 2017.

Not all rooms are equipped with bathtubs, and those with tubs are not found in any certain section of the hotel. Be sure to call and request a room with a tub if you have a child who doesn't like showers. Connecting rooms are available for an additional fee. The hotel offers PURE Allergy Friendly Guestrooms for guests with severe allergy issues.

Guestrooms
Guests can select a unit with double queen beds for a family of four, with room for a small crib. Each guestroom comes with a 55-inch, flat-screen TV, small refrigerator, clock radio with MP3 player, Cuisinart dual-cup coffee maker and Wi-Fi access (included in your nightly resort fee; see "Planning & Tips").

Suites
Additionally, one- and two-bedroom suites are available with French doors departing the living room area from the bedroom area. The suites feature a king bed in the bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the living room area. There is a dining table and multiple televisions.

Resort Pool
The resort pool is heated and open year-round, with zero-entry points on both sides, a whirlpool, and a waterslide. Beside it is an 892-foot lazy river with fountains and water cannons. Six cabanas are available for a private, shaded and pampered setting. Cabanas included 37-inch, flat-screen TV's, small refrigerators, a card table and two chairs, two chaise loungers, ceiling fans and privacy curtains. All guests can receive poolside food and beverage service from Tropics Pool Bar & Grill.

Recreation
Hilton Orlando offers a tennis court with equipment rentals, basketball court and volleyball court. Make a splash in our new Splash Pad. Equipment is available from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Spa Treatments
Kids 12 and younger can enjoy the resort's spa with mini 30-minute manicures and pedicures. Kids 12 to 17 can enjoy the spa with a parent for a Swedish Massage or Deep Cleansing Facial. All spa treatments must be accompanied by an adult.

The resort provides dining at six onsite facilities. Children five years old and younger eat free with a paying adult at select restaurants. Kids menus are available at every restaurant.

Spencer's for Steaks and Chops
Spencer's for Steaks and Chops is one of Orlando's 10 best steakhouses, featuring steaks that have been aged for three to four weeks. The restaurant does not come cheap, and young kids may be pressed to find something they like, so save Spencer's for a date night. The restaurant is open for dinner, Tuesday through Saturday.

The Bistro
The Bistro is a casual eatery with seasonal, organic and local ingredients from Florida's coasts.

Tropics Bar & Grill

Snack on pastries, sandwiches, pizzas and sides made from scratch in our kitchen. Scratch Market is open 24-hours and attended by a team of passionate foodies and coffee experts.

David's Club Bar & Grill
David's Club Bar & Grill is the hotel's gastro pub, open daily for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is casual and features a simple American menu. It's a good bet for dinner with the kids.

In-Room Dining
In-room dining is provided from 5 a.m. to 1 a.m. While the menu for in-room dining is provided with a few selections in your room, you can also order any dish you may have spotted at any of the restaurants at the hotel. The Hilton Orlando has an impressive, central kitchen that cooks all restaurant items, and the staff is happy to accommodate your order.
