Hi guys,

I've searched and search and searched travel deals and comparing prices here and there for hotels and airfare.

I'm travelling to Orlando, FL 12/1-12/6. It all really comes down to the star rating of the hotel. This is what I think i'm going to settle with.

Royale Parc Suites - 6 days 5 nights with Airfare = $456.69
This is the price from bookit.com
It's weird because when I just book it without the airfare its = $465

This is for 2 adults.

The thing about this hotel is that it provides free shuttle service to ALL theme parks, free breakfast buffets every night that you stay, and the rooms look huge. Also free poolside drinks late at night such as beer wine

What do you guys think?

I don't like relying on shuttle buses.

Either stay on property or stay in Kissimee and rent a car.

This is for 2 adults.However, the price with airfare is per person, right (i.e. $912 total cost for two)? So if you can find some $200 (or so) flights, it's cheaper to book the hotel and air separate.

As DSJ said, relying on shuttles can be problematic - they may only have a run or two a day to each park, you may waste a lot of time on them as they make multiple pickups, last run might be earlier than you would like, etc. However, you could always find out more info from the hotel as to their schedule, etc. and you have the option of renting a vehicle for a couple of days if you want a little freedom.

It looks like the hotel is next to the Old Town complex. I live in Orlando and although I have never gone there, it is a popular spot with tourist and some locals from that area, so there should be enough stuff to just walk to at night when you aren't at the park.

BTW, we are probably coming to NYC the first week in December, want us to water the plants or feed the cats?
