Best Western - Maingate East or Movieland?

[bigmama67]

I would be grateful for any input from anyone who has stayed at either of these hotels. We are on a MAJOR budget (DH is not working) and I could get a gift card to cover part of the cost of a night at a Best Western. I don't even care if there's a breakfast; we would like (free) Internet and a decent pool.

This is a one-night add-on to a week in my friend's timeshare. We will probably go to Epcot on that last day, but we'll have a car so distance is not that important.

If you have any info on either of these, please let me know. Thanks!

Ive not stayed at either one. But the Movieland is what I would choose. Its not as close to Disney, but its on I-Drive in the thick of things, and very close to Universal Studios as well. Hope that helps and let me know if you have any other questions. Enjoy your stay.

If you could get this one....I'd say go for it! Awesome hotel with 3 heated pools. Kids eat free!!!! They have breakfast. A good shuttle service and just 1.8 miles from Disney.

Other things are:

fridge
25' TV's
arcade
free mini golf
free high speed internet
coffee make with free condiments
welcome package
Lots of food establishments within walking distance


This is a Disney good neighbor hotel. I can get rates of $41 Canadian! Was planning on staying there this yeaR (cHRISTMAS) BUT GOT 40% ROOM rates for Disney. I am going back to this Best Western next October!

Great, thanks! I booked it at $62 plus tax so after the gift card it will cost us less than $40! Yay!

I hope you are not disappointed. I very much enjoyed this place. There is also a Walgreens in the parking lot good for snacks and girft, etc....

There is a pizza hut onsite. Wings are delicious with blue cheese dipping sauce and there is a small grocery store onsite and another restaurant called Hurricane Sam's. Canbana bars at end of pool with snacks and drinks!

I stayed there last October for 15 nights. Going back next year. Glad I could help!
