Love the ambiance, close to all the bars...
My partner and I travel to Orlando several times a year to get away and we always stay at the Crowne Plaza in Downtown Orlando. It has a very modern, chic interior design and really nice rooms. Service is friendly and late night room service is always welcomed. It's a really short drive to Pulse, Parliament House, Sip, Savoy, etc. There are also several great restaurants nearby (Hue, Citrus, CityFish, and all the shops and cafes in Winter Park and Thorton Park). We find the downtown area very gay friendly and this is one of our favorite hotels.
