Helios Grand Hotel at Universal Orlando: Full Review & Tour
Explore Universal Orlando’s new Helios Grand Hotel near Epic Universe. Get a full tour, review, and travel tips for your next family vacation.
Touring Universal's New Helios Grand Hotel at Epic Universe: Full Review
Universal Orlando has opened the doors to one of its most stunning and anticipated hotel projects yet: the Helios Grand Hotel, located just steps from the gates of the all-new Epic Universe theme park. I recently spent a full day and night experiencing everything this hotel has to offer—from the celestial-inspired design and rooftop views to the exclusive private park entrance and poolside relaxation. In this post, I’ll walk you through the highlights, surprises, and honest impressions from my stay.
If you prefer a video tour, be sure to check out my full walkthrough on YouTube here: [LINK TO VIDEO]
Helios Grand Hotel at Universal Orlando
First Impressions: Arrival at Helios Grand
Pulling up to the Helios Grand, it’s immediately clear this is not your typical theme park hotel. The architecture is sleek and modern, with celestial themes woven into every design detail. Golden accents, massive glass panes, and an airy, open feel make for a striking first impression. The hotel’s name, Helios—Greek for the sun—comes to life through abundant natural light and sky-themed motifs throughout the property.
Watch my video on Helios Grand here:
The Lobby: Small But Stylish
Despite its grand name, the Helios Grand’s lobby is relatively modest in size. It’s flooded with daylight and features tall columns, reflective surfaces, and a stunning solar-flare-inspired light fixture. A large central atrium creates an open, modern space, while details like stained glass artwork and subtle nods to astronomy create an upscale but inviting atmosphere.
Check-In & Early Park Admission Access
Check-in during opening weeks was a bit chaotic due to high demand and guests arriving early to access Epic Universe. Luckily, Helios Grand offers early park admission, and all you need is your room key to gain entry through the hotel’s private entrance to Epic Universe. Even if your room isn’t ready, you can still enjoy early access to the park—just grab your key cards and go.
I arrived around 8:30 a.m. to get my room key so that I could utilize Early Park Admission. Dozens of other guests were doing the same thing, and the line was out the door. I checked in online days before, but online check-in at Helios Grand is meaningless. I still had to wait in line, provide my credit card again, my driver’s license, and confirm all my information. What was the point of doing all this on my laptop at home?
The staff at Helios should have a separate line for online check-in, with key cards ready to go in envelopes. All the guests need to do is show their ID and take their envelope. Done.
Why has Helios Grand gone back to the 1990s with its check-in process?
Coffee Stop: Aurora Market
Before heading into the park, I grabbed a cappuccino from Aurora Market, the hotel’s grab-and-go cafe. The space is stylish and modern, offering coffee, pastries, and quick bites in a beautifully designed environment with white tiles, brass fixtures, and natural light.
I went to the warming oven to grab some breakfast sandwiches and coffee. The sandwiches sit on a shelf wrapped in foil, the shelves are labeled with the type of sandwich. For example, “Bacon egg and cheese” or “Egg and Cheese.” Well, the sandwiches were all on the wrong shelves, something that we didn’t realize until after we opened them. I paid $12 each for a bacon, egg, and cheese, but got sandwiches without the bacon. Isn’t bacon the best part?
I returned them to the cashier and selected 3 new sandwiches. These had bacon, but they had a tomato spread on them, which appeared to be mayonnaise-based, and was oozing out of the sandwich. I really don’t like mayo, so this was important to me.
So I had to wait in a long line again, and asked if all the sandwiches had that spread on them. The staff told me there is no spread - it’s just bacon, egg, and cheese. I opened the sandwich and showed them the pale orange goo coming out. It looked like mayo and ketchup. They didn’t know what it was.
I then asked for a refund. They told me it would 3-5 weeks to refund my money due to the account process they have. So I went to the front desk, and they refunded me instantly.
So we skipped breakfast and decided to find a snack in the park.
Super Nintendo World First Thing
Thanks to early admission, I headed straight into Super Nintendo World—one of the most popular lands in Epic Universe. This section often opens before the rest of the park, and arriving early paid off. With fewer crowds and a head start, it was a perfect way to begin the day.
Back at the Hotel: Design Details & Dining
Returning to Helios Grand after the morning rush, I was able to take in more of the hotel’s artistic details. The artwork behind the check-in desk and Universal Vacation Planning Center features stained glass inspired by planetary orbits and flowers.
Across from the lobby is the hotel’s signature restaurant: Flora Taverna, a Mediterranean-inspired dining space with both indoor and outdoor seating and beautiful views of Epic Universe. A wood-fired oven and sophisticated decor make this a standout dining option, though it's worth noting this is the only full-service restaurant on-site.
Fitness Center & Pool Area
To prepare for some pool time, I changed in the fitness center locker rooms—which were bright, well-equipped, and overlooked lush gardens. The fitness area includes cardio equipment, weight training space, and large windows to bring in natural light.
Outside, the pool deck is serene and spacious, with a uniquely curved pool lined by palm trees, private cabanas, and plush loungers. Even with its proximity to Epic Universe’s Dark Universe land, the pool area is calm and relaxing. There’s also a wading area for families and a Lotus Lagoon Bar nearby serving cocktails and small bites.
Hotel Transportation
Helios Grand provides transportation to Universal’s other theme parks and Volcano Bay via a shuttle bus. Buses arrive frequently and drop guests off at CityWalk, making it easy to explore the wider Universal Orlando Resort.
SkyBar: Rooftop Lounge with Epic Views
One of the hotel’s most impressive features is the SkyBar rooftop lounge. After a ride up in an elevator that features celestial projection mapping, guests arrive at a cozy, upscale bar under a domed ceiling with indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor terrace offers panoramic views of the entire Epic Universe theme park, making this a must-visit spot during your stay.
Reservations for SkyBar are highly recommended and may even be required during peak times.
Our Theme Park View Room
Theme park view room, 4th floor
Finally, our theme park view room was ready. Located on the 4th floor, the room featured floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Epic Universe. The view was truly spectacular, especially as the sun set and the park began to glow.
The room design is elegant but smaller than I expected. It has gold tones, modern furniture, and thoughtful touches like a built-in desk, a Keurig coffee machine, and automated curtains. While the room was on the smaller side, it was comfortable and stylish. The split bathroom layout with a walk-in shower and backlit vanity was particularly nice.
Overall, it was a nice room, but it didn’t feel like a luxury hotel. Compare it to Disney’s Grand Floridian, Disney’s Beach Club, Universal’s Hard Rock Hotel - and you’ll see the difference. My nightly rate was similar to these hotels. These hotels are within walking distance to theme parks too.
Epic Universe at Night
One of the biggest perks of staying at Helios Grand is the ability to walk back into Epic Universe in the evening. The park comes alive after dark, with lands like Dark Universe and Super Nintendo World offering completely different experiences at night.
Watching the park from our room after 9 PM closing was magical. Seeing guests slowly trickle out while the lights continued to dance in the distance was a peaceful way to end the day.
Morning at Helios Grand
I woke up just before sunrise and took in the quiet beauty of the park from our room. Even at 3 AM, Epic Universe remained illuminated. Downstairs, the lobby and market were calm again, perfect for grabbing a final cappuccino and enjoying the reflective pool before checking out.
Final Thoughts: Is It Worth the Price?
Our theme park view room cost $656 per night, which places the Helios Grand in the same price range as Universal’s Hard Rock Hotel and Portofino Bay—both of which offer complimentary Express Passes to Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. Helios Grand does not offer Express Pass.
While the room was well-designed, it was also compact, and the layout is nearly identical to rooms at Stella Nova and Terra Luna, which cost around $150 per night. This raises a valid question: is Helios Grand worth the $500 premium?
There are a few missing elements that might make guests think twice—like the limited dining options, no water slide at the pool, and the absence of Express Pass benefits. However, what Helios Grand does offer is a feeling—of calm, convenience, and light-filled beauty. It’s an escape, even while being embedded in the center of the action.
Should You Book Helios Grand?
Book it if:
You want the closest hotel to Epic Universe.
You value a sophisticated, quiet atmosphere.
You’re excited about panoramic park views and rooftop lounges.
Consider alternatives if:
You’re looking for more space or family-style accommodations.
Express Pass is a priority.
You prefer more dining and recreation options on-site.

Best Rooms at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
I show you where you’ll find the resort view rooms, water view rooms and theme park view rooms. Plus the best rooms this resort.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is one of the most popular hotels at Walt Disney World. It even has unofficial fan clubs, how many hotels can say that? It’s the only hotel at Walt Disney World with direct access to both monorail lines. But it’s a massive complex with multiple buildings and room types.
There are 3 sections that make up Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort: The hotel, which makes up the largest part of the complex, and two Disney Vacation Club sections: the Villas and Bungalows, and Island Tower. I’ll get into Island Tower in a bit for now let’s focus on the main hotel part of the Polynesian.
Standard hotel room at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
There are 850 rooms located in 11 buildings or as Disney call them, longhouses. At 450 square feet, they are among the largest rooms at Disney World, and most rooms can sleep 5 people in 2 queen beds with 1 twin-size daybed.
There are suites here, though they book up fast, often by celebrities. Club-level rooms are standard hotel rooms in a private building with access to a hospitality lounge.
Child-size fold-down bed
Each of the 11 longhouses is accessed via exterior walking paths, but rooms are located off interior hallways. You can cut through other longhouses if you need air conditioning or shelter from a rain shower.
There are no hotel rooms located inside the main building.
See my video on the best rooms at Disney’s Polyneseian Resort
The Polynesian’s longhouses are 3 stories tall and have elevators.
One of the most important things to keep in mind at the Polynesian is that not all rooms have balconies. All ground-floor rooms have patios, and all 3rd-floor rooms have balconies, but many second-floor rooms do not have a balcony.
Instead, they have a sliding glass door and a railing. I never understood why Disney did this. I mean who wouldn’t want a balcony here?
Now in addition to standard hotel rooms, Disney’s Polynesian Resort also has studios available.
These studios are part of the Disney Vacation Club but they are often available to book even if you’re not a member.
Room rates are about the same as a standard room but my favorite perk is that they come with a kitchenette. I prefer the studios over a standard room, for the extra space and amenities.
Studios are also very close to the Epcot monorail. More on that in a moment.
Deluxe Studio at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Disney World hotel room prices are based on the view you have from your room. At the Polynesian, room categories are Resort View (formally Standard View), Water View, and Theme Park View.
Where You’ll Find Resort View Rooms at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Resort View rooms are the most economical and have views of gardens, walkways, or possibly a peek at the monorail through the trees.
You won’t have any views of the lot here because it’s set far away from the hotel. Rarotonga has the most Resort View rooms, so there’s a very good chance you will get a room in this building. And that’s good thing, it’s very convenient.
Water View Room at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Water View rooms at Disney mean just that. It might be a view of the pool, the marina, or even the Seven Seas Lagoon. You can make a request for the type of water view you’d like.
You’ll find Water View rooms in the Fiji longhouse, where rooms overlook either the Island Tower pool or the marina. Water View rooms in Tuvalu and Samoa, will definitely have a pool view. Hawaii, the CLub Level building has Water Views overlooking the Seven Seas Lagoon. and Moorea - a DVC building comprised of Deluxe Studios also has water views facing the lagoon.
Theme Park View Rooms at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Then there’s Theme Park View, which comes at a premium price. You’ll be able to see Magic Kingdom from your room and even more importantly, the nightly fireworks.
You won’t find too many Theme Park View rooms these days and they tend to sell out fast, despite the ridiculously high price.
You’ll find Theme Park views in 4 of the long houses: Aotearoa, Tuvalu, Moorea, and Hawaii.
If you stay at Club Level, you’ll be in the Hawaii Building where rooms come in 3 views: Theme Park View, Water View, and Resort View.
Water View rooms here will overlook the Seven Seas Lagoon and may have partial views of the fireworks.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is a busy place because there is so much to do here.
So if you prefer a room that is located in a more quiet section of the resort, you have several great options here. And you don’t necessarily have to trade quiet for a room in a remote location.
To avoid people walking by, I recommend a third-floor room for extra quiet and privacy.
And in most cases, better views. Tuvalu theme park view rooms are among the best of the best, you get quiet, in a private area, and beautiful views of the Magic Kingdom.
Rarotonga has several rooms that offer peace and quiet, especially on the south side ground floor rooms, and all 3rd floor rooms, both sides of the longhouse.
These rooms are in the Resort View category so they are economically priced too. In the deluxe studios section, Tokelow, third-floor rooms facing east overlook gardens and they are in a nice quiet area.
Also, Resort View rooms in Pago Pago and Moorea, are also quiet areas of the resort.
Especially noisy rooms, just for fun, are the Moorea Water Views - because you’ll have a Magic Kingdom ferry passing through which makes a lot of noise.
This is true for the Bungalows numbered 7014 through 7020 - the ferry comes so close, that passengers will talk to you if you’re outside on your balcony.
Imagine spending $3500 per night in a Bungalow and having zero privacy. Samoa rooms in the water view category are super close to both pools, but if you’re on the east side facing the volcano pool, you’ll hear a DJ playing music all afternoon.
It can be so loud that you will have to turn up the volume of your TV in the room.
Now I said earlier that Polynesian is the most convenient hotel at Walt Disney World, if you agree after this segment, tap that like button to let us know.
Let me give you some examples. See, The Poly is all about location. It’s rich in transportation resources. You can take a boat to Magic Kingdom, buses to Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and Disney Springs, and of course the monorails.
But what makes the Polynesian unique is that you can board the Magic Kingdom monorail from the lobby, known as the Great Ceremonial House, and you can walk over to the Ticket and Transportation Center to board the Epcot monorail. In contrast.
This is the only Disney hotel with this benefit. And there is a walking path to the Magic Kingdom from the Polynesian, but I wouldn’t recommend it - it’s very far. It’s great if you’re a runner though.
Let’s see where the best rooms are located that are close to transportation.
If you want to be close to the Epcot monorail line, you’ll want to book a Deluxe Studio, not in the Island Tower, but a traditional studio. You’ll be in Moorea, Tokelau, or Pago Pago.
They are a 5-minute walk to the monorail station.
If you want to be close to the Magic Kingdom in terms of transportation, I recommend booking a Resort View room and requesting a third-floor or ground-floor room in Rarotonga.
This longhouse is just steps away from the Great Ceremonial house - you remember that’s the lobby, right? Now, rooms in Niue are also close to the Magic Kingdom Monorail and the bus depot.
Aotearoa is also close to Magic Kingdom via the water taxi. The water taxi can actually be faster if you see that a boat is just arriving.
Rarotonga and Nuie are among the most requested buildings at this resort because of their convenient location. l share my absolute favorite room at the Polynesian and where you can find it coming up. Hint, it’s in Rarotonga.
If you’re staying at the Polynesian to treat yourself and your family, you may want a room with a great view.
The Theme Park View rooms here are among the best Disney World has to offer. The best views are located m in the Hawaii building, which is Club Level.
Theme Park View rooms in Tuvulu offer amazing views of Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.
Third-floor rooms have slightly better views, but ground-floor rooms have beachfront patios. The issue with Tuvulu though is that you’re very far from the Epcot monorail station.
What if you want a great view but in a Water View category? I like water-view rooms in Aotearoa because you could get lucky here and get a partial view of the Magic Kingdom.
Third-floor rooms in Samoa facing east will overlook the quiet pool. Ground floor rooms on the west side will be very close to the volcano pool. You can even walk out your sliding glass door to the pool.
You’ll notice that I’m not providing specific room numbers here and that’s because it doesn’t matter. The odds of you making a request for a specific room and actually getting it, are slim to none.
See, the Cast Members who assign rooms have this giant puzzle to solve every day - like a game of Tetris. If you start hitting them up for room 3601, that could set off a chain reaction of having to move other guests around - who might also have room requests etc.
The key to making room requests is to keep them general. Don’t say you need a palm tree outside your room. They’re not going to talk a walk and see where the trees are located.
Make it easy and realistic for the Cast Members so they can honor your request. So say third floor in Rarotonga facing the pool.
That’s easy. Also don’t book a resort view room and request a view of the fireworks. That request has zero chance of being honored because Disney charges for that tye of view.
In December 2024, Disney opened Island Tower, a Disney Vacation Club property, the second installment of DVC rooms at the Polynesian. Island Tower is 10 stories high and has a few different room categories to choose from: duo studios, which are super tiny rooms, deluxe studios, and 1 and 2-bedroom villas.
But as a tower with only two sides of rooms, you’d think there would be just two view categories. Like the tower at Coronado Springs - there’s Water View on one side of the tower and Resort View on the other. Here at Island Tower, there are four!
Four room view categories for a 2-sided tower. We have Resort View, Water View, Preferred View, and Theme Park View.
So let’s break it down. Resort View: a nice way of saying parking lot views. Preferred View overlooks either the pool or the golf course, Premium View really means water or lagoon view,
Theme Park View, obviously has views of Magic Kingdom and fireworks.
I want to go back to Preferred View for a second though because there are two different views here. If your room is on the east side of the hallway, you’ll have a view of the Hawaiian-themed pool and other areas of the hotel, you’ll probably be very happy about that.
But if you get assigned a room on the west side of the hallway, you’ll overlook the parking lot, a busy roadway, and a distant golf course.
There is nothing tropical or Hawaiian about that view.
And Theme Park View rooms will have views of the Seven Seas LAgoon and Magic Kingdom.
Best rooms here would be on a higher floor to avoid lower obstructions like trees. You’ll also be ablet to the Magic Kingdom fireworks at night.
I think I should point out that many 2nd-floor Resort View and Preferred View rooms are level with the monorail beam, so you’ll have monorails (and passengers) going by your room every few minutes.
This means you’ll have very little privacy.
If views are important to you, you need to book a Theme Park View or a Premium View room at Island Tower. These rooms offer spectacular views and I can’t imagine anyone being disappointed here.
Disney puts a lot of emphasis on room locations and views, more so than other destinations. It’s a Disney thing I guess. Let me know what comments and questions you have about Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
I’ll be following along in the comments ready to help you.
I recently made a video a on Disney’s Beach Club Resort rooms. I show you the best rooms and the rooms to avoid,
