Amazing staff
Our stay here was AH-mazing. We were there for 6 nights 7 days for a Scentsy convention. The staff at the Sonest En Suites on international drive were absolutely lovely. They went ABOVE and BEYOND what they are paid to do. Jessica was the absolute sweetest person you’d ever meet! And let me tell you, she has surprises ♥️ the desk staff were all amazing! We were so blessed to stay here. Made being away from home so much easier. Definitely recommend this hotel! It’s right across the street from ICON park.

Stayed for 9 nights as part of a longer trip to Florida. Location is fantastic and walking distance to a range of restaurants and bars. The hotel no longer provides complimentary breakfast which was a previous favourite but the rooms are a good size and clean and the pool is adequate.
