- In today's video I show you some good and affordable hotels right across the street from Universal Studios Orlando that are within walking distance to the parks. The few hotels that I show you are the Hyatt Place, The Holiday Inn & Suites and The Double Tree by Hilton. All of these hotels are good neighbor hotels with Universal Orlando and they all offer free shuttles to the parks. I time my walk from the hotels to City Walk and I do a little bit of sightseeing and exploring along the way. I also share some very helpful tips that can save you money when booking your next Orlando vacation. I make it to Universal Studios Florida and I share how long it took me from the hotels off Kirkman Road. Next I head inside of the park to talk about some new attraction updates, I need to renew my pass, have a butter beer and ride Escape from Gringotts. After some fun inside of Universal Studios Florida I start the timer once again and head back to my car at the Hyatt place and I share how many miles I walked to get back to the hotels. Thank you so much for watching, if you enjoyed this video please give it a big thumbs up!

We stayed at the DoubleTree Christmas 2020 for prestay prior to going to our Westgate. What I absolutely LOVED is that you can reserve your rides while in hotel room for Universal and IOA because you are considered being on park grounds!! Yes that means...you can reserve your spot for Hagrids❤❤
That’s amazing to know! Thank you so much for sharing that information.
I'm literally juggling 2 devices doing research on hotels 4 next week. Usually we stay at Adventura, but we're staying for 8 nights this time, so it's a little expensive(plus they sold out). Happy 2 know you can reserve rides @ that hotel.
Interesting to hear. I might consider that but you DO get a perk if staying at the hotels on Adventure Way as those are official Universal Hotels. I stayed at Cabana Bay and qualified for Early Entry, which is one hour before the normal morning crowds.
People are absolutely getting tired of the Disney greed so I'd love to continue to see more alternatives like this for keeping Orlando vacations affordable. Great video Dev!
Last time we did Disney for 5 days, then the Adventura for 3... We IMMEDIATELY decided to cut out Disney all together this trip! The ride are amazing & both kids can go on way more because most are virtual reality type rides. The lines move faster(a worker told me it's because there's more cars & multiple at 1 time that hold more people than Disney's do). Maybe if they updated a little!

Me & my friend always stay at the Double Tree 🌳 🌳 during our girls trip every year. We feel very safe there. No matter what time you get in during the night , workers are everywhere. They have a Starbucks on property. A ice cream/ candy shop . A grill / bar . Very nice property and when you check in , you get warm chocolate chip cookies 🍪.
Thanks for the info! My sister and I are planning to take some girls' trips here in the future.
Great information! Thank you!
Several years ago I toured all of the Disney parks in one day. I stayed all day, all the way to closing. When I existed the EPCOT entrance to the parking area, it took me one and a half hours to find my rental car. I was completely lost. I left The Disney complex 2:00am in the morning. Everyone was gone including the staff. That was the most adventurous time at Disney World for me.
Your video is very helpful! Thank you!
This information is gold! Thanks alot buddy!
Really helpful Dev, always honest and useful advice
Love the 2022 video vibes. Great series of videos. Thank you.
Thank you for thinking of most people who can't plunk down a chunk of change for a vacation. Lots of park vloggers don't pay much attention to what's affordable for most people. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. 👍❤️😁
Loving these hotel option video's Dev. Glad you had a great time at Universal
Great video Dev! So much useful information, you are making planning our next trip so much easier 😊 thank you
Love the honesty about the discount ticket place! I thought the same thing about the roof.
Just watched your video. Thank you, sir, for taking the time to make this video. In doing our research where to stay, you gave us lots of information!!! Thanks again!
I really appreciate this video. Very helpful tips, extremely informative.
That roof was a dead giveaway!
Hi Dev, just wanted to say a huge thank you for this vlog!! We stayed at the holiday inn last night to be close to universal and felt so confident walking the route to universal this morning after you explained it so well. As someone with anxiety the quieter security at valet parking was amazing. Thanks for the videos they have seen us through lockdowns and illnesses and something we all enjoy to watch as a family.
This was the perfect video that I needed to see. We are planning this year to visit Universal and this just made my day!
Thank you Dev for always bringing us all the information we all need to hear and see.
Hey Dev, thank you so much for steering us in the right direction. We are UOAP holders but we live in Naples. We have stayed at a few of the hotels you pointed out, not bad options. I 100% agree, we love Surfside and have found great deals for pass holders and FL resident rates. Thank you so much for looking out, love your content as always.
Stayed at the Double Tree and loved it. Walk to the park was easy. Thanks for your the Universal coverage!
Dev, you have easily become my favorite vlogger. Your content is so educational and relevant to what we need as vacationers. Thank you so much for your hard work on this. You have made me decide to plan a trip this year to Universal. Thank you! Tell Bianca hello! 👋🏻🙃🙂
I love the hotel videos you have been doing. It's good to see the variety of option, especially since Disney charges so much. I stayed at a Fairfield Inn near Universal last Summer and it was horrible. You are offering some good suggestions. It would be cool if you could do some staycations at these affordable hotels.
Great video as always big brother!!! I actually stayed at the Double Tree for new year!!! It was nice to be walking distance for the price!!! Thanks for your hard work my guy!!!
Thanks for this video! We’re planning a trip to Florida this year and are trying to decide between on property and off property. This is very helpful.
I approve this video! 👍🏽👍🏽 Very thorough and informative. Thank you very much PC Dev! Now, I'm off to the next Universal Studios video!😊
Loving the New Series Dev!! So important to show. As a Disney Travel Vlogger / Travel Agent I wish I lived closer to show our viewers these options. So Glad you are doing it. I can occasionally send out your links to show clients their options. These VLOGS are refreshing.
I definitely love this whole video. Thank you.
Thanks Dev . The family and I are definitely going to Universal Studios Orlando next year 2023 . Appreciate you bro 😎 👊🏽
My husband and I really enjoy these types of videos. We appreciate all of the information. Thank you.
great info Dev! Thanks!!
You r my go to guy for my trips, you help me choose me hotels much easier appreciate you
Excellent video, thanks Dev!
Thank you. Been thinking of about taking my family to Universal to hit Volcano Bay. With three kids, every dollar counts so this video is a BIG help. Thanks again.
Love the extra signs to let you know where you are going.. I need those. 😄
Thanks so much for this video! So informative. Excited for my visit there next month. Staying at the Hyatt House and happy to know it's walkable to Universal :)
I stayed a double tree and loved it!! Was there 2 weeks ago and didnt mind it at all! The walk was very easy
Thanks for the video. I’ve stayed at that Holiday Inn. Nothing spectacular, but nothing bad either. A place to lay your head and at a good price.
Our first visit to Florida in 1989 was 3 weeks staying at the Double Tree. It was known as the 'Twin Towers' then and Universal Studios was still under construction. We fell in love with Florida and stayed again at the same hotel for a pre-cruise stay in 2008, travelling on the Mariner of the Seas. We hope to return to Florida soon, but in the meantime keep up the great work with your videos. Sarah & Trevor from the UK
Yes! Thank you! I appreciate how you are more honest and relatable rather than other bloggers, who you can tell, refuse to make negative comments about the parks cause they’re scared they’ll loose their meal ticket. I also appreciate how you give your children privacy and don’t try to make money off of sticking a camera in their face 24/7.
We stayed at Cabana Bay a few years back, loved it! Always liked City Walk more than Disney Springs as well, such a good atmosphere. Cant wait to get back
Very helpful!! Thanks Dev!
A wee hotel recommendation - when I use to fly to Orlando for work (cabin crew with Emirates Airline in Dubai, UAE) we stayed at the Crowne Plaza Universal Boulevard, it's incredibly close to Universal and any time I've checked it out online and it's around $100/£74 a night and I would honestly recommend staying at this hotel. I've stayed around 9 times at this hotel between 2016 -
2019, its good value for money, hotel rooms are lovely and big, nice pool area with a tiki bar, good gym, staff are amazing, ticket office, shuttle buses to all theme parks in the area, ticket office for the theme parks and other attractions, short Uber drive from the outlet malls and Mall of Millena and is one block from International Drive so has good walking routes if you are wanting to go around that area. I have been planning to come back out on holiday in 2023 and would look at coming here, previously when coming out on holiday in 2006 & 2014 we have always stayed in self service condos/villas but would try this hotel. :)
This was very informative thanks Dev! : )
Love love love these videos! As a former CP, I’ve seen first hand guests get literally denied entry when they used one of those discount ticket booths. If it’s too good to be true, it probably is!!
My husband was on a jury where one of these bogus ticket places were being sued. They were found guilty, but they just pay the fine and keep suckering in people trying to save a buck.
So I'm really glad that you're doing the portable hotels near Disney and Universal. Even though I go down a couple times a year sometimes it gets overwhelming and confusing when you're trying to book your own hotel. So it's cool that you are out there on the street pointing stuff out so that way when we're Google searching or like oh it clicks together and it just makes the vacation planning a little bit more easier. Thank you so much and you should do a video on the trolley because I've never done the trolley and it might be an easier and fun way to get around that Uber and Lyft all the time
Thanks so much for this!
Dev, you have no idea how much I appreciate you posting this video. I valued this information thoroughly when I took a vacation to Orlando at the beginning of the year (2023). I even saw you go into Spaceship Earth at EPCOT while I was there in late January. Your down to earth approach in your videos is valued extremely.
I stayed at Doubletree and it was fantastic for what I wanted on my trip. The walk to Universal was practically nothing and I rather enjoyed it as the anticipation was building. I would stay there again in a heartbeat thanks to your video! You made a difference on my trip! Would love to meet you next time I am there. I'll reach out to you directly before I make the trip again. THANK YOU MAN!!!!
I stayed at Endless Summer Surfside June 2021. Very nice rooms. Good amenities and super nice staff. Was suppose to be $88/night before fees & taxes but for some reason was $112/night base price. Still affordable and would book there again.
Another great video, Dev! 👍🏽 It’s always great to see options outside of the on property hotels.
Thank you so much Scotia!
This is a great video, enjoyed it very much! I have to admit, I love the look and feel of Universal and so much is walkable and I have no interest to rent a car while we are there so that is a plus to me👍😁
Me and my husband actuary stayed at that Hyatt Place for HHN, did the same walk and all. For the price it’s great. We had a good experience. Nothing to really complain about. We are also Hyatt Members so we bounce around the Hyatt hotels. Our go to is the Hyatt on international drive Convention, BUT to be close to universal, those are definitely worth trying. Great video 👍🏻
This is so detailed and helpful. Thank u. Just subscribed
Cool vid dude 😎 👌
Good Evening! Love Orlando Florida my husband , daughter and myself stayed many times in Orlando Florida. .We stayed at hotels on International Drive and at the Blue Heron Beach Resort. On International Drive many restaurants are walking distance. We always have a good time in Orlando Florida. Enjoy and be safe. Thanks for sharing Universal Studios Orlando Florida.
great video. really appreciate the effort you've been putting into these "more affordable" videos!
Thank you so very much Michael
this was very helpful, thank you
I love you doing these videos!!! Great vlog dev
Thank you for this video. I've stayed at the Doubletree by Hilton at SeaWorld...I love it for the price and you can walk to SeaWorld. The amenities are awesome 2 pools, outdoor pool tables, chess and foosball, playground, miniature golf, restaurant and free continental breakfast in the market, gym. Last comfortable beds as well. For the price I love staying here.
Look at the Roof, lol! Details are important! Awesomeness!
So great to see these other options. Will be staying at Universal area next year after our Disney stay in May. Have stayed at the Doubletree SeaWorld before and that was really good. Have you heard of the food price increases at Disney ??! Another reason to look at other options for hotels!
We stayed at the DoubleTree years ago and absolutely loved it! Starbucks downstairs and a warm choc chip cookie upon arrival 😊
Your videos always put a smile on my face
Thank you for this. Even though we now live in Florida thanks to you and Bianca 😊, we would love to stay in a hotel for a few days and get that vacation getaway feeling..
Monique, staycations or baecations are the BEST!
Great videos!! But with all the AP resort discounts it's just great to stay at property. It's great how you helping people find affordable locations.
This came just in time. My boyfriend and I were just looking for a hotel near Universal lol. Love it! Thank you!
I hope I was able to make the big decision a little easier for you two. Have a great time Starr!
I stayed at the DoubleTree and actually loved it. We had no problems at all. Starbucks is on the property, bar lounge in the lobby, staff was wonderful. Comfortable room and bed. Highly recommend.
Hey Dev!! This is great since Im looking at going to Universal Orlando this year! Have an awesome fantastic day and stay safe!
I really appreciate it Brian!
Hey Dev the views from those hotels are amazing. i never been to Orlando Florida ever. I would love to come one day. Have great day.
We've stayed at the Hyatt place many times (previous Hyatt employee) and it's a great option with breakfast included! They have been great with service the last few years. Double tree is cool too but I would stay at dockside/Surfside before I ever go back to doubletree. Dockside was a great deal as an AP and I love the vibe there! Thanks for your videos. We watch them all :)
This is great, thank you! We are going in March & staying at Portofino, we are doing some Disney too, but you can't beat the Universal resort perks. we want to go back late Nov./early Dec. for our daughter's 11th bday😉⚡, so this is really helpful info!!😊
Thank you so much Brooke! The perks that you get by staying at a deluxe Universal Orlando resort is the absolute best and you can’t beat it.
Love your videos. So glad we got to ride shreck one more time before it closed. We went at pop Warner Night last month when they shut the park down for us til midnight. We had a blast. Go Oceanway Bucs. DUUUVAL 😁
Great video and very informative!
Thank you once again for an amazing video!! Love your charisma and love Bianca’s sweetness and beauty I’m bring my twins on the 12th for 8 nights!! First stop SeaWorld!! Love the 7 Seas Festival! Hope you see you guys!!! Thanks again, I love your info and honestly!!
Awe thank you so much Cher! I know you and the twins will have so much fun at SeaWorld!
Love your videos! I feel like we will be pros when we come to Florida this summer because of you! Lol 👍🏼 thank you for the video✨
I really appreciate that so much!!
Thank you!!! I will be going to Florida for my first time from Texas.
It’s good that offsite hotels are so near to universal! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks for the info
Very useful information! Thanks for sharing.
we stayed at the Fairfield Inn by Marriott near Universal. we were less than a mile to the Universal entrance. good neighbor hotel as well. great location awesome hotel. another good sharable hotel.
I love and appreciate this info (saved for future possible use!); I don't think I could ever "hate" - as you said - ANY of your videos! But I will say this: on my most recent Universal trip, Lowe's Royal Pacific Hotel was one of the nicest places I have ever stayed at all around. Total price gouge! But very, very nice. I would love to stay there again.
Thank you so much for this video. Extremely helpful. Your style of presentation makes me feel like I am there trying these out with you. Showing us all the details of how to navigate to and from hotels and parks helps reduce anxiety of the unknown. I am curious if you have a recommendation near universal and condo with multiple bedrooms for extended family trips. Thanks!
We stayed at Doubletree in July 2019. LOVED IT! You can walk to stores for snacks and drinks, but no refrigerators or microwaves in the rooms. it is a great option but would love to try Endless Summer.
First time I took my family to Universal we stayed at the Holiday Inn. We had to cross that road, with 5 kids, it was a little scary. We also found a door open in the garage to cut our walking time. Love these videos Dev, Thanks!
Man that road can be a little insane. I can’t imagine trying to cross with 5 kids!
Good morning happy new year to you and your loved ones dev I hope that 2022 brings you a lot of love and happiness I enjoy your channel because you are good man and you are sweetheart
Awsome information sledgehammered that like button stay safe awesome and blessed enjoyed and shared
I love that you are doing this
Hey Dev, when doing these kinds of videos, it might be nice to see a map picture in picture style of where you are. Really helps show the distances. Good videos!
You got it David, I’ll keep this in mind for the next video. Thank you for watching!
We had a 4 day trip last summer to universal and stayed at the Hilton garden inn and had maybe a 10-15 minute walk to and from the parks. It was fantastic, would definitely stay there again!
Thank you so much for doing this!!! When we go back we're definitely looking at Universal again instead of Disney. This was incredibly helpful! 🙌 also, any info on how long the Mummy will be down?
Great video again 👏
Thank you for doing this. It definitely helps a lot. I’m still trying to get my family to Orlando for the first time. Since Disney has priced me out Universal will be the move.
Fatima, you will make so many new and good memories at Universal Orlando. I hope you and the family will get the chance to visit soon. Disney is out pricing a lot of families.
Another great video with awesome info of the area. Have you done a video on Seaworld and the hotels around there? Also, Dev you do a lot of videos for us, your fans, but.. What about you? What made you start doing TH-cam? Which character were you, while working for Disney? How are you doing? How's Bianca doing? How did you meet? I'm not saying for you to do a video on your personal life but.. You do a lot for us but no one ever asks about you.. Look forward to answering any of these questions, maybe your fish too? Anyway, thank you again Dev for all your videos and information that you give us. Keep up the great work and stay blessed brother.. Hope you're having an awesome, fantastic day
I stayed in the double tree in May 2021, I love it, the stay there was smooth no problem whats so ever. The staff is friendly and helpful. The walk to universal studios was fast and easy. I already plan my next trip to Orlando and I'm staying at the double tree again. Recommend staying there for anyone that looking for a hotel.
Thank you for sharing Jocelyn!
Thank you for the info. I greatly appreciate all your helpful tips especially since I will going to Universal in the spring. I am planning on staying at Cabana Bay. I like how close it is to Volcano Bay.
I'm so glad you mentioned using the crosswalks to get to Universal. Those are very wide and busy streets and there are way too many pedestrians being hit in the tourist areas of Orlando. Also, Endless Summer Resorts have early park entrance.
Thanks Dev! As a woman travelling alone I really appreciate knowing a little more of what I can expect... Not sure I want to walk through that at night but it does not seem so bad, I'll keep those hotels on my " maybe" list.
So happy you did this video!! We are going there next month and staying at the holiday Inn!!..was wondering how the walk is and proximity to outlet mall. Also looking to do a day at Disney!
I love this series.
Will you do an in-depth review of any or all of these hotels? Would be good to see. Thanks! We love watching your vids and reviews.
Hi Dev big thank u for the tour . I am going to stay at the double tree in August only for 3Days as I going on my cruise . I have stayed in best western on international Drive .
We stayed at Holliday inn express a week ago and we liked it because it has microwave (universal hotels dont have) and free continental breakfast and lots of different juices, teas and milk, free parking and a shuttle. I recommend it 👌
