Hotel near Orlando Airport??

[sudwel]

Our flight home from Orlando leaves on a Sunday at 9:00 am so I figured that to save some of the hassle of having to be at the airport by 7:00, we're returning the rental car by 5:00 the night before, and we're going to stay in a hotel near the airport and use the hotel's shuttle service to get to the airport. I've been researching, and I'm really leaning towards the Embassy Suites - it's about $129 for the room for the night - but I figure it will be nice to have two rooms - so we can put the kids down at a decent hour while DH and I get our bags fully packed for the flight home. It has really good reviews as well.

I was considering the motel at the Florida Mall - so we could do some extra shopping before we fly home, and it's $99 a night... but, they don't offer a shuttle, and we'd have to book transportation to the airport...

This is our first trip, so I'm open for any and all advice!!

Thanks!

Have you thought about staying at the Hyatt Regency located inside Orlando International Airport?

We just stayed at the Residence Inn by Marriott ($125 US with CAA). There are so many hotels to chose from though and tonnes of restaurants. Shopping - not so much!

Please do yourself a favor and use Priceline! Hyatt Regency can be had for about $45 US.
