Orlando Trip
Has anyone stayed at the Sheraton Studio City hotel? Or Crowne Plaza? We are planning on going to Universal Studios but not Disney. Will be flying in and staying for 5 nights. Thanks!

There are three Crowne Plaza hotels in Orlando. I spent five nights at the Crowne Plaza Universal while attending a ship's reunion the last week of September and it was great. The hotel is new, (June 2002) and the employees were very courteous and helpful. They have a comp shuttle to some of the theme parks where you can get a connection to WDW.

If you are only going to Universal and Islands of Adventure, look into the on-site hotels. Guests at those hotels get "front of the line" passes. We were at Universal/IOA during a busy time but were able to see and do everything we wanted thanks to the pass. If the cost of the hotel is an issue, consider staying on-site for one night. You'll get two days of FOTL treatment (i.e., the day you check in and the day you check out) Check in early in the day - your room won't be ready but you'll get FOTL treatment at the park.
