The location first and foremost is first class. This is the second time we have stayed at Dockside and we have never had to wait for longer than 3 minutes for a shuttle, which take around 7 minutes to get to Citywalk/the Parks. Location is also great for a couple of convenience stores (walgreens & 7/11) just outside the hotel grounds. There is also a KFC in the area but the hotel itself does quality southern fried chicken. Both Pool areas are really nice, rooms are great, really can’t say enough good things about this hotel, other than we have stayed here, we have stayed at Cabana Bay and we have stayed at the Hard Rock, and this is the one we keep coming back to. Food at this hotel is also a stand out worth noting, as are the poolside drinks (named after Wet N Wild slides) Another thing which is great that I don’t often see mentioned in reviews is the on demand movies on the tv’s in the rooms are free, whereas this isn’t the case at the other universal hotels we’ve stayed at.

Room was very clean and spacious, we were on 10th floor, no noise at all. No issues using the lifts, plenty of them. Laundry facilities excellent. Large pool with plenty of sunbeds available. Excellenty situated hotel for ease of access to International Drive and surrounding area. Bus service to and from parks was outstanding, never waited more than 5 minutes on a bus. Staff extremely helpful.

We stayed at Universal’s Endless Summer Resort – Dockside Inn and Suites for 5 nights. We liked the following features: the cleanliness of the rooms, daily room cleaning, the fast check-in process, automatic check-out without the need to go to the front desk, regular shuttle service to Universal Orlando theme parks, the presence of Starbucks, as well as a big store within the hotel offering a variety of takeout food options, and the delivery of delicious pizza to the room. All these amenities together create a comfortable environment for guests visiting Orlando for Universal Studios theme parks.

Everything was great! Loved the resort! The food court had lots of options every day and it was reasonably priced. The easy way to get into the park via the shuttles was great. Made it so nice for us not to have to worry about parking there. Our teenage girls were able to ride the shuttle by themselves which allowed us all to be a little bit on our own schedules. The pool looked great but we didn't get to use it because it was only like 70f (too cold for me LOL).

Loved the ease of getting to and from the parks. The staff were friendly and informative. Check out was as easy as a text message, literally.

We'd been to a not so great hotel prior...so that might have affected our experience, but everything felt clean and spacious. The rooms were dry which were a big thing from the humid and damp hotel we'd just come from, we had a great view to the hotel, and I particularly enjoyed having starbucks in the lobby. You got the extra touch of luxury (as is to be expected from a universal hotel and the price), but it felt worth it.

The suite was perfect for us as had an extra bedroom as I was with my adult son. We loved the microwave and fridge.

Facilities were modern and clean. The staff were exceptional as well. So friendly, knowledgable, patient and never stressed even with hundreds of people lined up due to evacuations from the incoming hurricane. The shuttle to Universal was super handy, especially the late running ones back from Halloween Horror Nights and the separate queue for entry to the event was an added bonus.

Really great hotel and facilities in an ideal location. We traveled as a family of 3 and stayed in a double room, plenty of space and fantastic value. Pool is great and open till late. Food is reasonably priced. Make sure you use the unlimited refill soft drinks. You can purchase it in the restaurant for a week or 2, its great value. Shuttle buses to the parks are brilliant and run often.
