Hotel Landy now Open on Universal Blvd.
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Universal Boulevard, the newly unveiled Hotel Landy is set to become Orlando’s latest hotspot. Formerly the Crowne Plaza Universal Orlando Hotel, this reimagined gem breathes new life into the area, promising an unforgettable blend of fun, luxury, and innovation.
A New Era for Universal Boulevard
Previously known as Hotel Kinetic, the transformation into Hotel Landy has brought an exciting new energy to the resort corridor. The hotel’s striking architectural features include layered mesh lighting fixtures and graphic floor designs that create subtle illusions of movement. Guests are greeted by a soaring atrium and rooms adorned with geometric patterns reminiscent of kinetic art.
Outdoor Fun and Relaxation
The excitement continues outside, where guests can dive into the resort pool, enjoy a game of bocce ball on the Landy Lawn, or sip on refreshing drinks from the poolside beverage truck, aptly named Liquid Sunshine. For those seeking more activities, the hotel boasts a game room filled with retro arcade games, dueling Sudoku walls, and air hockey tables, as well as a yoga studio and a fully equipped gym. More curated shopping experiences are on the horizon, adding to the array of attractions.
Perfectly Positioned
Hotel Landy’s prime location at 7800 Universal Blvd. places it conveniently between Universal’s Endless Summer Resorts and the upcoming Universal Epic Universe theme park. As part of Marriott Bonvoy’s Tribute Portfolio, the hotel is owned by Monarch Alternative Capital and managed by HHM Hotels’ Echelon Luxury and Lifestyle division.
A Nod to Scientific Heritage
The interior design, crafted by Parker-Torres Design, pays homage to scientific innovation. Dining areas are inspired by Émilie du Châtelet, an 18th-century mathematician whose work in velocity theory paved the way for modern roller coasters. Guest rooms continue this theme, featuring science books for kids, sparking curiosity and learning.
“We are thrilled to unveil Hotel Landy as the latest addition to our growing portfolio,” said Ian Glastein, co-head of real estate and managing principal at Monarch Alternative Capital. “This revitalized property is a testament to the ability of the asset management team and other partners to execute high-quality and complex repositioning projects. We are proud to contribute to the perpetual energy and innovation in the heart of Orlando’s theme park action.”
Exceptional Amenities and Dining
Hotel Landy offers an array of amenities, including an outdoor lawn, yoga studio, gym, and game room, alongside 10,000 square feet of meeting space. Dining options are plentiful, with a bar/lounge featuring a full menu, a market serving Starbucks coffee, and the poolside beverage truck for a quick refreshment.
“The energy of this hotel blends seamlessly with our prime location on Universal Boulevard,” said General Manager Demetrius Hodge. “By embodying the sincere service of the Tribute Portfolio brand and introducing refreshed programming offerings, we’ve enhanced the guest experience. We look forward to unveiling even more innovative partnerships over the next year and beyond to keep guests and locals alike intrigued and coming back.”
