Hyatt Regency Orlando
Hyatt Regency Orlando is a convention hotel with a resort pool, which is a much rarer combination than it sounds.
30-Second Verdict
Book the Hyatt Regency if your event is in the Convention Center's West Building, or if you want a central International Drive base with a proper pool. Skip it if your week is Disney-only, because this is the wrong side of the city for that.

Location and park fit
The hotel connects directly to the Orange County Convention Center's West Building and sits on central International Drive. Universal, Epic Universe and SeaWorld are all a short drive.
Walt Disney World is a longer trip, which is the main argument against this hotel for a Disney-weighted week.
Rooms and family fit
Standard rooms sleep four with suites for five. The room stock is large and consistent, as you would expect from a hotel built for conventions.
Transport and mobility
The I-Ride Trolley runs along International Drive, which covers restaurants and attractions. For the theme parks you will drive or ride.
Park benefits
None. This is an independent hotel with no park affiliation, and you will pay theme park parking on each park day.
Pool and rest-day fit
Two pools and a water slide on a raised deck, plus a full spa. It is genuinely more resort than conference hotel, which is why families end up here as well as delegates.
Cost beyond the room
Resort fees and self-parking charges at this property change and are not published here, because an out-of-date figure is worse than none. Ask the hotel for the all-in nightly total before comparing it with another rate.
Rates here track the events calendar rather than the school one, so the same week can be cheap one year and expensive the next.
You get a convention connection and a resort pool in one hotel, and you accept a busy, large property on a commercial strip that is a long way from Disney.
Alternatives worth comparing
Book this hotel
Rates in Orlando move constantly and depend on your dates, so check the current price rather than working from any figure on a website. Confirm resort fees, parking charges and any theme park benefit directly with the hotel or the park before you book.

Common questions
Is Hyatt Regency Orlando connected to the Convention Center?
Yes, to the West Building. Check which building your event is in before booking, because the North and South Building is a walk across International Drive.
Does Hyatt Regency Orlando have a good pool?
It has two pools and a water slide on a raised deck, which is unusually good for a convention hotel and is the reason it appears on leisure shortlists.
Is Hyatt Regency Orlando good for Disney?
It is workable and it is not efficient. Disney is a longer drive from here than from Lake Buena Vista or Bonnet Creek, and you will pay theme park parking each day.
