Editorial Summary

The creators document a two night stay at the Helios Grand Hotel, a new resort connected to the Epic Universe theme park. The video begins with preparations, including a trip to Walgreens for snacks and water to avoid higher hotel prices. Upon arrival, the creators explore the hotel lobby, check into their room, and provide a detailed room tour of their double queen accommodations. They highlight the convenience of the location, noting the ability to walk directly into the park. The vlog covers various resort amenities, such as the rooftop bar with celestial themes, the Lotus Lagoon pool area, and the availability of poolside cabanas. After a relaxing day at the pool, they dine at the hotel restaurant and eventually transition to a full day of activities within Epic Universe. They visit various themed lands, including Super Nintendo World and the Wizarding World, while sampling various foods like mac and cheese cones and soup dumplings. The creators conclude by sharing their final verdict on the Helios Grand Hotel. While they appreciate the seamless park access, they describe the hotel as feeling more like a budget option compared to other Universal resorts and suggest it may be better suited for guests primarily focused on park entry rather than a full resort experience.

Creator's Key Takeaways

I've never stayed at a Lowe's hotel before. But also Oh, it's your first time. It is my first time.

We got the opportunity to stay in the Helios for relatively cheap. These look really, really cool. Look how pretty.

Probably won't do that again cuz it's a little pricey. I don't know overall if I would necessarily recommend the Helios.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get waters and snacks from Walgreens before going to the hotel to save money.
Arrive at the pool before 1-2 PM to secure a free seat next to the pool.
Buy park tickets at the hotel desk if online sales are sold out.
