If your kids are clamoring for Universal Studios, but you are yearning for a calmer summer vacation, the Portofino Bay Hotel in Orlando gives the overworked phrase "fun for the whole family" actual meaning.
It's not so easy to seamlessly integrate relaxation for grown-ups with kid-friendly amenities, but the hotel -- which aims to recreate the seaside village of Portofino, Italy -- manages to pull it off in their six new two-bedroom Dr. Seuss suites (trying saying that five times fast).
The children's rooms (pictured after the jump) are playfully decorated with Horton and other characters from the beloved books, while the parents' portions of the suites are all tasteful European style and elegance. As an added security detail, children do not have their own exit -- so mom and dad can sleep soundly knowing the little ones won't escape into the hallways.
A reservation at the Portofino also means VIP status at Universal Studios Orlando...
