Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista

This was our first time staying. We stayed for 2 nights, and we would 100% stay again. Parking was cheap, and it was nice having security at the gate. We did not see any bugs contrary to other reviews. However, are there any hotels truly free from bugs in Florida? The location was good. Just under 2 miles to Disney Springs and very close to I4. It was not fun getting out of the hotel parking if you had to turn left. Doable, but not always easy. Our room was on the inside of the hotel, so it was quiet. The top floor was nice, but having to hike to and from the elevator with a sleeping 4 year old at midnight wasn't fun. Our double queen room was nice and big. It had a full size safe and mini fridge which was nice. There was plenty of room for luggage, too.

Really enjoyed our stay here! The hotel is super close to Disney and great for the price. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable, and the staff friendly and helpful. We loved relaxing by the pool after a long day at the parks. Simple breakfast, easy parking, and everything felt well kept. Would definitely stay again for another Disney trip!

I stay at the Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista a few times a year. The beds are very comfortable and it's in a quiet location. Even facing the highway and with the ac on, the only thing you may here is a motorcycle. This was the first time I have a complaint about cleanliness. The shower needed a very deep clean and the ceiling needs to be painted. They have now started charging $10/night for parking which is a huge bummer because there was no mention of that when booking the room. The location is fantastic. About 5-10 minutes from Disney springs. They are a good neighbor hotel so they offer shuttles to the parks. The pool area is always clean and well maintained. Staff are always friendly and efficient. For my 4th review mentioning this though, 2 double beds should always have 4 pillows on each bed, not 3!!!!! The pillows are way too small to only have 3 on a bed.

The rooms are a bit outdated but generally clean. We booked through Agoda, which clearly stated that a buffet breakfast was included. However, upon check-in, the front desk informed us that the “included breakfast” was actually a grab-and-go option — a pastry, juice, and a banana — which wasn’t what we paid for or even knew existed. When we showed them our booking confirmation showing buffet breakfast, they insisted we’d need to pay nearly $20 per person per day if we wanted it. Thankfully, Agoda’s support stepped in, confirmed the hotel was in the wrong, and refunded us nearly $300 for the inconvenience. During our stay, we saw several other guests having similar issues at the front desk — being placed in cheaper rooms than what they booked or facing the same breakfast problem — which was concerning to witness. On the positive side, this hotel is affordable and well-located as a base for visiting the Disney Parks, Disney Springs, and the outlet mall (which you can actually see across the highway). If you’re just looking for somewhere to sleep between park days, it does the job. There are also plenty of restaurants within walking distance — Olive Garden, Miller’s Ale House, Hooters, Chili’s, etc. Most Uber or Lyft rides to the parks cost $10 or less each way. We used the free shuttle a couple of times, but the schedule wasn’t ideal — it either left too late or came back too early. It’s also a shared shuttle with other hotels, so it can get crowded. Overall, I think 3 out of 5 stars is fair. The hotel really needs to improve its customer service — guests shouldn’t have to fight to get what they’ve clearly booked. A little effort and understanding would go a long way.

Just returned from Rosen Inn Lake Buena Vista last week. Our stay was very pleasant. Room was suitable for our needs. Used the restaurant for a couple of breakfasts and an evening meal. Food quality and quantity was excellent. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Location was good for all the theme parks and shopping centres, etc.
