Love this Resort”
Love the Maingate Lakeside resort! It is in a convenient location close to Disney and other attractions. Our room was clean and fully stocked. I was super impressed with the size of the refrigerator and closet space in the room! They had some Construction which hindered some things, but I still enjoyed my time there! Staff was friendly and awesome at helping solve issues!

Good budget hotel”
This was our third stay this year for getaway weekends at Maingate Lakeside Resort. Counter staff was reserved but friendly. We chose this hotel for it's close proximity to Disney World for which we have annual passes. Value for the money at MLR is very good, we booked through priceline.com again. We had a second floor end room in one of the outer buildings, we didn't need pool or lake view and the room was clean but we did have small bugs on the tile floor and along with vanity mirror, possibly small sugar ants. Not an issue that would prevent us from staying here again. Breakfast buffet was adequate but no spectacular and there were only two people on dining room staff so we had to wait for our check. Not thrilled at the "mandatory" hotel fee charged at checkout but for two nights wasn't a deterrent from booking a room here.

The staff was persistent in handling all of my needs and being patient with the longevity of my stay”
The staff did a great job at accommodating me and my staff. We were able to make our meetings on time and gain so much from our experience in Orlando. I appreciate the many opportunities that were presented with The Main gate Lakeside Resort and Hotel.

Very nice and clean wonderful place to bring kids”
We did not travel with our kids but wished we did it's a very nice hotel almost like a resort with the activities they provide for the whole family. As well as being very clean 👍👍. We will definitely be back with the kids next time. We normally travel to Orlando for the parks but we are coming back next time to spend a day at this hotel with the kids...

HIRE MORE STAFF!”
the staff was overwhelmed with people trying to check in. My reservation, booked on agoda, was never received by the hotel. Luckily I produced a copy of my reservation and they honored it, but over charged me, by accident. I did receive the difference back in my account within a couple days. Breakfast buffet is ok, as long as you get there early. Old food after 10am. Again the staff in the breakfast area was really overwhelmed and understaffed! The store across the hall cant open until the lady in the buffet area can open it and run that too. MAINGATE, help your staff be successful and hire more people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great location so close to DISNEY .. We love it”
It’s definitely an older resort but for the price and as much as you stay in your hotel room when Visiting Disney it’s totally a fine place to stay.

Great Place for the price!!!!”
I read good and a lot of bad reviews about this hotel prior to booking it, but decided for 31.00 a night how could you beat it. Well I'm not sure what rooms they "Bad Reviews" were in, but mine was very clean, comfortable and safe. I was staying alone and had no fears what so ever!! The staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was nice. The bartender "MB" at the pool bars was great. Christine at the front desk was awesome. Was it "5" star??? No, but really how much time do you spend in your rooms anyway. Most of the time you are at the parks, which by the way were very close and convenient to get to. So overall all this was an excellent stay for me.

Well worth the money. Stay without breaking the bank.”
Economical price but a resort feeling. Well worth the money spent. Spacious rooms. Pools, tiki bar, mini golf, beautiful lake view.

Great place for a few nights!”
The staff was so nice and the place was really cute! It’s not the fanciest place to stay, but great for a few nights for a good price and great location near Disney! It was 15 min from Epcot and 10 min from Animal Kingdom!

Have stayed here several times to go to Disney, etc. in the area. Low price and high value. Clean rooms, great staff, close to Disney.

Exceptional”
You cannot beat the price and location, especially considering we spent very little time in our room. Most of our day was at the theme parks, so value for our money was exceptional. Many eating options within walking distance and souvenir shops. Hotel staff very friendly and checkin and checkout process was quick. The room was a good size with a separate large vanity area from shower and toilet, which made it easy for 2 adults to get ready. The bed was comfortable and the AC worked perfectly. I would definitely stay there again.

Good location, not awful experience”
We only stayed one night after being at Disney World all day. We got in VERY late and had no problem finding it, as it is very close to the parks. We got in our room and were glad we were only staying one night, though. It was dated and a bit dingy, but not dirty. The bathroom was small, but clean.The beds were comfortable, but I found it odd that there was only a very thin sheet between me and the mattress. Staff was kind and helpful, but mostly, the price was really really good. For one night on a weekend, I was shocked how inexpensive it was. On a short-term basis, I would stay there again for the price. My wife may take some convincing, though.

Very good price, close to Disney World and has shuttles that takes you there and back. One downside is that pool close at sunset.

Great location”
We have stayed at this resort several times. For the money, the location is great. The rooms have everything you need. Fridge, coffee pot, cold AC, nice water pressure. Rooms are a little dated and could use a little more cleaning but overall it’s not bad.

The property is large with two pools, two kiddie pools, a large lake with alligators and snakes, ”
miniture golf, a tiki bar, gym, Pizza Hut, breakfast room $7.99 buffet, and game room. We were here in April and again in May and both times there were very few people in the pool or around the property. My family spends an extra day here just to use the pool. The rooms are old and some are worse than others but I think they are in the process of refurbishment. The rugs have to go and also they need paint, pillows and mattresses. I'm not sure if they don't hire enough help to clean and change the rooms or if we had a bad experience but I'd give them a 4 on a 1-10 cleanliness score. But the place is inexpensive, less than $60 for two beds, pool view, including taxes and resort fees. The front desk people are all pleasant and helpful and there is an information desk with flyers for the parks and attractions. They have one man working nights to oversee the entire establishment (except the front desk) and he's the best! We plan to return for our frequent Disney trips.

A great deal! Perhaps no carpets in rooms?? Other than that I found it to bd a great room for the price especially.

Very good”
Pros: Good location(the safer side of Irlo Bronson Highway, near Disney) 2 large pools, Pizza Hut on site, walking distance to mini golf and restaurants. Cons- resort fee was $11 per night, plus extra fee of $7 per night. Rooms are drive up(but rooms on the poolside seem safe enough) no door hook in our room.

Best value for short stays”
Comfortable room with good a/c and the basics. Restaurant had great breakfast. Dated buildings need fresh paint and lots of repairs. Pool is great and very refreshing. The lake and paths are great for walking with our tiny Maltese. Hotel IS packed though and lower your expectations or pay the BIG bucks for other resorts.
