Residence Inn Orlando Lake Mary

This isn’t called residence in for nothing! Very nice and clean rooms with a kitchen and living area, dressing area. 2 closets and 2 TV’s nice king size bedroom. Dog walk area with waste bags provided. Has a Heated pool, hot tub, basketball court too! Full Laundry facility ad a small orderly gym. Mostly important to me besides cleanliness is that they allow pets, there is a $ 100 per night fee though, but hopefully that keeps out the irresponsible pet owners. The front desk clerk (Troy) on the night we were stayed greeted us after our walk with «Zekes» brand treats for our furbaby, won us over big time! Thank you for making our stay so comfortable.

We travel often but I am disabled. and this property is great!
Marriott always have ADA rooms, but these have better design. A full size taller real ADA toilet, an easy chair with solid arms that reclines (to about 45 degrees), a hand held spray attachment in the shower and doors large enough to move through. we’re all standard little efficiency apartment room. There is a kitchenette and a in property MINI convenience store. But, we were there right after Christmas and the guests had cleaned them out. so we ordered room service from the Marriott next door and they delivered to our door. We have long been fans of the Residence Inn brand of Marriott. but the management of this one deserves five gold stars. … And many of our neighbors were very well behaved family pets… Awesome!

Bar none this is the nicest, cleanest and most friendly Residence Inn I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying at for work. Wow! What a great hotel and staff. Highly recommend.

New, clean facility. Great staff, good rates and lots to do in the area. Suite were really nice, staff was friendly and helpful couldn’t have asked for a better quick stay on the way to Daytona

Very cool hotel — loved the location as it is north of Orlando and therefor not any where near the tourist hot-​spots. Great staff, very nice pool — excellent outdoor space in general. The breakfast and early evening dinner snacks are great though i find some of the breakfast staff a bit noisy and out right rude.
I would stay there again if in Orlando — I am 100% sure. Love the place

The residential suite is the better of the ones I have been to. It is up to date and clean with great staff. The front desk was always enthusiastic to talk to me.
The surrounding area is perfect because there are restaurants nearby and local grocery stores. Many of the businesses are within walking distance (5 – 10 minute walk). It’s a great hotel for business travelers and families.
Next door is a another Marriott that isn’t attached, but they do have their restaurant to bring over room service. Like many of the other residential marriotts, there is a free continental breakfast and social hours for weekdays.
The pool area is small but since the hotel isn’t that large to begin with, it seems to work out well.
Return rating: 100%

My favorite pet-​friendly hotel!

Wonderful facility, always exceptionally clean! Very spaciously designed for the Business/​Professional or Family!

My husband and I stayed at this Residence Inn for two and a half months and I cannot say enough good things about it. The staff was amazing! Everyone was so helpful, professional and all was done with a smile. The hot breakfast was always wonderful (thank you Harold and staff!), and the nightly complimentary happy hour — Monday through Thursday — was an added treat. Our two dogs stayed with us and they were treated almost as well as we were. This Residence Inn is in a great location… lots of good restaurants, a grocery store, the Seminole Wekiva Trail, etc., all within walking distance. I would highly recommend this Residence Inn to anyone, if it’s only for one night or for an extended stay. You will love it!

This is a beautiful Residence Inn. It seems that it is very new; all the furnishings are brand new, as is the carpeting and beds. There is both wired and wireless Internet. If you want wired, you have to ask for a cord at the front desk. The wireless is very speedy.
The front desk staff was very friendly and nice. They where extremely helpful when I requested a certain room; I appreciate that.
The grounds around the hotel are very lush, green and well kept. It’s beautiful. They also have several reserved parking spaces for electric cars. I love that this hotel has that — it’s such a great, environmental feature.
The room itself is fantastic. I had a suite with a king bed, living area, full kitchen and dining area, and a nice bathroom (big shower, but no bathtub — if you need a bathtub, be sure and request one — this is the first time I have ever been in a Residence Inn without a tub). I don’t mind no tub, I prefer the roomy shower — it also had glass doors, a nice change from the typical shower curtain. The bathroom floor has beautiful tile and the sink is outiside of the toilet/​shower area.
The room was so clean when I came in. The bed is big and over stuffed and very comfortable. I don’t want to leave!!!
There is a wonderful full breakfast buffet every morning. I love it that they use real plates and utensils (very eco-​friendly not to use styrofoam & plastic). And, a couple nights during the week they have a social hour downstairs with snacks and stuff — that’s nice.
The location of this hotel is very good. It’s a 5 — 10 minute drive to a big shopping area (with a mall, Super-​Target, Michaels, and a bunch of other specialty stores). And, there are restaurants all over. It’s 1 minute to the Interstate to take you to Orlando, and about a 30 minute drive to Mt. Dora. There is also a Walgreens, Publix and and several other shops/​restaurants within walking distance. Orlando is about 30 or so minutes away; it is not that close to Orlando if you plan on going to Disney every day. But, it’s not far either, and the rates are better here than in Orlando near Disney.
All in all — a great place to say. As with most Marriotts, I have nothing at all bad to say. Oh, and the breakfast is good — full buffet breakfast.

I was impressed by this one! I’ve stayed at various Residence Inns, and this ranks as the best one. When compared to other hotels I’ve stayed at in the past, even if you throw in the ones that are triple the price per night, this is still one of the top-​ranked. What a great combination of atmosphere, amenities, service, etc. Here are my observations in detail:
1. Location — the Residence Inn is in Lake Mary, closer to Heathrow. What a nice break from the tourist trap of Orlando. The hotel is convenient enough to the highways, shops, restaurants (great ones right across the street), but tucked away enough that you won’t get just any passer-​by. One caveat — watch the speed limits when you leave the hotel and head to International Parkway. It goes from 35 to 25 in a flash.
2. Hotel Itself —
— Atmosphere & amenities: modern, clean, moderately spacious yet very organized. Plenty of seating area inside and out, appealing fixtures, etc. Although I didn’t have time to enjoy the pool or the gym, I checked both out, and it’s got everything you need.
— Rooms: Unlike some of the Residence Inns I’ve seen, this one is more like a hotel than the villa-​style. I was uncertain at first because I questioned whether the rooms would be as adequate as the villa-​style set-​up, but it turns out that they made it work very well. My studio had a big bed, big bathroom, seating area, fully-​equipped kitchen, etc. I’m no expert, but I’d say granite countertops in the bath and ktichen, and stainless steel appliances. Nice, big flatscreen tv. Free wi-​fi.
— Great breakfast and evening «social hour». Scrambled eggs, sausages, pancakes, yogurt, fruit, etc. I didn’t even have to go out for dinner because the social hour food was filling enough — meatball sliders one night and turkey/​cheese sandwiches another night, plus beer and wine. Awesome!
— Staff: very friendly and professional — no complaints here! Thank you for making my stay very enjoyable and pleasant.
I would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Traveling on business to Orlando, this is a great place to stay. Lake Mary is one of the nicer areas close to downtown Orlando. It’s literally a 15 minute drive to downtown along I-​4.
Residence Inn by Marriott is one of the best kept secrets for business travelers. Excellent accommodations, friendly staff, free full breakfast buffet and dinner nightly.
The rooms are awesome. Nice big comfy kind sized bed, couch. flat panel widescreen HDTV, microwave oven, full sized kitchen with big refrigerator, sink, dishes… everything you need for a short or long stay in Orlando.
I cannot say enough positive things about this place. Truly home away from home.
