It’s a big day for Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe!
The wait is over! We’ve learned all about Universal Epic Universe, finally got an opening date, and now it’s time to start booking reservations for its brand-new hotel: Universal Helios Grand Hotel!
Bookings are NOW OPEN for Universal Helios Grand Hotel, the brand-new Loews hotel INSIDE Epic Universe!
To make your reservations, go online to the Universal website and find the hotel under the “Hotels and Packages” section. You can also book via the Loews website.
The announcement of the Helios’ grand opening (May 22nd, 2025 — the same day as Epic Universe) and pricing has been such a whirlwind up to this point. Per Universal last week, guests staying at the new hotel can expect to pay at least $293 per night plus tax based on a 4-night stay.
Hotel perks include Early Park Admission, complimentary shuttle service to and from other Universal properties, Resort-wide charging privileges, and complimentary merchandise delivery. Can’t forget the direct, guest-exclusive access to Epic Universe either!
As for the rooms, several options with different views are available. The basic standard room is depicted below.
You can even book a Kids’ Suite based on the How to Train Your Dragon franchise!
We’ll continue to keep you posted with more Epic Universe updates as they roll out so stay tuned right here at DFB for all the latest!
