The Spotlight on Castle Hotel Autograph Collection by Marriott

Fairytale Style Meets Live Music Convenience in Orlando

Modern elegance meets whimsical design at the Castle Hotel Autograph Collection by Marriott, located on buzzing Universal Boulevard in Orlando. Just minutes from major music venues and the Orange County Convention Center, this boutique-style hotel blends charm and comfort in a location that’s ideal for concert nights and weekend getaways. From its castle-inspired architecture to its rooftop terrace and fitness center, it’s got everything you need for a memorable stay.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being only 1.7 miles from the Orange County Convention Center and a short rideshare away from downtown Orlando’s major venues, Castle Hotel puts you right near the action without the chaos. After a show, retreat to quiet, soundproofed rooms or recharge on the sun terrace. The 24-hour front desk means no worries about late arrivals, and private parking makes it easy if you're driving in for a big gig.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish place to crash after a show
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert
  • Couples enjoying a music-filled weekend away
  • Fans seeking a calm, upscale spot to wind down post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want boutique vibes

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant and bar keep the vibe going post-concert, with a cozy spot to grab a late bite or toast the night. While 24/7 room service isn’t listed, the in-room coffee machines and nearby eateries within walking distance make up for it. Breakfast is available on site—perfect for those late mornings after a long night out.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself leans more tranquil than rowdy, you're within minutes of International Drive’s bustling nightlife, from bars and lounges to themed spots with live DJs. For something low-key, the on-site bar offers craft cocktails in a relaxed setting.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s unique castle theme and boutique atmosphere, calling out the clean, comfy rooms and friendly staff. Many highlight the location near attractions and music venues, as well as the peaceful ambiance after a busy night. The rooftop terrace and fitness center also get consistent praise.

Areas for Improvement

While the theme is a hit for many, a few guests found the decor a bit quirky or dated. There’s no mention of late check-out flexibility, so it might be worth checking in advance if you plan to sleep in after a show.

The Bottom Line

This is a charming, conveniently located hotel that offers a relaxing retreat just minutes from Orlando’s top concert spots.

Passable

Liked: Pool closed too early in the night and was not able to soak in the hot tub after walking at the theme parks all day.
Disliked: I chose to extend my stay 2 times on this trip and was only informed after the booking that the hotel was not part of the Universal Studios hotels for early entry to the theme parks. Had I known before I would not have extended my stay at this hotel and would have rather booked at a partnered hotel. I was stuck and not able to cancel my booking.

Not that good

Liked: •Great location — walking distance to the aquarium and just minutes away from the park we needed, with plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby.•Cute and cozy rooms — nicely designed and fairly clean.•Decent pool — a nice option to relax after a long day.
Disliked: Parking is $35 per night, which is outrageous. If I had known that in advance, I wouldn’t have booked this hotel.•The comforters definitely need replacing — the filling inside was clumped and uneven.•No housekeeping during our stay, even though we stayed more than one night — which is unusual and disappointing.•The hotel doesn’t live up to its 4-star rating, at least not in terms of service or comfort.Unfortunately, I wouldn’t stay here again.
