Flying to Orlando with my son, can anyone recommend a nice, reasonable motel please?

I got a great AAA rate at the Spring Hill Suites in Lake Buena Vista. It has good reviews on Fodors and Traveolocity. There is also a Faifield Inn and a Marriott hotel in the same complex. Look at www.marriottvillage.com for a view of the property.

There is also a complimentary shuttle to the parks. Enjoy your trip.

I can only direct you to another site, www.disboards.com is a message board devoted to WDW. They have a separate board specifically for off-site properties.

Also, www.mousesavers.com has a lot of discounts available


Happy planning! And have a great vacation!

We stayed at the Hampton Inn Maingate East and it is very affordable, clean, free continental breakfast, in-room safe and shuttle transportation to Disney. I would definitely stay there again. Ask for a room facing the pool. With the Orlando Magic Card you can get a discounted rate.

We just came back from Orlando, we stayed at the hotel royal palace inside the disney downtown area. It was great , nice pool, great staff, also higly recommended on DISBOARDS too. We got rae of 55 a noght on expedia, this was during presidents week so it should be lower in less busy time.

Thanks to all 'replyers!' Great helpful comments. My son (19) & I drifted apart last year (teenage problems) & this is a week for the 2 of us to re-bond! Moira X

How wonderful. Good luck and enjoy your stay in Orlando.
