Recent Ritz Carlton Review: "There are so many hotels to choose from in Orlando, but most of them don't fit what we want when we visit. We want a more grown up experience as we are visiting family. The attractions and being kid friendly are not important to us.
We have stayed at both the JW Marriot & this year the Ritz Carlton. These hotels are perfect in comfort, service and location. The prices were a bit up from last year but still in our range.
I would highly recommend both of these hotels even if you are traveling with children (they had lots of planned activities for families)
There were two issues that came up that were annoying. First at the Ritz it seems as though there is only Valet parking. We asked for the self park area and were directed to a lot that is very removed from the entrance and it was difficult to figure out how to get to the entrance. After our second day we were given a parking summons. So I don't know what the deal is here. Some staff members are aware of the self park areas and others will issue you a ticket for parking there.
The second area of concern was the pool. The first day we arrived and the girl behind the pool desk told us to take any chair with a white towel that didn't have someone's stuff on it. We settled in and then a pool boy came up and told us that they were reserved for someone else. We had to stand and wait for about 20 minutes before we were given chairs. They kept saying things were reserved but there was no reservation desk or list for us to sign for the next day. I think the pool guys run it like a black market operation, the more you pay the better spot you get. One guy even said we could snag an umbrella for $100.00!!! All of the chairs are always reserved because they decide on the spot who gets them. We also noticed that chairs in the best spot would sit empty for hours - I guess because people came early, paid the guys off and then went shopping. It didn't seem fair to hold the best spots when you're not even there.
Other than that w"

| I am not a big fan of Orlando and so I need to separate my opinion of Orlando from my experience at the Ritz. The hotel is location is not great but aside from that my experience was typical of the Ritz Carlton. Extraordinary facilities and service. |

| When you think of what service is meant to be, then this is it. No hotel is perfect. What matters is how they address things when mistakes happen. They do an exceptional job, top to bottom. |

| I decided to use my reward coupon at this hotel.(it was an emergency) The a/c stopped working around 1 AM, there was hair on my bed, and the satellite TV was going out all the time...If this is the Ritz Carlton experience, I rather stay at a Comfort Inn! Not Worth the Price. |

| This was my first time ever staying at a Ritz Carlton and just like I thought it would, they exceeded my expectations. When I was at the check-in desk, they gave us bottled water and hot chocolate for my younger brother. They also had the kids check-in just for him. He loved it-it made him feel really important. I ate at the Vineyard Grill and it was delicious. Just a tip though, the sides and possibly the steaks are big enough that two people can share them. The attention to detail in this hotel is superb and it it was very clean and elegant. This is a Ritz Carlton, so you are supposed to try and dress the part which is not me all the time, but it was nice to feel "rich" for a day. Anybody looking for a romantic getaway I would definately reccommend this hotel. |
