Nightmare Hotel

This is fantastic!!! I love this room!! This place has great rooms and this did not disappoint.

Unique (yet easy) puzzle that gave us some difficulty!

We just did this for my boyfriends son's birthday!! He wanted scary so we couldn't decide between the orphanage or the nightmare hotel we chose the orphanage and loved it, our game master kris was phenomenal, he said in his opinion the nightmare hotel was scarier and even stay open so we could do it as well. A must do game, we all had a blast and couldn't stop talking about it the jumpscares were perfectly timed, the puzzles were just difficult enough..

Really wanted to love this one as this was our first time here. I think it may have suffered from its mall location atmosphere. The room was fine with some clever puzzles and moments but our GM truly made the experience so upsetting. We had plenty of time left but we were overhinted unwillingly consistently throughout the room. There was a few puzzles that were just big time wasters which took the majority of the time, and if it was an actual puzzle they only gave us about 1 minute to figure it out before announcing over speaker (sounding annoyed too) the answer. Brought a decent room down to a quite bad time so I’m in no rush to return, sadly.

Overall, a really good room. They definitely put effort into being better than most. Impressive technology in some places, but pretty minimalistic overall.

This room was Awesome! And so immersive! The jump scares had me so frightened and not wanting to travel anywhere by myself lol. Do it, you won’t regret it.

This was our first room here. We were very impressed by the high-caliber theming and decor in both the room and the lobby/common areas. The common areas have a modern design aesthetic very different from the steampunky vibe at most places. The room itself had fantastic decor, theming and props. Completely immersive. Special effects were impressive. A few jump scares which we loved but some people might not like. This is a linear room and story and challenges were well integrated. A few new things we'd never seen before. Very high tech and only a couple of locks. Highly recommend. Can't wait to try more rooms here.

The atmosphere and jump scares of this room are probably the best parts. Our GM, M*, was okay. He was good at voice theatrics, but he was either trying to manage too many rooms at once or was not really paying attention to ours, as he gave us at least two wrong hints on one of the last puzzles, which wasted a lot of time. The "puzzles" in the room are also much more tech-based, but they felt kind of wonky for what they were going for or needed refinement to actually function on their own without GM assistance. Too many of the puzzles are just tedium chores without anything to really solve, so they just make you feel more like they're there to pad out the time to escape the room. There is also a hint tablet that is completely useless in the room, as we tried using it for the puzzle I mentioned before, but it just ended up giving a hint for another puzzle several rooms back.  Maybe we just went at a busy time, but it also felt a lot less personal than some other escape rooms we've visited, as we never even met our GM in person. We will probably try other escape rooms or this room at another location before returning to the Orlando one.
