Universal Orlando‘s newest hotel, Universal Helios Grand Hotel, is officially open!
Universal Helios Grand Hotel
Helios Grand Hotel opened early, on April 16th, while Epic Universe is set to open May 22nd. We got a first look at this “Mediterranean-inspired” hotel, including the highly anticipated Kids’ Suites! Come along with us for a FULL room tour!!
This all-new hotel was specifically built in part with the Epic Universe expansion (along with Stella Nova and Terra Luna). Helios Grand has 500 hotel rooms, 35 suites, plenty of dining options, family entertainment, and more! When you enter the lobby, you will “step into a sunlit sanctuary, where light, life, and laughter abound.” The hotel will have views of the new park, and even an exclusive entrance!
Bar Helios
You can book from a variety of room options, including Standard Rooms that have double queen beds and can accommodate up to five guests, as well as Club Level Rooms with double queen beds that offer access to the Club Lounge. There are King, Celestial, and Presidential Suites available to book as well.

Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando has kids’ suites, like Minion-themed suites. Well, to keep in theme with one of the new worlds at Epic Universe, How to Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk, Helios Grand Hotel has How to Train Your Dragon Kids’ Suites! And, we got to check one out in person!
The suite sleeps six, featuring one king bedroom, two twin-sized beds in the kids’ suite, and a pull-out couch that accommodates two. The suite can also connect to a room with two queen-sized beds, allowing it to fit more people and featuring two full bathrooms.
