Get ready to experience accommodations that look like they were made for the gods. Universal Helios Grand Hotel provides a luxurious and high-class experience for all those who enter. Named after the Greek god of the sun, Helios Grand Hotel gives each guest a warm welcome with its gold accents and bright aesthetic. This new Signature Collection stay offers many amenities, from its “Epic” location to its delicious bites. Here are our top five benefits of staying at Helios Grand Hotel!
1. Private Entrance to Epic Universe
One of the best perks of Helios Grand Hotel is that guests are steps away from Universal’s brand-new theme park, Epic Universe. The park is literally right outside the windows of the hotel and within arm’s reach.
Because of this prime location, Helios has a dedicated security checkpoint and entrance into Epic Universe. Those who are staying at Helios can take advantage of this benefit and even enjoy the Early Park Admission perk, subject to availability. Be sure to check our Snapshot page to see which theme parks are offering Early Park Admission during your visit.
2. Enjoy Top-Tier Dining and Drinks
Located on the top floor, Bar Helios is one of the main reasons you should visit this stunning hotel. This rooftop bar serves decadent tapas and unique cocktails that cater to any palate. Not only are the food and drinks amazing, but the sweeping view of Epic is breathtaking.
Craving something delicious without the elevator ride? Located right off the lobby is Flora Taverna. This Mediterranean-inspired full-service restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and offers something for everyone, whether you’re fueling up for a park day or winding down with a hearty meal.
3. Soak in the Views: A Stunning Helios Grand Hotel Benefit
Bar Helios isn’t the only spot with a view. In fact, some of the best sights might be found right from your room. Many of the 500 rooms at Helios Grand Hotel boast impressive views that look directly into Epic Universe. From the comfort of your own space, you can soak in the dazzling lights, special effects, and maybe even catch a fountain show or two. There is nothing quite like it!
4. Relax in Style: The Lavish Pool at Helios Grand Hotel
Situated just steps away from the lobby is the luxurious, lavish pool that’s designed for ultimate relaxation and vacation vibes. Stretch out on a lounge chair and have a refreshing cocktail or tasty poolside snack delivered straight from Lotus Lagoon. Want to take it up a notch? Upgrade to a spacious cabana with extra seating and plenty of shade. No matter how you unwind, you’ll be channeling your inner Greek god or goddess in no time.
5. Get Around with Ease: Included Transportation to Other Universal Parks
While you’ll be staying right on the doorstep of Epic Universe, the rest of Universal Orlando Resort is still well within reach. Included bus transportation shuttles you over to Universal CityWalk, where you can shop, dine, and enter Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. Want to make a splash? Another dedicated shuttle will have you soaking up the sun at Volcano Bay in under 15 minutes. These offerings open the opportunity for visitors to experience all that Universal Orlando Resort has to offer.
