The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Universal Inn

Your Concert-Ready Stay Near Universal Orlando

Modern, affordable, and newly renovated, the Best Western Plus Universal Inn puts you just three minutes by car from the entrance of Universal Orlando Resort—perfect if you're catching a show at nearby venues. This laid-back hotel offers a relaxed, convenient base with comfy rooms, a refreshing outdoor pool, and free perks like breakfast and WiFi.

Each guest room is equipped with a microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker, and cable TV with HBO, giving you everything you need to fuel up and chill out between concerts and sightseeing. Whether you're heading to a festival or a big-name tour stop, this hotel's location and value make it a top pick.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and this hotel delivers. You're only a few minutes from some of Orlando's most popular venues, and the area offers easy access to rideshare services and taxis for late-night returns. Guests love the peaceful atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind after a loud night. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout, you’ve got flexibility to fit your schedule. Plus, the free WiFi and in-room coffee help you recover in comfort.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a budget-friendly place near the action
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples making a weekend escape out of a show
  • Fans wanting a quiet place to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have a full-service restaurant, it offers a daily continental breakfast—perfect after a late night—and the surrounding area has a variety of walkable dining options. You’ll find late-night eats and fast food nearby, and with a microwave and fridge in your room, leftovers or snacks are easy to manage.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more of a quiet base than a party spot, you're just a short drive from Orlando nightlife hubs. Whether you’re looking for bars, lounges, or late-night bites, there’s plenty nearby. Plus, being close to Universal means you’re also near themed bars and entertainment at CityWalk.

What People Say

Guests rave about the location, clean rooms, and friendly staff. Many mention how convenient it is to get to Universal and concert venues, and appreciate the added value of free breakfast and parking. The recently updated rooms also get high marks for comfort and cleanliness.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the breakfast selection is basic, and the pool area is on the smaller side. If you're looking for luxury or on-site nightlife, this may not be the spot—but for the price and location, it’s a solid win.

The Bottom Line

A top choice for concert-goers who want a clean, quiet, and affordable stay just minutes from the music scene in Orlando.

Ok stay

Liked: The beds were comfortable. The only amenities was breakfast. There was no soda machines, so all you could drink was water. It's the bus, it's universal, there was only one pickup and one drop off. The AC on the bus seemed not to work. So, very, very hot. And yeah, a lot of noise while you're trying to sleep. So did not get not much sleep. The second night.
Disliked: The fact that there's no amenities in the afternoon for a drink.

A cool place to lay...

Liked: Very close and convenient distance from the theme parks!
Disliked: The bathrooms were shabby tbh. Things were rusted and falling apart but for $400 you get what you pay for.

Pleasant

Liked: Location and staff was great!
Disliked: Breakfast was less than you would expect from a 2 star motel, pictures of the property show a waffle station that was MIA. Our room on the first floor 109 had a major leak in the window surrounding trim,that turned into wet carpet after an afternoon rain shower...which explained the damp musky feeling and smell in the room. We left next day so no problem but obviously the "new remodel" was a hack job! I don't recommend. Pool was also very dirty.
