I stayed at the Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista – Disney Springs Area with my wife and kids, and it was an outstanding experience. The location is perfect — just a short walk to Disney Springs, with endless dining, shopping, and entertainment options right outside the door.
The staff was friendly, professional, and made sure we had everything we needed. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable — plenty of space for the whole family. The beds were cozy, and we loved the view from our room.
The pool area was a hit with the kids, the on-site restaurants were excellent, and the overall atmosphere made the trip feel like the perfect mix of family fun and relaxation. We’ll definitely be coming back here for our next Disney trip.

Hotel Review: Hilton Lake Buena Vista
I recently stayed at the Hilton Lake Buena Vista and had a mixed experience. The hotel has its charms, but there are definitely areas for improvement.
Rooms: The rooms felt outdated, reminiscent of the 1980s. While the TV was a standout feature, offering a good range of channels and a modern interface, the overall decor could use a refresh to match contemporary standards.
Dining: The breakfast buffet, while decent, seemed a bit overpriced. With options like the Waffle House nearby, it might be worth considering a price adjustment to make it more competitive.
Service: One of the highlights of my stay was the exceptional service from the server Kala. Her energy and enthusiasm were unmatched, making dining a delightful experience.
Overall Experience: The hotel has potential, but a renovation would significantly enhance the guest experience. Updating the rooms and adding more resort-like amenities could make it a top choice for visitors. In the meantime, the friendly staff, especially Kala, make the stay enjoyable despite the dated ambiance.

We chose to stay at the Hilton because of its location. We were only spending one night (after a cruise, but before flying out) and wanted somewhere close by to Disney Springs. The hotel is nice, but a little outdated. They have a marketplace with a Starbucks inside, so that was convenient. The staff was extremely friendly.
The walk over to Disney Springs is very short and it is very convenient. If we had driven to Disney Springs and parked in the parking garage, I think we would have walked longer.
Overall, we were happy with our stay.

I stayed here while attending an on-site convention. I was pretty surprised to see the dated room, with large curtains and checkerboard headboards, and carpet. The room appeared clean enough, just dark, heavy in colors, and very mid 90s. Now the premier location for Disney Springs walking and the park shuttle, those aspects were great. The main highlight is the pool area - a 10, it reminded me on the pools at Disney Swan, large, warm, quiet, ample seating to relax. The staff was nothing but helpful, the food served was fine. The main lobby and Starbucks area was updated, but the rooms, conference space, and halls just all need some TLC.

We had an excellent stay at the Hilton Lake Buena Vista Resort. While this hotel dates back to the early 80s, and the outside reflects that, the inside has had a fresh renovation and is up-to-date, warm, and beautiful all around. Rooms are updated, with hints of traditional colors and textures with a modern, luxurious lobby and common spaces. The king beds are traditional king size, and not the more common California king. The hotel is perfectly located right next to the Bridge walkway that drops you directly into downtown Disney. Although breakfast is not included, the breakfast buffet was exceptional. Service was excellent. We would highly recommend this resort and definitely return.
