We had a great time at this hotel! The atmosphere was filled with holiday cheer, and the decorations were stunning. The room was clean and spacious, though it could have used more USB charging ports. Service was a bit of a mixed bag due to understaffing in the restaurants, but it didn't overshadow our overall fun experience. Just a little note, parking can be hectic during busy times, so plan accordingly.

The Gaylord Palms offers spacious rooms and has a unique indoor atrium that really enhances the experience. While the staff is friendly, I faced some issues with service quality and misinformation. The dining options were also less than ideal, particularly in terms of price and variety before 4 PM. The location is pretty isolated, which can be an inconvenience if you don't have a car.

My stay at the Gaylord Palms was filled with memorable activities and comforts, especially with the spectacular water park and various seasonal events like the ICE exhibit. The room was clean and spacious, making it ideal for family gatherings or just some relaxing downtime. However, I experienced some issues like a lack of a microwave in the room and slightly dated furniture. The dining options were pricey yet offered good quality food. Overall, it's perfect for families looking for a fun-filled getaway but may have room for some improvements.

I had a nice stay at this hotel during a convention, benefiting from a room upgrade as a Marriott elite member. The property was easy to navigate and well-maintained, although the location is quite remote with limited dining and shopping options nearby. The amenities for families, particularly the water slide area, were impressive but unfortunately, the water temperature was freezing. Overall, it's a solid choice for a convention, but I would hesitate to recommend it for a vacation due to the location and pricey on-site options.
