• The atmosphere was incredible. Great restaurants. Clean and beautiful.
• There is nothing not to like about this hotel!

“The hotel was gorgeous. The staff was nice and helpful. The rooms and bathrooms throughout the hotel were very clean and well maintained. Once you check in you really don't want to leave the hotel. They have lots of thing to do in the hotel; arcades, adult pool, family pool with slides and waterfalls, mini golf, nice bars and restaurants.”

• The environment and decoration, are very nice.
• The cleanliness was not acceptable for such kind of hotel.

“Hotel location, environment, decoration and amenities are very nice. The cleanliness was not acceptable in our rooms. The parking very expensive and its not include in the rate the same thing with the resort fee.”

• Was not aware of the $17/day resort fee and the $12/day cost for self parking.

“The Hotel was beautiful, very clean, and relaxing. Met and exceeded expectations. The only down side is the meals are very expensive at the hotel (but there is lots of other dining in $17/day resort fee and $12/day self parking charge or $20/day valet charge. Adds up quickly when you are not expecting it. Other than that we loved this hotel and would definitely stay again!”

• Beautiful hotel, very relaxing.
• Added on a $ 15.00 resort fee (not a tax) did not tell about at check in.

“I would highly recommend this hotel, however, beware that valet parking is $ 35.00 and they add in a resort fee that you will not know about until you check out.”

• Overall cleanliness and size of rooms.
• Added charges (resort fees).

“Liked the comfort, size and cleanliness of rooms. Layout of hotel to park and get to room was confusing. Saw other travelers confused on parking and access to rooms and facilities.”

• Beautiful inside the hotel. Lots of shops. Very nice.
• The bed could have been nicer. It looked old and worn out.

“Lots of amenities. Beautiful resort. They have everything you could possibly need at the hotel. I think the cost for parking was too much. It's $13.00 each time you leave.”

• It was awesome! The spa, dolphin and alligator feedings were great!
• It was huge. It is over 2.5 miles in circumference, took a long time to get places.

“It was truly amazing! I wish I had more time just to spend at the hotel! There was not much there that we could not get. Other than the lack of Mickey mouse, there was no need to leave! The only complaint was that the restaurants were pricey. I do not mind spending money on great food but most budgets do not allow for 5 star dining every night.”

• The atmosphere is incredible with the tropical theme.

“This is always my first choice in hotels in the Orlando area and I have stayed at all for the resorts. And it is very Priceline friendly.”

• There was a lot of noise because the hotel rented the facilities for a private party, with a live band.

“The facilities are awesome, so the hotel. The only problem is that they were having different private parties with live bands, and it was impossible to stay in the room because of the noise.”

• The atrium.
• Unfriendly staff.

“The staff was very unfriendly and unhelpful. People went into the pool without the staff officially opening the area. Room keys were deactivated everyday and we had to make a trip to front desk. They should not charge so much for parking and resort fees ($30 a day). TV volume and sound did not work properly, wallpaper in room & bathroom was peeling off. Food was overpriced and was awful, stale, and old tasting. We just did not enjoy the hotel, staff, or anything about our stay and will not recommend Gaylord Palms to anyone.”

• Fancy, friendly and comfort hotel.

• It's beautiful. The kids like walking around the atrium. Free mini golf, nice pool.
• I don't agree with self parking fees and resort fees.

“This hotel has a beautiful atrium with gorgeous plants, fish, alligator pond, and everglades area. The children love just walking around. The pool is great, there is a variety of restaurants which are all good. The rooms are nicely decorated and they are clean. We have stayed there many times and will continue to return.”

• Room was great, flowers were absolutely beautiful. Fun in total body fitness. Guy there was very nice to my children.
• Not much. It was really nice. Just surprised at the end of 2 nights to have $60 bill. Didn't know we had to pay for self parking.

“Excellent rooms! The spring flower collection of daffodils, tulips & hyacinths were abundant & absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our workout in fitness center with the total body work out! Just a little sore the next day but the guy leading class was very good & even good to my two young daughters. Shops are nice too!”

Cleanliness:[5] • Staff:[6] • Location:[9]

• Nice facility.
• Security issues.

“Gaylord Palms can certainly rely on fine print, but hotels should avoid that, because relying on fine print almost always results in poor customer service. The overnight parking fee was over $12.00 per night and the resort fee was over $16.00 per night. With regard to security, one of my wife's necklaces was missing from the bathroom counter. My wife went to the front desk to file a report, but no one from security was available to take the complaint, so we eventually left because it wasn't an expensive necklace (fortunately) and we didn't want to waste our time. Still, any hotel where anything disappears, is cause for significant concern. Finally, and it's a minor issue, but the toilet paper dispenser in the bathroom was loose and falling out of the wall when we arrived. It was the recessed type (where the drywall has to be cut out to install it) and it could be pushed back into the hole in the drywall, which is apparently how the cleaning staff was handling the problem.”

• The resort was extremely clean and all the associates we met were extremely pleasant.

“With a great location, plenty of parking and a wide array of things to do and see without leaving the hotel it was a very pleasant stay. Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable, we would recommend the Gaylord Palms to everyone!”
