Overall Ratings & Reviews The Riding Academy Hotel

Lower budget option to stay at the equestrian center. It is far from the main Arena. Room was clean and nice. Be ready for very long hallways. Our coffee maker was not working. With such big hotel they need to pay attention to maintenance.

Such an amazing place to stay for adults and adults with children! Clean, cozy nooks everywhere, 2 gyms, fantastic pool! A+

Wonderful property. Beautiful amenities. Loved the 2 queen suite w/balcony. The bathroom is huge!

Excellent stay, very accommodating. Friendly, clean hotel

Beautiful property, Beautiful room, very friendly and helpful staff

Loved staying here- only complaint was that the walls were very thin and we could hear everything our next door neighbors were saying in main living area

Overall excellent experience. Beautiful facility.

Beautiful property, clean comfortable rooms.Staff is helpful and friendly. The only downside is there are very few food options, if youre a vegetarian you will most likely have to find food off site.

Wonderful property! Loved the large room and proximity to everything horses! I'll be back.

Really nice facility, over than the construction, great place!

The pillows could be a bit better on the bed; however, overall, my partner, and I had a wonderful experience at this hotel. It was absolutely clean. The service was kind and friendly and prioritized our needs. I will definitely be wanting to stay here again.

This is a new hotel on the grounds of the World Equestrian Center. It has lovely equestrian style decor in the lobby and public areas, and the rooms are spacious and immaculate. No actual restaurant or bar, but there is a place called The Tack Room in the lobby where you can get wine, mixed drinks, and snacks...albeit a tad pricey. However, I understand there is a shuttle that can take you to any restaurant on the grounds...and there are plenty. I had invited some friends to meet me in the lobby and we sat in front of the fireplace on comfy leather sofas and chairs and chatted for a couple of hours, undisturbed. The hotel is in the process of building a parking garage and another building across the parking lot. If you are in any way associated with horses, the WEC is a must-see.

It was great as we live in Gainesville only 25 minutes away. We stayed at this hotel due to the fact that it is dog friendly. Great service and fun to see all the horses.

Beautiful house with comfortable accommodations. Definitely planning to come back for more stays.

We love this hotel

Great place!

This is one of the nicest hotels I’ve been to! Beautiful, wonderful staff and super clean! This was my second time here and I can’t wait to come back! Thank you!

A very beautiful location, wonderful pool, lots of dining options. Easy to walk, drive and park in and around hotel.

Amazing for the money. It’s a 5 star hotel for 3 star prices.

This hotel is great! Friendly staff, super convenient location when attending horse shows or other events at the World Equestrian Center. Beds are very comfy and the suites are a great size for a family.
