Top Orange Lake Hotel Reviews

Hilton University of Florida Conference Center Gainesville

Hilton University of Florida Conference Center Gainesville

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean. However, it would make the room more enjoyable if they would invest in a dehumidifier. Because the area is so warm, humidity can cause a sort of odor in the rooms. Keeping the a/c on can make the stay too cold rather than comfortable. Check in was easy however it seemed the room was currently being utilized when I checked in. However, they were able to upgrade and accommodate with a better room. Overall, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were clean."

"Room was clean, but very warm when I first arrived. Front desk rep said A/C only runs when someone is in the room. I was worried it would still be 79 degrees when I returned at night. It cooled down nicely, even without me there. :) I only stayed two nights so did not have room cleaned/serviced, but the cleaning staff provided me with new towels when I caught them cleaning other rooms. The breakfast is always good. Would definitely stay there again, only on off game weekends though because the hotel is too expensive during game/event weekends."
