Marriott Courtyard Lake Buena Vista

Has anyone stayed at Marriott Courtyard on Palm Parkway? This is not the one in Marriott Village, but right outside the gate. I would like to hear from anyone that has because we have a complimentary stay booked there. We have stayed on Palm Parkway at Embassy Suites and Hampton Inn so I know I like that area.

Yes, we stayed there a year ago and really liked it. It is a smaller hotel but is the cleanest place I have ever stayed. We had a two room jr. suite and it was perfect for out needs as it included a microwave and small fridge. I would stay there again if in the area, they have two pools, a small business center and also serve breakfast ($) but you do have a coffee maker in the room. We stayed 8 nights and did not find it expensive-look for specials. Good luck and have fun.

Yes we stayed there a year ago and would do so again. It is the cleanest place we have ever stayed, small but very nice. The staff is ver helpful and friendly. We had a 2 room jr suite with plenty of room for our needs. They do serve breakfast($) but we had a microwave, coffeemaker and small fridge in our unit. It is not far from Downtown Disney and next to crossroads shopping.

I'll echo these statements. The Courtyard on the Palm Pkwy is a great hotel. The location is great for quick access to Disney, and you are across the street from some good restaurants too. This one is a little more "tucked away" than the Marriott Village Courtyard (not that the Village is noisy or anything at all) because it is off the main drag of 535. You also can take the Palm Parkway over to Sand Lake Road and access "Restaurant Row" and easily get to International Drive and Universal Studios.

Thanks, katz and mattm! We just needed a room for the night before our package starts onsite. I went ahead and booked a room here. I had some Marriott points to use, and this hotel was available. We do like the convenience of Palm Parkway. I appreciate your help!
