Benefits of staying at a Universal hotel during Halloween Horror Nights
Staying on-site at Universal Orlando can add especially interesting perks during Halloween Horror Nights.
Several participating hotels offer special access to a dedicated Halloween Horror Nights entrance between 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on event nights, provided the guest has the appropriate ticket.
This benefit is not valid during Premium Scream Night.
Additionally, certain hotels offer free transportation and other accommodation-specific benefits.
Universal Express Unlimited at selected Premier hotels
There is another very important benefit if you are evaluating where to stay.
The guests of:
Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, Hard Rock Hotel® and Loews Royal Pacific Resort
They receive Universal Express Unlimited access to participating attractions at Universal Studios Florida and Universal Islands of Adventure during their stay.
It's important to note that this offer is not valid at Universal Epic Universe, Universal Volcano Bay, or during Halloween Horror Nights.
Therefore, when comparing hotels, it is not wise to look only at the room price: the included benefits can significantly change the total value of a stay.
