Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek

Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek details

Really close to Disney World and with all the style of a chic city hotel, the just-opened Hilton Bonnet Creek makes a luxurious base.

A striking modern masterpiece, this new hotel is seriously easy on the eye - it’s all clean lines and gleaming glass panels. And the grounds are just as impressive. With a natural creek, acres of mature woodland and a well-kept golf course, they give the place a real away-from-it-all vibe. But don’t let that fool you. Surrounded on three sides by the Walt Disney World Resort, this place couldn’t be any closer to the heart of the action – just hop onboard the complementary shuttle bus and you can be hanging out with Mickey in minutes.

As for the Bonnet Creek Resort itself, it’s all about luxury. Take the huge lagoon-like pool for starters, or the lazy river that snakes its way along the back of the hotel. It’s also worth paying a visit to the fitness centre, too. It’s a holistic haven serving up a well-equipped gym, a steam room, and a state-of-the-art spa. And for those who prefer to exercise in the open-air, jogging trails snake their way around the grounds, or you can hire bikes and explore from the saddle.

As you’d expect, the interiors are ultra impressive. Big beds with over-sized padded headboards and crisp white pillows take centre-stage in the bedrooms. And, in terms of contemporary trimmings, they come with Wi-Fi, 37" flatscreen TVs and in-room coffeemakers as standard. If space is top of your priority list, opt for a suite and you’ll get a dining area and a spacious living room.

The dining scene here is first class, too. There’s the chic Luce Restaurant, which has the atmosphere of a fine Italian eatery and a wine list to match. Or there’s the Harvest Bistro, where American classics are the order of the day. Elsewhere, try the poolside Beech Restaurant for free-flowing mojitos served up in a laidback atmosphere. Or head to the Zeta bar for sophisticated cocktails and a trendy New York-style lounge vibe.
