Hi Lisa and Ade x we love Rosen Inn International for its location too. Love the ethos, no hidden fees, free wi-if, free car parking, no resort fees. Thank you for your great videos - you are such a lovely couple 💕
Your review was utterly perfect in discussing this hotel! Off and on, my family stayed at this LBV Rosen for more than 60 days because of delays with a home purchase. I can't say enough about the phenomenal staff! The people were top-notch. My young son still speaks about the staff and how safe and happy he felt. He said he felt as if he was at "home." As you can imagine, for the length of time we stayed, we saw every part of the hotel. So clean and very comfortable. The owner of the hotel should be pretty proud of this accomplishment. It's a rare gem.
We’re just back from a 10 day stay here and agree with all you say. The location is brilliant. We used Uber/Lyft this time which cost anything between 12-20 dollars to get to the Disney parks. We didn’t eat here but used the shop which was handy for essentials. This is our second stay here and would go back for sure.
I'll be here this weekend. Looking forward to it after your very honest and wonderful review. Glad to know there are restaurants within walking distance.
Me & Laura stayed here & we absolutely loved it! Uber & Lyft is cheap to the parks, staff are lovely, plus for what you’re paying it’s pretty decent! Everything is close, restaurants and shops a 30 second walk & Disney Springs round the corner! Just an FYI, we stayed pool side & when you have the AC on (which most of us brits do) you don’t hear the I4 AT ALL! We’re going again next year and we’re very excited!
Great vlog. Thank you so much for this tour and honest review. It makes such a difference to do a review after your stay instead of only at the beginning. Our last years stay at WDW French Quarter was very disappointing. due to having no housekeeping during our 7 day stay and the grounds and restaurant had not returned to pre-covid standards.
Thanks xx I think reviewing something can only be done after a stay. Otherwise it could look lovely but actually not be that great after all. That’s such a shame about your port Orleans stay. Hopefully standards would be much better now x
Loved looking around this resort with you really surprised how nice it was especially as we normally stay at a Disney property. Thank you for sharing this
I did a solo trip just recently and stayed at the Holiday Inn Resort in Lake Buena Vista, the staff there were so naturally friendly, even upgraded my room to an “indoor corridor “ room! There was an Applebees restaurant attached and I’m sure it looked like the one you and your family visited, one with your Mum and sister. Enjoying your vlogs❣
Thanks for your review, honestly I stayed at All star music September last year and this looks similar with the benefit of a proper fridge and microwave. I love the location too (stayed at Home2Suites may last year) close to Disney, good restaurants and target. I will use the money saved for an extra trip 😊
Stayed here a couple of times when it was called The Clarion . Always been very clean and friendly . Very safe with great security . We have fab memories of making Mickey waffles in the morning with their waffle machine . Also walked to Ihop for breakfast one day , and walked to Olive Garden for dinner . Dinner at the hotel was nice and had a good selection . Plenty of seating and again clean . The option of using the laundrette was great We did use the hotel bus - bit of a scram and have to prebook tickets The normal buses were easier and run to Disney and Seaworld , bus stop is opposite hotel. I believe bus company at the time was called Lynx , timetable was regular and the bus drivers were lovely with navigating us. We have also stayed in what used to be called B palace hotel which is now a Hilton hotel . Next to the Wyndham . It is in Lake Buena Vista and is less than 6 minute walk to Disney springs via footpath bridge . Again very safe , used it at all times day and night . There were also lots of park buses . Also a character breakfast twice a week with Pluto , Mickie and Minnie . My daughter was excited to see Pluto and was sad when she couldn’t find him . The Disney cast member s were lovely and asked Pluto to come back and they had some time together. We stayed in the apartments side of the Hilton and had 4 king beds , a living room , dining room and Balconies . The hotel is directly opposite Saratoga springs and worked out £6K cheaper than the animal kingdom lodge for the same time period (5 people). This hotel had a small Disney store etc. I think Lake Buena vista offers great value for money and is so close and often depending on what families are looking for can work out better than staying onsite for restaurant choice , proximity to parks and ease of going offsite to other locations .
A similar hotel in California if you need one in Anaheim area is Knotts Berry Farm hotel . Can walk in minutes to Knotts Berry Farm theme park and water park and shops , Starbucks etc . Also great buses direct to Disney from the hotel. We stayed in Knotts for convenience but ended up falling in love with the hotel, restaurant and parks. Absolutely on our list for when we go back.
Thank you so much for this video! My girlfriend and I are heading to Orlando next October and staying here - so relieved that the majority of online reviews are far from the reality you have shared! 😁🙏
Going to this hotel beginning of June for 21 nights and can't wait. Your video really helped cement my decision to go to this hotel and requested non-pet room as you suggested so thanks for that!! Is there a target or Wal-Mart nearby? I can't wait. I have been watching your June vlogs last year and on your suggestion am getting the cool towel to put round my neck too 😁
21 nights!! Amazing! You’ll have such a great time ❤️ Walmart isn’t too far at all. Just off the 192 about 10mins away. And there’s a Super Target further down the 192 on Rolling Oaks. It’s a lovely one and there’s good dining options around there too. Hope that helps x
Hey guys, love your vlogs been a long time viewer but only just subscribed. We are going to Orlando for the very first time and are thinking about Rosen Lake Buena vista. Would you recommend it over other similar priced hotels? Thanks
Hi!! Thanks so much for subbing. We were happy there and wouldn't hesitate to book again. It's not a 5* luxury resort but for the money, location is amazing, facilities great, friendly staff and beds were so comfy. Hope that helps 🙂
Thanks for the advice we always stay in old town Kissimmee witch we like very easy to park’s from there but would be nice to try something different for a change
Yes there is a lynx busstop..(not on the high way side) it stops at disney springs. (The other way is to seaworld area.) You can buy buspasses for a week. Back in 2019 their cost 17 euro. You can go in en out from the bus. You can buy tickets in the bus too. (More expensive if you stay for a longer time) There you can walk to the nearest disneyhotel and take a bus to a park/waterpark. You can walk to disney springs to and also to the outlet mall. I walk a lot... in my country it's normal to walk a lot.

Thank you for your review. Will be staying there in a month and it sounds perfect for us. You gave lots of helpful information.

So glad I found this. I watch your videos and hadn’t seen this one. I’m staying here at the end of february i’m really looking forward to it
Oh amazing! I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did x
That’s for posting the vlog, been feeling stressed about my wdw trip in October 😅
Glad it was helpful.
Hope the trip planning is going well x

Love this hotel and it’s location. The shuttle bus is quite handy too if you don’t or aren’t driving
We were really impressed!
I may be tempted on my next trip. Great video yet again. Thanks 😊
Were you surprised? x
Another great video you two always very informative look forward to the next one ❤️
Thanks so much!

Thank for showing this 👍🏾 great to see around x
How did it compare to the one you stayed at on Idrive?xx
Thank you for this, I've often looked at this hotel due to the low rates. Might book it for a few days next time we go.
It’s such a good price. We booked through Hotels.com, went through quidco too and they do a ‘stay 10 nights in a year and get a night free’.
Loving the vlogs, even our young son is enjoying them he’s 11 ❤
Thanks so much.
How lovely that you watch together ❤️
Thank you so much for this video! My girlfriend and I are heading to Orlando next October and staying here - so relieved that the majority of online reviews are far from the reality you have shared! 😁🙏
Glad it was helpful! Have you read some bad reviews then?
When we were looking at staying the reviews were good. I hope this put your mind at ease x

Hope that helps x
@@AdeandLisa thanks so much for that 😁
Did u use the transportation for the parks
Stayed in a i 4 side once in the room no noise was heard
That's good to know. Thank you : )
Thanks for the video! Do you happen to know if there is a resort fee at all? Thank you!😊
Arh just saw someone else’s comment saying there isnt 😊
That’s right and no parking charges either 😊
Just odd that the microwave and fridge and coffee machine are located in the bathroom. Found that rather strange.
Hey guys, love your vlogs been a long time viewer but only just subscribed.
We are going to Orlando for the very first time and are thinking about Rosen Lake Buena vista.
Would you recommend it over other similar priced hotels?
Thanks
Hi!! Thanks so much for subbing.
We were happy there and wouldn't hesitate to book again.
It's not a 5* luxury resort but for the money, location is amazing, facilities great, friendly staff and beds were so comfy. Hope that helps 🙂
Hi, do you have to have a car to go to Disney World and Universal Studios? Or is there a shuttle or other wats to get there?
We always hire a car so I’m nit entirely sure. I know Ubers are really popular though.
Hi great video can anyone tell me if the hotel has buses to the parks or is there bus stops very close?
There are free shuttles to Disney but not frequent. If you Google you can find them online. I don’t know about general buses though x
Thanks for the advice we always stay in old town Kissimmee witch we like very easy to park’s from there but would be nice to try something different for a change

Cheerio 🎉😂
Hi Guys - Who do you book your car hire through? 👍
Hi. Andy from Florida Discount Car Hire 😊
@@AdeandLisa Thanks Guys - we’ll take a look 👍
Is the area safe for walking about with a toddler in a pushchair
Yes, their are good pathways on both sides of the road. If you see the end of the video where we drive out you can see them xx
I stayed in an hotel in Kissimmee last June and I found their manners a little rude.
So I’ve booked this hotel for next year, looks a lot better!
We've had a great experience for both of our trips. We hope you will too.
