Orlando hotels fit for kids

When bringing your kids for holiday, sometimes it is hard to find somewhere to stay where kids will also enjoy. In Orlando, there are a few hotels where both parents and their children will enjoy their stay with the myriad of activities and facilities available there. You can always ask your shuttle bus driver to take you to any of these hotels as they would know how to get there with no trouble at all, and yet able to fit everyone in your party in the vehicle.

Kids would definitely enjoy staying at Disney Animal Kingdom Lodge, especially if they love animals. Tame gazelles and giraffes roam freely around the grounds of this lodge and this safari-themed hotel will delight kids and adults alike. Guests can also take part in educational activities held here such as craft-making, African drumming, and even mini lessons about the animals here. All these activities are provided free of charge and led by staff of the lodge.

If you are looking for a family resort, then Disney’s Wilderness Lodge would be fun. There is lake access, hiking trails, a standout pool and water slides and even kids activities organized daily. On top of that, there is also a giant gym as well as a fancy Western frontier decoration that kids will enjoy.

All kids have definitely heard of Nickelodeon, and they would definitely enjoy all the fantastic kid-themed facilities at Nickelodeon Suites Resort. Affectionately dubbed as the Nick Hotel, this place is made specially for families. The hotel has its rooms configured for family living with separate bedrooms, shared space and even kitchenettes. The on-site facilities here include 2 water parks, a shopping mall and live entertainment at the pool and everyone’s favourite place – Studio Nick.

Another Disney place kids would enjoy staying would be the Disney Port Orleans Resort Riverside. This hotel is designed to have the look and feel of an old town at Mississippi Delta and with its super fun pool complex and large rooms that can fit 5 persons, this place is value for money.

If you want something that is a little more luxurious, you can head over for a stay at JW Marriot Orlando Grande Lakes. Although it is not super kid-friendly, but there are also activities and facilities that kids will enjoy while the parents live the life of some luxury even with kids on tow. This hotel features large, spacious rooms as well as arts and crafts activities for kids to enjoy. The pool houses a lazy winding river pool and there is also Saturday evening film screenings available here for wholesome family fun.
