Whats the name of the hotel across from the tunnel in orlando?

Recommended Posts

You are either looking for the Continental Plaza Hotel, which is just by the tunnel, or Motel 6, which round the corner on American Way.

I've heard the Conintental Plaza is not the best; when I was there earlier this month we stayed in the Motel 6, which was clean and perfectly fine. Theres also a discount if you get a letter from Skyventure.

The one right there in the circle is the Riande. Last time I looked on the skyventure site that one wasn't linked anymore.

The one right accross is the Riande....Yeah, its kinda like a hotel.

I would stay at the Motel 6. Nice, new and within walking distance. Also very close to the IHOP;)

If you look for a bed and a shower, the Riande will do. I satayed there for a week but all the other campers moved out after day 1. Probably it has something to do with my military background (any bed is better than none);).

Yep it's not, but they'll still give you the skyventure discount if you call and tell them when you're booking. Katie and I stayed there last month but used a travel service and the bastards wouldn't give us the discount >:(. Next time we'll book directly through them for sure.

You'll save $1 or $2 at the Motel 6, which is much newer and very clean, but you'll have a slightly longer walk (~5 mins or less depending how long you need to wait at the cross walk). The Motel 6 also has a pool.

I was shown the "Airspeed shortcut" between the motel 6 and the tunnel last month... but I'd rather take the long way.

Red Horse is nice



And cheap. You have to walk right by the I Hop to get to the tunnel. Makes it easy for breakfast.

dont forget the Continental B-Fast that comes with the room if you are not looking for a huge b-fast :)
Just make sure you tell them you are with the tunnel...the rate is only $35 a night then :)

... plus often funny karaoke.



Oh, but you missed the CSC tunnel trip where two karaoke chicks got into a cat fight! That was the best! ;)

And if you stay at Best Western Movieland, I don't recommend body bowling down the hallways. The staff doesn't like that very much. :ph34r:

That was just enough food in the morning to get me going.

There was coffee in the room and that was nice. Plus the newspaper at the door every morning, and the view of the tunnel we had from our room. Priceless.

I've taken groups there a couple of times, although it has been a while. We stay at
Rodeway Inn International
6327 International Dr.
Phone (407) 996-4444

And were pleased enough that anyone from here pretty much stays there. It is a couple of blocks away.

We're going mid-march and only the Motel 6 would honor the advertised discounts during that period. Red Horse, etc. were going full price due to conventions.

Best to shop around every visit.

The M6 is the best deal I've had so far. The Riande was gross when we went 3 years ago.

Oh yeah...that's right!!! I forgot! My company was trying to have a national meeting in Orlando the first or second week of March and everything was booked due to the ACC (large cardiology convention) in town..we couldn't find anything to accomodate a small group of 100 ppl anywhere.:o So now we're back to cccccold NJ[:/]

Last May, I checked into the Riande and stayed about one hour. That was how long it took to book another hotel. It was gross. I lost one night's fee but I figured that I would save that much money on fleapowder and delousing treatments. Motel 6 and Best Western are both very close (no dodging traffic from BW) and are worth a few extra dollars. Just my humble opinion.
