Sheraton Safari

Can you please give me your reviews of this hotel?

I found a good deal on Expedia, to stay there in September.

Thanks for your help!

Without knowing your expectations, hard for me to reply. We stayed there 2 yrs ago and thought it was a great value. I would say the rooms (and hotel in general) is similar to the WDW Moderate hotels, but the Safari is about $40-60 less per night. GREAT location right outside Disney Village entrance. Tons of restaurants and shopping near by. The pool is nothing spectacular, but it was clean and not very busy.

We stayed there last July, and I thought it was a really nice place. Our kids loved it, there were animals in the lobby (a parrot and small alligators in a tank) and the pool has an excellent slide. I've read about a height restriction on the slide (48") but our littlest one is less and he was never given a problem by anyone, and he can't swim. (I would catch him at the bottom, he was wearing bubbles, etc.) Also, they do have high-speed internet access, though it was not cheap (I think $10 per day or something like that). I got it one day to catch up on my mail. There is a Chili's, Olive Garden, Chevy's and Jungle Jim's all within easy walking distance, and maybe more, I think I am forgetting a couple of restaurants. Very close to Downtown Disney, and they had a bus of their own to take you to Disney, but I wouldn't recommend it frankly, it didn't run often enough for us.

I stayed here in March and it was very nice. I can't think of one bad thing about the place. The staff was friendly, although there were a lot of Haitian and Caribbean accents around. I would stay here again.

The Sheraton Safari frequently comes up for a $35 3* bid on Priceline. You can find reviews in the Hotel Reviews section of biddingfortravel.com. If that's the type of hotel you're looking for, you might consider Priceline - other frequent 3*s for that price are the Hyatt Orlando and the Renaissance WorldGate.
