- I had a wonderful stay at this now Sonesta hotel. I am always thrilled to stay at Sonesta. Being from Miami and traveling a great deal to New Orleans and Boston, it is a name that I trust.
The hotel was extremely convenient to the business that I had planned in Orlando. The service and the staff were friendly and responsive. They explained that the hotel is going through some major upgrades too. I enjoyed my stay with really large rooms, but I'll be sure to be back again. « less

- My wife and I drove over from our home in Sarasota for a Valentine's Day date night. Dinner, Phantom of the Opera, and a night in Orlando. The show was downtown so we Pricelined it and got a great deal at the Sonesta. While not new by any means, the staff was friendly, the room was clean and all in all, we completely enjoyed our brief stay. The only downside was the twelve bucks we had to pay for parking, but I guess that is the deal these days at most decent hotels. « less

- My spouse and I stayed at Sonesta after attending a conference. The room is clean, but the tv was old and the remote control was broken. We were very tired, awake since 4am (traveled from west coast) and needless to say that needed to sleep. At 2am the next door guests arrived drunk (or high...or both) and were very loud, totally disrespecting the silent time. We called the security desk and after a couples attempts to stope them I guess they gave up. They offered us to move to another floor but please, it was (by then) 3am, we were exhausted, our belongings unpacked...so I suggested them to change the noise guests and they told me that they could not...
Very disappointing that we had to be punished for being the quiet guys...at 4am they finally split up and fell asleep.
The walls DO NOT block the noise and you can hear every single laughter, toilete flush and conversation in hallways. Horrible isolation.
IF YOU WANT TO REST DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL. « less

- Stayed here the weekend the hotel was converting from a Sheraton to Sonesta, tripadvisor needs to change the name on here.
I had stayed at the hotel 2 years ago and had had a great stay with a nice corner room. This time, no corner room. Stay was fine, i really like the rooms here, with the brown leather couches and ottoman/coffee table things. Nice bathrooms too, although while the shower head had terrific water pressure it was only stuck in one position that wasn't particularly well suited for my body frame. They had changed out the Sheraton amenities for some Italian one, Peloggia or something? Seemed decent, but not particularly memorable. The rooms had coffee makers and flat screen TVs which were modern and nice.
All in all, its a good hotel, the only thing is, while it is in downtown Orlando, its at the very top end by Lake Ivanhoe, and probably too far a walk to walk down to Wall Street amd Church Street where most of the office buildings, restaurants, bars, etc.. are. We had a wedding at the Grand Bohemian, and it would have been nice to walk, instead drove, parked on the street by the Grand Bohemian, ran out of coins, and got a $22 parking ticket, which sucked.
Before the switched out of Sheraton, they added a Link (free computers/printers in the lobby), which I've noticed at other Sheratons and really enjoy.
The hotel has an attached garage, but save the money, there is plenty of on-street parking available, and unlike the area by the Bohemian, there are no meters to feed.
Did not eat at the restaurant, visit the pool, or avail ourselves of any of the other features of the hotel. Had minimal interaction with the staff, who seemed nice enough.
I like staying at Sheraton/Starwood properties and don't know the Sonesta brand, so now that the hotel has changed, I'll probably stay elseware next time I'm back to downtown Orlando. « less

Alarm clock rang when set, wake up call came at appointed time, food service in restaurant was very good, bed was extremely comfortable!
The service level at the hotel was off the charts great! Front desk was wonderful as well. The value of the hotel is unmatched in the area and I look forward to returning soon!
Starbucks in the lobby was a great plus as well! Wi fi worked flawlessly, elevators were quick and all worked. « less
