Plan your visit to Universal Orlando Resort™

Universal Orlando Resort™ caters for the whole family, with experiences to suit young and old alike. The recent opening of DreamWorks Land, dedicated to beloved characters such as Shrek, Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda, and the development of Minion Land, now offer a wider range of activities and interactive attractions perfectly suited to toddlers and young children.

With the arrival of Epic Universe, families can also enjoy new immersive experiences designed to amaze all ages. While some thrill-seeking attractions are more popular with ages 8 and up, new areas like DreamWorks Land and Minion Land make Universal Orlando Resort™ a magical destination from an early age!

Staying at a Universal Orlando Resort™ hotel offers a host of benefits that make your visit even more memorable and convenient. Here are the main benefits:

1. Proximity to the parks

All Universal hotels are located on site, just minutes from the theme parks, making access quick and easy. They all offer free shuttles, water cabs or walking paths directly to the parks, avoiding the stress of traffic and parking.

2. Early entry to the parks

Universal hotel guests enjoy early access, every day, 1 hour before the official opening for certain parks and attractions, such as The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ and Minion Land. This is a major advantage for enjoying the most popular attractions with reduced waiting times.

3. Express Pass included in some hotels

If you stay at one of these three Signature Collection hotels, Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, Hard Rock Hotel or Loews Royal Pacific Resort, you’ll receive a free Unlimited Express Pass, which reduces queue times at many attractions. This benefit can represent considerable savings and better optimization of your time.

4. Themed immersion and exceptional comfort

Each hotel has its own unique theme, from the Mediterranean charm of the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel to the rock vibe of the Hard Rock Hotel and the tropical colors of the Loews Sapphire Falls Resort. You’re immersed in a magical, exotic atmosphere, even outside the parks.

5. Planning made easy

Universal hotels offer convenient services such as free delivery of your park boutique purchases directly to your hotel. What’s more, hotel staff can help you plan your day, make restaurant reservations or answer any questions you may have to maximize your experience.

6. Exclusive experiences and activities

Universal hotels often offer exclusive activities such as pool parties, outdoor film screenings and unique culinary experiences. This allows you to enjoy moments of relaxation and entertainment with family and friends after an intense day in the parks.

7. Options for every budget

Universal Orlando Resort offers a range of hotels to suit different budgets. Whether you choose a budget hotel like Universal’s Endless Summer Resort or a more luxurious option, you’ll enjoy the exclusive benefits offered to all Universal hotel guests.

8. Access to Epic Universe in the future

With the upcoming opening of Epic Universe, Universal hotels are strategically located for easy access to this highly anticipated new park, offering even more value to your stay.
