Best Airport-area hotels for a late night arrival?

[ToddlerMom311]

Flights were ridiculously expensive on the day we booked our first day in our Disney resort, so we found a cheaper flight for the night before. Any recommendations for a hotel to stay at near the airport? We plan to take the magical express the next morning, so a hotel with a free airport transfer is a must. Also my husband really wants a free continental breakfast because we'll be paying an arm and a leg for food for the rest of the week while on disney property.

Not sure about breakfasts, but the 3-4* hotels all have shuttles and can be had on Priceline for a steal. We got the Sheraton for about $60. It was great and a short walk to Hooters. Hoping to be there again.

Because we scored a huge deal and great flights, we booked another trip. I tried doing PL to get an excellent rate, but I guess they have been much harder to get. I ended up going with an Express deal. I had hoped for a better place and better deal, but got Ramada Inn. It was only $60 so I can't complain. We will only be there for about 8 hours to sleep and shower. Hooters is right there to eat, have a beer, and relax a bit.

We are in the same boat
Our flight comes in at 10 PM and maybe ready to get a cab or hotel shuttle at 11PM

So our first day at WDW may not be a WDW park day.
We could relax in the AM - have breakfast
Check out at 11 AM - have a taxi bring us to our WDW Resort
then walk around, go to Disney Springs, play mini-golf, ect.
Start our WDW Parks early the next day.
OR
When we get to our WDW resort - drop off our bags and go to a WDW Park
which had the early morning hours - since the park would be emptier in the afternoon.


The Hampton Inn & Suites Orlando Airport @ Gateway Village Airport MCO shuttle runs at that late hour - I called and they said it runs 24 hours a day.
Once you get your baggage - you call them.
They say where to meet and they get there within 10 - 20 minutes per traffic.
Assume less traffic at 11 PM at night.

Also a great smoke free hotel !
AAA/CAA get 15% off rooms

Plus per their website:
