TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

I’ve just returned back home to the UK from staying at Stella Nova for a week. First impressions when the taxi pulled up was wow! It looks amazing from the outside! The reception area was also very spacious. Quickly checked in & went straight to my room on the 5th floor. I had a pool view room. The room was lovely. 2 big comfy beds. Massive tv. Bathroom was split, which I really liked. With the sink in one part & the toilet in shower in another park. The room & bathroom was super clean & fresh. The shower was good. There was also an alright hairdryer. Think if I had my hair extensions in, they would take a long time to blow dry though! I didn’t use the pool so can’t comment on that. But it looked really great. Lots of sunbeds. I used the market place nearly everyday to get a coffee. Prices weren’t too bad for a hotel. There was also a restaurant, but I didn’t use it. There is also a small shop on site, selling merch & a small selection of medication & toiletries. I used guest laundry which are on floor 2 & 9. The park is across the road from epic. There were frequent shuttle buses to Epic, city walk, islands of adventure, universal studios & volcano bay. Being a solo traveller, I felt very safe the whole time! Which was very important to me! I would stay here in a heartbeat. Thank you for a great week, Stella Nova!

Stella Nova Resort is rated as a value option, but it could easily be in the moderate category. The rooms are new, modern, and very well-equipped. The location is strategic for Epic Universe (walking distance or via the hotel shuttle), the staff is polite and well-trained, and there are full amenities including a restaurant, pool, gym, convenience store, and car rental. I stayed with my family and loved it. Just two points for improvement: parking is quite expensive, and housekeeping is only done every other day.

Arrived early so no available room yet, grabbed lunch at their cosmos cafe, good portion and tasty sandwich & tomato soup, we got a room afterwards so happy about that then just enjoyed a sunny pool day before dinner at bar helios. Stella Nova room was pool view, place was quiet except for the opening/closing of doors, theres water/ice machines for refill, did laundry on 9th flr. Gym equipment were new & clean, did not use housekeeping, just asked for new towels, coffee pods & trash bags. Easy walk to epic universe, shuttle buses to citywalk/universal studios/islands of adventure. stayed til new years and shuttles were organized to get us back at hotel after the fireworks in the parks. nice place to stay, wish to have shopped more in their souvenir shop as they have items that are only found there.

Stella Nova was a good value, conveniently located across the street from Epic and a short walk. The buses to all the parks and Citiwalk were also convenient and always available outside, we didn’t have to wait. The hotel is new and the rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious. We did not find the rooms to be noisy like many describe in reviews. The staff was nice and friendly and helped us with questions and with our luggage since we arrived early and our room was not ready. We went for New Year’s and wanted to stay close to Epic Universe so we could easily go back and forth. It was busy but check in was smooth and didn’t feel crowded. The only thing was that we had to wait a little for the elevators but it was not too bad. The fitness gym was really nice with new equipment and ample locker area to change if needed. All and all, I recommend this hotel and would stay again.

I was in the Stella Nova Bar @ 12 when they close and tried to make me pay a bill I didn’t contribute too. I disputed it. They called the cops. I was released without any wrong doing but trespassed. I’ve never seen in my life any time 3 ppl come out to harass someone about a bill I didn’t occur. Stay off the resort
