There are so many hotel choices for your Disney World vacation that it can be hard to choose which one is perfect for your family.
We just had a special tour of the Conrad Orlando, so we can give you all the details and help you decide if this is the resort for you.
The Conrad Orlando is a Disney World Good Neighbor Hotel, which means you get Disney World perks without staying at a Disney resort. There is complimentary transportation to the theme parks, the chance to purchase advanced tickets, and even a grab-and-go breakfast to take with you while you head on your bus to the theme parks.
There’s so much to do at the resort, too! With pools, two golf courses, and arrival and departure lounges, you’ll love taking a break from the parks and spending time at the resort. There’s even a STEM-based kids club! They talk about the Everglades, use microscopes, and even have two baby alligators.
For the pools, there are poolside cabanas and a splash pad area for everyone to enjoy. We loved seeing the spa and wellness rooms and learning how they use sustainability initiatives and even sell a local skincare line.
We headed to Apero, the bar on the property, which is debuting five new cocktails. One of those cocktails is a charity drink that changes monthly. They offered a Mental Health Awareness Month drink made with butterfly peas because butterflies symbolize Mental Health Awareness.
Another drink we tried is the Apero, named after the bar, a take on a Mojito. It was mint forward and reminded us of a Mojito and a margarita merged together. We loved it! There are also alcohol-free options.
Sophia’s Trattoria, the restaurant on the property, welcomed us to try two different dishes, including the Arancini and bay scallop crudo.
The Conrad Orlando is a Hilton-managed property, so you can book directly through the Hilton website and use and earn points. For Hilton Honors, there’s even a chance to save up to 17% off the Best Available Rate by booking in advance.

Disclosure: In nearly all circumstances, Disney Food Blog writers and photographers pay full price for their own travel, hotel, food, beverage, and event tickets. We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Hilton to attend their media preview of The Conrad Orlando. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy.
