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.

Decent Basic hotel. Rooms were clean and adequate. Grounds nicely landscaped, pool area had lots of chairs and stocked towels. Fairly central Location.

Decent Basic hotel. Rooms were clean and adequate. Grounds nicely landscaped, pool area had lots of chairs and stocked towels. Fairly central Location. Our main complaint was the traffic noise, its very very close to a major road and one side of the hotel and the pool area faces that road. The other side faces the large quiet parking lot, and I'm sure that side was quieter. Second complaint was the advertised shuttle service was not as useful as I'd hoped. The first shuttle to Disneyworld is at 9:55 am, to me that was fairly late in the day. The last pick up from Universal is at 7:20. So we couldn't use the shuttle for either Disney or Universal. My bad for not checking the shuttle schedules, but I had specifically choose this hotel because of that service and it was not useful to us at all. Read less

It’s very well located with many restaurants around, very close to Disney Springs and on the other side of I4 you have the Premium Outlet and a Catholic Church. Close to all parks. My room wasnt renovated but it was ok. The bad thing was the internet. It wasn’t powerful enough. Parking is free and there is no resort fee. Read less

Hotel hasn’t been updated in 50 years. Dirty, stained carpet. Decor untouched since 1970. Feels dirty and unsafe. Was led to believe this was a 3.5 star hotel but not remotely close. I’m shocked hotels like this still exist in such a tourist-friendly, competitive area like this.
