EXPERT TIPS BY:

Orlando Local Expert
- Best for Romantic Hotels Because: At the Loews Portofino Bay, you can split your time between Hogwarts and the Italian Riviera (by way of Orlando). It's a "have-your-cake-and-eat-it"-style proposition.
- Best for Pet-Friendly Hotels Because: This is the most upscale of the three on-site deluxe resort hotels at Universal. Rover will surely appreciate the pet-centric room service menu.
- Best for Hotels near Universal Orlando Because: Italy comes to Orlando at the Loews Portofino, which means Harry Potter by day, the Italian Riviera by night. Aguamenti, indeed!
