On our recent trip to Orlando I decided to book us a room at the Nickelodeon Hotel. At first I thought the room rates were rather on the pricey side (even for what was included) but to put into better perspective for us it was actually cheaper. The reason is with five of us to sleep comfortably we need to book two rooms. At $148.50 a night (which included taxes and resort fees), at the Nickelodeon Hotel I found it too be a good deal, and less expensive then booking two rooms at a different hotel.
I wanted the kids to be able to have some fun when we were not at Disney’s Animal Kingdom and the Nickelodeon Hotel was perfect. I didn’t get a lot of photos while we were there but I did take this fun video of the kids getting Slimed! I was filming from the 6th floor looking down onto the “mass slime”
It turned out that going in October was a great idea when it came to walking the park all day, but not such a great idea when it comes to lounging by the pool. Or at least lounging by the pool at 9am in the morning when it opens. Thankfully the pool was heated but getting out of the water to the bite of the morning air was a little rough.
Now that the weekend is over I have only one thing to say…UGH my feet are killing me LOL!

That is a good price for two rooms. We have the same problem…always need a suite or two rooms.

You were up and out by the pool at 9AM? Girl, you’re crazy! At least you know that you’ll like the place when you come back during a slightly warmer season. 🙂

Looks like a fun place to stay for the kids! The rate isn’t bad at all for an Orlando hotel for a family of 5. While the weather was a little too chilly to swim, I bet it was great for walking around Animal Kingdom all day. This is the perfect time of the year to hit the theme parks!

Looks so cool, so fun!

I’m sure your feet are killing you! Sounds like you chose the perfect place to set up base on your Disney vacay. I love that the kids could get ‘slimed’ and wash it off right away in the pool.
Jenn says
I’ve always wanted to stay here sometime.
Donna says
My son would love it! And I know what you mean… outings like these are so much fun, but lots of walking. 🙂
Elaina- A Time Out for Mommy says
This looks like an awesome time!
Erika at PlayMG says
I can’t decide whether my kids would think getting slimed was the best thing about the vacation…or the worst!

This looks like a fun time but this past summer my daughter actually chose to go to Discovery Cove before visiting her aunt that lives in Florida. My husband too k her because i have never flown before and am very afraid. My daughter loved her first plane ride though

My daughter would have loved this! My son…not so much. He has some tactile aversions but she’d laugh her sweet self silly when she’d watch on tv. Looks like fun.
