The Monumental Movieland as it is now known is a basic but clean 3 star Hotel. It is situated at the top end of I-Drive and faces Wet n Wild. It is close to loads of attractions, shops and restaurants. We were on the 3rd floor facing the pool. The room was small but clean,... more

This hotel was very clean and we had a really good time. It is located at the top of International Drive opposite wet n wild, so is in a great location for the parks, especially universal. There is a fantastic choice of restaurants, bars and attractions surrounding the... more

This hotel was absolutely amazing, we enjoyed it very much. Had loads of stuff to do, didn’t do the same things twice unless we wanted to. I would definitely encourage people to come here for their first holiday to Florida. The staff are very friendly and are willing to... more

Having been to Orlando twice before we knew that this hotel was just a motel and that there were not many facilities. Room was large and kept clean. Lots of painting going on when we were there, the ground floor is a bit tatty but the whole of the hotel guests have to... more

Nov 2004, Miss C Scott

Fantastic value great location from A TripAdvisor Member
We had a fanatastic stay at this hotel - Travel Date 1.04.05 to 15.04.05. Staff very helpful and the maid cleaning service we could not fault whatsoever. The Black Angus Steak House adjoined to the hotel is ok but if i were you i would eat at somewhere like Dennys (breakfasts fab). The restaurant is actually nothing to do with the hotel but is handy if your going with kids as its joined. The swimming pool was nice as well. I read up on this hotel and noticed a bit of hit and miss reaction to this hotel and that the pool gets to busy. This to me is rubbish. The hotel was really really good and the pool gets busy but nothing major, we always had a sun bed!. I rate this hotel to be a good 3 star plus and the location couldn't be better. We will definately be back and will use this hotel again. Especially great if you are on a budget we rate this hotel above average.
Not Too Bad... from Dmadaga
Just coming off a stay at the "Movieland". I typically prefer to stay in a suite when I'm in the area but this trip was only a weekend so I decided to give this hotel a try. I found the location to be perfect. I was attending the Bay Hill Invitational and the access to Universal Studios parking was convenient. Staff was friendly and attentive. Room was VERY clean and I was impressed with the promptness of the cleaning staff. I've read reviews regarding the noise and found the source to be heavy, large wooden room entry doors. I bet if the maintenance staff would simply adjust the speed the noise would be lessened. The worst... The air conditioner sounded like a Boeing 747! If it were later in the season and I had to rely on the A/C I would have not been able to stay in the room that I was in. Time for corporate spend a few bucks on an A/C upgrade! Al in all, not a bad place.
4th time. from mikeyuk_Wigan
Stayed here during Hurricane Jeanne last Sept/Oct 2004 This was the 4th time staying at this hotel and if you get the right room it's a very good base for your Orlando trip. I've always found the hotel rooms clean and tidy, there is a musty smell in the rooms which can easily be masked with a scented candle or plug in air freshener from Walgreens. By the way it's the air conditoning unit's that cause the smell , not that the roon is dirty.I have always found the staff very friendly and helpful with anything i have asked for bieng done with no problems.During the hurricane the hotel stood up very well to the battering it got , with just a few bits of guttering bieng the only damage. One of the only problems i could say i had was that first thing in the morning all the sunbeds around the pool had towels put on them just like in the Med and people wouldn't return to them till late afternoon. All in all i would stay here again but i never pay full package holiday price in the Broucher (sp)
Great central budget hotel from A TripAdvisor Member
Well I took my parents here for a trip with my sister and myself in November. We booked the Best Western on recommedation of location and value for money. Upon arrival we were greeted by friendly staff who showed us to our rooms. The rooms are neutral in colour and quite well equiped with tean and coofee makers, tv, good sized bathroom and large double rooms with the options of non and also smoking. Views are over the pool or onto the parking lot. There are self serve vending machines and ice machines on the floors and there is a coin operated laundry available for use. There is a very small gym.... a running machine...but hey american holiday...not really a gymers paradise. The location is fab.... right across the way is wet and wild and if like us, you don't drive then Universal is a quick 15-20 min walk away or $10.00 cab ride(but book your own). If looking to eat away from the hotels Black Angus, which is ok but to meaty then I really recommend 2 places for great breakfast... Just up on the drive- left of the hotel...is IHOP- International House of Pancakes serving up massive breakfasts, all off the menu. Then there is the Ponderossa to the right and down the drive, here it is a buffet with everything and I mean everything at $3.00 per head. So if you looking for comfort..bneds here great and location A sure hit!!!
Mixed Feelings from Traveller113
My feelings are very mixed about this hotel. I stayed here a year or so ago. The staff in this hotel were extremly unhelpful and quite rude. The room we were given stank of damp, eventually got another room. I paid a fortune for this hotel with flights with Airtours and for the money it was just not really acceptable. Saying that I have seen this hotel on some sites for some really reasonable prices. The pool was pretty nice and the location is the best thing about this hotel. You are so close to everything and right over the road from Wet n Wild. Personally I thought it was fairly quiet even in the Summer. It is the service that really let's this hotel down, the staff when I was there really do need to learn some manners. 'Even an extra pillow was way too much trouble' Saying that for the right price I would stay in this hotel again just for the location. Yeah my room was damp but it was clean.
Great hotel for what it cost from A TripAdvisor Member
We spent 10 nights from xmas eve to after New Years in Orlando. We got a really really good deal on the hotel and it was great - helpful staff, clean room and excellent location on International drive. If you're looking for luxury its not this hotel. But if you have a relatively low budget but want value and cleanliness this is good.
Budget hotel, great value from A TripAdvisor Member
Well its nothing special, but it was a great price, great location for the attractions. International Drive has all you need as a tourist. Well worth a stay for a few days.
Definitely would not stay there from A TripAdvisor Member
We booked a no-smoking room by phone. Upon our arrival we were told that all they had available was a non-smoking room. I told them that it was not exceptable as we had been assured that we had reserved a no-smoking room. Management told us that this was just a request and could not be guraranteed. They also said that our credit card would be charged regardless. Funny, we were not told that by phone. Where I come from that is called "bait and switch" and is illegal. I asked a few other Best Western locations if they had ever heard of such a policy and they said no. I called the main headquarters for Best Western and was told that basically their was nothing that could be done because they were and independent franchise. Hmmmm. Like I told the main office, if I order a truck from Ford and tell them I want a diesel instead of a gasoline engine, that is not a request. I have paid for, and am expecting a diesel engine upon delivery. Should be the same for hotel rooms as well--go figure. I figure that we are done with Best Western Movieland.
Would not recommend from Hens3
Myself and two friends have just stayed at this hotel for 1 week, and boy were we glad to get out! It was noisy, dirty and the staff were most unhelpful. We had booked a non-smoking room, but we were place on the ground floor at the back doors, in a smoking room. Lets be sure about one thing, we will not recommend this hotel to anyone, if anything, we will be telling people to avoid it at all costs. We have stayed in other Best Western Hotels throughout Ireland and UK and had not problems.
stayed here during Hurricane Charley from A TripAdvisor Member
These were average accomidations, and we were here before, during and after Hurricane Charley. We stayed for 5 days, visiting Disney. Granted, we had electricity and water at all times after the hurricane, we were the only hotel without cable afterwards, which made it hard to tell if the Parks (Disney, universal & sea world) were open. We were unable to do our laundry, because every single washer and dryer were broken, and remained unrepaired. Our room keys had to be reprogrammed every day of our stay, and somtimes 2x per day. The management did try to acomidate our needs however, and would probably stay here again, the rooms were very clean, the pool looked nice (although due to the hurricane, we were unable to use it) and the restaurant was ok.
