The best place to stay in Orlando near Disney is Park Royal Orlando hotel, in the neighboring city of Kissimmee.

Geographical framework and connection points

Kissimmee is a small city south of Orlando and is easily accessible from many places. It is in Florida's center, 235 miles from Miami. Kissimmee is the ideal place to stay on an Orlando vacation: the city has a wide range of restaurants, shops, supermarkets, and entertainment, and it is quiet and convenient. It is on Lake Toho's shore and has several parks and gardens perfect to rest a bit from the amusement park's bustle and fun.

Orlando is much more than Amusement Parks

Of course, Orlando's main attractions are the amusement parks. Walt Disney World and Universal Studios are the most famous. But there is much more to do in Orlando: discover the culture, gastronomy, and shopping in a cosmopolitan American city.

Old Town Kissimmee is a representation of a classic Florida city. Other places of interest are the Kennedy Space Center, the Great Magic Hall, and the Skeletons Museum, which surprises visitors with more than 400 different skeletons.

Shopping is an emblematic Orlando experience. Orlando International Premium Outlets is very close to Universal Orlando (about 15 miles from the hotel). Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets is closer to Disneyworld and only 11 miles from Park Royal Orlando.

Stay at Park Royal Orlando Hotel

Park Royal Orlando Hotel has a privileged location in the heart of Kissimmee's commercial area, making it one of Orlando's best hotels near Universal Studios (11 miles) and Walt Disney World (17 miles).

It is easily accessible from I-92. Numerous restaurants, bars, and convenience stores are just steps from the hotel. Its pool and terrace with sun loungers are comfortable. Park Royal Orlando is an excellent option to stay while enjoying all that Orlando has to offer.
