Universal Stella Nova Resort

Very nice hotel. Everything is new. Rooms designed like a space ship.  If you stay at the hotel you get the right for early morning access to the parks (we stayed for one night and got it for two days), provided you have tickets for the parks of course.

We loved everything , staff was great but wish they did have more amenities available or activities. Will visit again

I recently stayed at a fantastic new hotel that offers an incredible experience with plenty of Universal's Epic Universe nearby. The location is perfect for those who love theme parks and attractions. The hotel provides easy access to all the nearby activities, making it a great choice for anyone visiting the area. The staff were incredibly friendly and made my stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a convenient and enjoyable stay.

Great hotel and facilities, outstanding staff

Let's start with the bad....the Food! We got food from the Cafe once and the Market twice. From the Cafe, our family tried a pasta dish, chicken sandwich, salmon fried rice, and the chicken noodle soup. All 4 dishes were not finished. It was a total grease fest! Every dish was swimming in oil. We also tried the breakfast sandwiches at the Market and these were unfortunately a miss as well. It was dry and bland. The only saving grace was the Starbucks where we were able to get beverages and decent pastries. On to the Great....everything else! Service was top-notch. We were checked-in by Rebecca, who was very courteous and overflowing with helpful information. I appreciated all her tips. The room was nice as well. It was comfortable for our family of four, especially after spending the day at the parks. It was also located on the first floor which was nice because we did not have to use the elevators. The room surprisingly had some wear and tear to it which I did not expect since it's been open for 6 months. Alot of scuff marks around the room and bathroom and the closet door had a broken piece of hardware. But it was overall very clean and suited our needs. I also liked the walking distance to Epic. It was about a 10 minute walk in the morning, and a 10 min return trip back on the shuttle (including wait time). We also shuttled to IOA/US one day, and it took about 15 minutes. Way better experience with these shuttles versus the Disney Bus Transportation.

A new hotel near to Epic. The hotel is large but feels smaller. There was guest laundry and a cafe where you do counter orders then get buzzed to collect your food. The on-site market counter has muffins and coffee — the fresh fruit selection was poor and could be improved. The guest room was spacious and comfortable. I’ve seen other reviews mentioning noise. I agree— it’s noisy, mostly because of all the kids staying there. The on site shop for universal merch was well stocked. Friendly staff and a theme park concierge was available. All the usual park shuttles were well marked and convenient. A good stay.
