Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
The recurring subject in this corpus is front-of-house, not the food in general. Reviewers who mention the staff rate this place 4.8 on average — it is working in the restaurant’s favour. After that, how clean the place looks appears most often — 38% of the corpus, averaging 5.0.
More reviewers landed on 5 stars than any other score — 20 of 23. Behind those, pacing is raised in 27% of reviews (4.7 average). Of the 23 rated reviews, 21 sit at four stars or better and 0 at two or below.
On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (94/100), with 2 intermediate violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. That result dates from February 17, 2026. That puts it ahead of 56% of graded kitchens in Orange County. What the inspector actually wrote up: food manager certification.
Both measures agree, which is the least complicated version of this page. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

What a wonderful place to stay with my CAT! Staff was very welcoming to us and made my girl feel welcome.

Stayed at the Aloft Downtown for only one night for business. And the valet guys Rey and Sergio was amazing, friendly, professional and courteous. The lobby staff was also friendly and great customer service.The lobby area of the hotel has a cool, modern, artistic vibe. Lots of vibrant color and local artist paintings. I would stay here agin.

Stayed 6 nights and we have no complaints. We were walking distance from everything. The staff was friendly all the time and the valet guys always had our car available as soon as we needed it. Findley from valet was extra helpful and kind. Will definitely stay here again

Loved the hotel. Almost adopted a dog there. Valet Luis was quick and personable and all the front staff team was wonderful.
-
I’m obsessed with this hotel. It’s a dog friendly hotel and they have a featured foster dog up for adoption. Not only that the entire staff went out of their way to take care of my friend who was sick and ensured we could check out later. I come to Orlando a lot for work and am looking forward to coming back: I especially want to recognize the housekeeping team, Angel, Brian, and Matt on the restaurant staff. The breakfast team and I forgot the other front desk employees are all wonderful too!
-
Very friendly consistent excellent service. Rooms are modern and very clean.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Aloft Hotel! From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional. The hotel is in a fantastic location, making it easy to get everywhere I needed to go, and my room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. What truly made this stay stand out was Ivy at Guest Services. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful throughout my visit. Her warm personality and willingness to go above and beyond made me feel valued as a guest and turned a great stay into an unforgettable one. I will definently be back!

Front desk service was terrible. Room wasnt ready on time. We were told the room would be ready withing 10-15 minutes. Went up to the desk 20 minutes later and asked about the room and the key was just sitting there when I was told someone would tell me when it was ready. There were random hairs in the shower and in the sheets. The pillows were abnormally small and uncomfortable. However the location to the kia center is unmatched. 10/10 location.
-
I am very satisfied with the hotel; the rooms were super comfortable and clean. The valet service—especially Luis—was incredibly attentive at all times; he helped with my luggage, gave me water, and opened the door for me right up to the very last moment. I will definitely be back.

I had an absolutely spectacular experience with Luis as my valet. The service was exceptional—he was incredibly professional, courteous, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend him

Valet Group was awesome as well as the front desk. E Did a great job on valet for me every time I needed my car. Hustled nonstop.

Booked for a quick stay, Sunday to Monday. As Elite Platinum, they gave me a little welcome bag of water and a snack, and a $15 voucher for breakfast that I elected over the 500 points bonus. Checked in, 2 adults and a Boston Terrier, very smooth process at the desk. Very friendly, very attentive. We got to check in early, 1p and they booked us in room 302 which was perfect, very clean and very spacious for my pup. Ordered room service at arrival, Chicken Cesar salad and a burger and fries, it was good. Later after our event, came back to the hotel before HH ended and grabbed two cock tails and dinner, bartender Matthew was great! Will definitely stay here again. Shout out to the great ladies at the front, seriously!! Helped me with breakfast so much!!

Bryan greeted me at check in and made the process quick and easy. I Had a great experience checking in here. Bryan was friendly and easy to talk to, and the whole process was quick and smooth. He made a great first impression for future stays at Aloft. I could not ask for a better bartender than Matt. Matt is easy to talk to. Quick refills. Great conversation. Highly recommend Aloft to anyone visiting Orlando.
-
Bryan at check-in is the most professional individual I’ve encountered in years. He is highly skilled and a master of the hospitality industry. Matt behind the bar is a magician. He takes costumer care, engagement, and guest experience to the next level. I will not even consider staying anywhere else in Orlando.
-
Very clean. Housekeeper kept us filled with everything. Valet was great as well. Easy check in as well.
-
