The Pool at Hilton Orlando

"New in 2009, this popular hotel right off International Drive is a hitwith the kids for the huge, lushly landscaped pool and lazy river"

"The resort is also home to seven on-site dining and drinking experiences: Spencer’s (steaks and chops), David’s Club (contemporary gastropub fare), The Marketplace (light fare at breakfast, lunch and dinner), The Bistro (modern American cuisine), Lobby Bar (cocktails), Tropics Bar & Grill (poolside eats) and in-room dining"

"Families visiting this hotel get three pools, a palm-fringed lazy river to relax in, a kids' club, basketball court, tennis court, full-service spa, and a shuttle to SeaWorld; conventioneers, on the other hand, appreciate the vast meeting space, direct connection to the Convention Center, substantial restaurants and bars, work desks with Herman Miller chairs, and an on-site steakhouse, Spencers"

"Families should request a room in the East Wing, as these offer better views of the pool complex"
