Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando
Loud and proud
The VIP treatment isn’t only for superstars at this music-themed hotel. Guests can revel in iconic music memorabilia, plunge into a gigantic swimming pool with an underwater sound system, and score exclusive theme park benefits.
A short walk to Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure, and Universal CityWalk, music fans will be in their element at this tribute to all things rockstar. Riffs of rock fill the air, memorabilia as cool as Paul McCartney’s guitar (and as bizarre as Elvis’s pyjamas) are on display, and guests can even borrow a Fender guitar or Crosley turntable to rock out in their room. The pool is colossal, and the fun is boosted by a slide, a kids’ water play area, and a sound system pumping tunes above and below the surface. Guest rooms are decked out in superstar-inspired art, and the two-bedroom Future Rock Star Suite deserves a special mention for the fun addition of a stage for mini rockstars to perform on.
Why we love Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando
-
You get free Universal Express Unlimited ride access to get you on participating rides and attractions faster by skipping the regular queue for the length of your stay when you have a valid ticket.
-
The hotel's centrepiece is an enormous pool complete with slide, interactive fountains, and an underwater sound system. Expect poolside games, DJ days, and live music on some evenings, too.
-
With valid theme park admission, you can access The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Universal Volcano Bay an hour earlier than other guests.
-
The hotel and parks are connected by walking paths or you can hop on a free water taxi or shuttle bus.
Rooms
There are 650 guestrooms, made cool by pops of fuchsia and cinematic spotlights but cosy with gingham curtains and plenty of plush soft furnishings. Rock Royalty Club Rooms come highly recommended for the extra perks, such as a complimentary breakfast and drinks. For maximum rockstar styling (complete with an interactive stage and recording studio lights), you can’t beat a Future Rockstar Suite.
Facilities
There’s a good selection of restaurants, whether you fancy a relaxing evening in a classic American steakhouse or something more casual in The Kitchen, where comfort food is the order of the day. For the iconic Hard Rock Café, you’ll need to make your way to Universal CityWalk, just a ten-minute stroll from the hotel.

For jogging outside, there’s an option of a 1.5-mile loop or 3.8-mile loop. Yogis can tune into Rock Om, in-room yoga classes.
