Great Place

I stayed there while on vacation in Nov. 2009. I enjoyed seeing the mixture of people staying there. The staff of the hotel and the bars were very friendly and helpful. Will stay there again.

love club, but not to stay

I love this club, but I would not stay here. It's loud and isn't the cleanest looking motel. I would stay at the adjoining timeshare called the Gardens. They are big, comfortable condos that overlook the lake. The neighborhood is terrible though- it is Orlando's ghetto. Orlando has a ton of beautiful hotels and no one cares if you're gay. Take a cab and stay somewhere in style.

What a dump!

We stayed at this dump last Sunday night. It was by far the most dirty, filthy place we have ever entered. The lodging needs to be torn down or rented out by the hour to the drugged out clients in the bar area. What a big disappointment. Go figure the owners are straight...no self respecting gays would own such a horrible place. Is it really that hard to clean a hotel room? If I have to pay a visit to my doctor after staying there, The Parliament House will be hearing from my attorney.

Go and Have a blast

I have been going to the Parliament House for over 21 years, most of the same staff has been there for many years, the rooms are not that great, but if you are looking to have a blast and let your hair down, this is the place for you. There are not too many rules there, and what rules there are can be bended or broken, no one is constantly looking over your shoulder. Latin nights are on Thursday and Sunday night is the Famous T-Dance, Saturday is generally busier than Friday night at the bar, people walk the balcony at all hours in search of "fun", the pool is open to guests and locals, so you will have a mix of guests and locals at the pool which is never really crowded. Parking can be a problem on Saturday nights even for guests, just dont leave after 6pm and you should be ok on that one night of the week. Black, White, Latin and Asian all come here, the rooms are not the same as a Marriott, more on a Howard Johnson scale, but you do not go to the PH for the decor, get out, meet people, most people who stay or come here are friendly, They do have some hustlers, if you smart you can point them out, but there are a small number of them.
