Orlando Hotels - OnlineTravelComparison
Orlando is synonymous with Walt Disney World. But this family-friendly destination isn´t just about Mickey Mouse. Gorgeous resorts, world-class golf courses, culture, dining and shopping are just a few of the reasons to visit this central Florida city.

A trip to Walt Disney World is undoubtedly what brings most visitors to Orlando. Over time, the Disney grounds have expanded from the single Magic Kingdom Park to include Epcot Center, Animal Kingdom and Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. Disney hotels range from classy camping at Fort Wilderness to tropical luxury at the Polynesian. Universal Orlando and SeaWorld have joined Disney in making Orlando a destination for family fun and adventure.

More serious cultural offerings abound in Orlando as well. The Orlando Shakespeare Theatre is a well respected production company, the Orlando Science Center offers hand-on learning opportunities and the Morse Museum of American Art houses one of the largest collections of Tiffany glass and jewelry.

Four large shopping malls entice Orlando visitors. The Florida Mall is one of the largest single-story malls in the country and the Festival Bay Mall features an indoor skate park. Orlando cuisine runs the gamut from upscale contemporary to casual and family friendly. And of course, for the little ones, dining with the Disney characters is a must.
