What guests think

Candlewood Suites - Orlando - Lake Buena Vista by IHG draws travelers for its spacious, suite-style rooms with kitchens, friendly staff, and a convenient location close to Disney Springs, parks, and plenty of restaurants and shopping.

Recurring drawbacks include extra nightly fees (parking and a destination charge), limited housekeeping (no daily service, self-serve towels/trash), a once-daily shuttle, and occasional maintenance or cleanliness issues like elevators, A/C, hot water, odors, or pests.

I will stay here again. The hotel is clean and the lobby good. It’s closed to eating places and 5 minutes away from Disney Springs. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The parking was $20.00 a day if you drive or rent a car. They have plenty of parking spaces.

A full-sized fridge is not what you would usually expect to see in a room, but it was a nice touch. I didn’t hear another person outside my room in the hallway or next door although I know they were there. The room was clean, well maintained, comfortable, and was stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The parking garage was a nice surprise to me. I stayed here for the convenience of EPCOT.

Front desk staff were all super nice and polite. The hotel is in a great location and is not fancy but decent, except for the cockroaches!! That is discussing and unsanitary. We wiped down the counters with Clorox wipes every time we entered the room and every morning when we were getting ready. Exterminating is crucial!!! I have visited Orlando many times and have never stayed at a hotel with cockroaches.

Room smelled badly of mildew. Upon inspection we found water damage around the window,mold on ceiling in shower and more water damage also in the bathroom that was from the ceiling to halfway down the wall. Front desk called to check if all was good and I told them about it at that time. Was told they would make a note for their manager. We should have insisted for a room change but after driving for 14 hours we just wanted to lay down and sleep. Daughter woke up not feeling well stuffy runny nose, sneezing and chest tightness.Had to use her rescue inhaler and do a breathing treatment on the road. Yes we travel with those things she has asthma. Wonder could it be coincidence or the room as she was in the bed closest to the ac. Needless to say we will not be staying here ever again.

The hotel overall was good. I had issues in my room that the bathroom was pretty dirty and the room smelled musty. And the ac leaked really bad. I advised the front desk where the guy pretty much shrugged it off and said oh well. We dealt with it because we were on the first floor and we had already unpacked and settled into our room. I hope that guys is no longer working the front because he really needs work on his customer service skills.

Giving an overall of 4 stars because the front desk staff were wonderful, the location was perfect and the rate we got on the room was so low that there were really no comparables in the area. However, we wouldn’t return. The room was clearly never subject to a deep clean since construction; the tile grout was disgusting. Maids appear to do a good job on the regular clean but we stayed 10 nights and they only cleaned the room once. The process for garbage and towels is to leave them outside your room and pick up fresh towels at the front desk daily. This results in a hallway full of other people’s dirty towels and garbage to walk by.

I had a great stay at Candlewood Hotel. The room and hotel very well-maintained. The hotel was also impressively quiet, which made for a peaceful and relaxing experience throughout my stay. One of the biggest conveniences was the parking garage. It was easy to access, well-lit, and always had available spaces. I really appreciated not having to worry about street parking or long walks to the entrance. The location couldn’t have been better. It’s situated close to restaurants, such as Twin Pines, shops like a Disney souvenir store and other essentials like 7/11 and Starbucks, making it easy to get around without a long drive. Unfortunately, upon arrival, we found old food left in the refrigerator, which was an immediate red flag. The freezer also had ice scattered everywhere. To make matters worse, the microwave had splattered food inside, clearly missed during the cleaning process. I called the front desk and they immediately switched our room. They were very apologetic. Overall, I highly recommend Candlewood Hotel for anyone looking for a quiet, and conveniently located place to stay with hassle-free parking.

Staff was rude, housekeeping and staff would just walk in without any knocking before entering, there was a roach problem, dirty with past guests things in the room. I am now sick from mold in the ac units. They tried not to compensate so now I will dispute with my bank.

We stopped at the desk for anything we ran out of and it was supplied immediately. The kitchen had everything we could want. I would reccommend this hotel to anyone, and already have recommended it!

Where to start, 1st I was charged extra once I got to the hotel $30/day for parking and $10/day for "convenience fee" which supposed was for pool/laundry and my stay was for 6days so I dished out an extra $280 with taxes for a hotel that was already payed for. 2nd the lady at the front desk had the worst attitude. 3rd they wouldn't clean or brink toiletries because it was an extended stay hotel, first I have heard of this. 4th their dryer melted my wife's bra, I reported it the night it melted so that no one else would use and they didn't even tag it out off service the next morning. Horrible experience

Property was very good. Our issue was with check in and check out. We had booked the property with Expedia and had been billed for it after checking in we noticed the hotel also billed us for a larger amount which was corrected two days later . Upon leaving we owed 65.10 us dollars for parking and destination fees. When checking card again they billed us 203.00 US dollar. Very frustrating having to chase this down when people are not qualified to do their jobs.

They waited 4 hours to bring them and opened our door at 10:35 pm waking up the entire room! They did not even knock! The “Jack” employee unlocked the door with has let walked in 15 feet to place them in our room further!!

Tbh Candlewood is exceptional, however due to their negligence of not having safety mats in their bath tubs, I had a slip and fall accident that has left me in pain for my entire vacation and a hefty medical bill that continues. I am very disappointed that no one, not even the manager has sought to check in with me after the acc to find out how I am doing. The accident occurred l, they change my room and life goes on. It is an ongoing investigation so it will be very interesting to see how this turns out, because I have and still is in so much pain since that fall. I also noted that I fell and the housekeeper had a huge smirk/grin on her face when the accident was reported and the manager had called her to the room, even though I was obviously shaken. Like everyone had zero concern and that is my disappointment. Outside of my personal accident the facility is actually great.

It also they put hold on my card and 3 weeks later still haven’t taken it off hold. Now have to go through my card and fight charges. I will never stay at candle wood again and the people on the phone are very rude. And weee not on the same page as far as how much money was going back in my card. Every person that I have talked to has had a different amount. And 3 weeks later still have a pending charge.

Decent hotel for the price. It was clean, although, it did smell alittle moldy. I needed a skillet for making eggs for breakfast and the front desk employee found me one quickly. The kitchenette in the room had basic glasses, plates, silverware, but only 1 pot. The room was spacious. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was a decent size. The hotel did not have free breakfast, but had some items available for purchase. The one thing that I didnt like was the 20.00 parking per night. You parked in a garage and it seemed to me that you could park for free in the garage. You did not habe to get a ticket to enter and there wasnt anything stating that you had to pay. I would stay there again if I was in the area.
