Rosen Inn or Rosen Plaza?

[Rebecca_]

Hi everyone,

I'm about to book a budget 1 week trip for April with BA and I'm torn between the Rosen Plaza and the Rosen Inn International. There is only about £15pp difference in price.

I know the Rosen Plaza is the better hotel but we're only wanting to do Universal and things on International Drive this trip. We won't be hiring a car and so can't decide which hotel is in the better location.

Any opinions?

Thanks

Can't speak for the Rosen Inn as I've never stayed there but I have stayed at the Rosen Plaza.
It's a lively hotel and if it's only £15 pp that's where I'd be staying.
We're staying next week for 6 nights, The Pointe is only a few minutes away with a variety of restaurants and a few shops.
There's a CVS next door where you can pick up drinks and snacks.
An Uber to Universal I think would be around 7 dollars

You could also buy Iride passes or Lynx passes to get up and down I drive

Plaza ,for the location.Although I have never stayed at the Rosens ,I stayed at the international when it was the old Quality Inn. It's very busy up that end , way busier than down by the pointe and it can be quite noisy too.I think the petrol station has now gone ( not sure though)so may be quieter now.But the Pointe end has better places to walk to ,to eat etc.

Weve stayed at both and the Plaza is much much better for us the Inn is a motel the Plaza is a hotel

Stayed at all the Rosens on I Drive - Plaza is a better hotel than Inn / Pointe / International and on a par with Centre.

In terms of location everyone seems to prefer the South end but a lot of places at Pointe have closed (Johnny Rockets / Copper Canyon / Tommy Bahamas) and i think the area around the Orlando Eye / Icon has better restaurants.

Plaza is the much better hotel though - i would stay there.

Great choice.

We have stayed at the Plaza a few times before moving to Disney and will be staying there for a week again next year. Fabulous hotel and great location, easy to walk to the Olive Garden, Walgreens and Pointe Orlando is across the road.
