Universal Orlando Resort's highly anticipated Aventura Hotel is officially open to guests.

The new 600-room property is the resort's sixth hotel in partnership with Loews Hotels & Co. and boasts a prime location just steps away from all three Universal Orlando theme parks.

Highlights include contemporary guestrooms featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, the destination's first-ever rooftop bar and grill and a modern food hall.

The Aventura Hotel also represents tremendous value for travelers visiting Universal Orlando as guests will receive exclusive theme park benefits at a low price point. Perks include early park admission to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Universal's Volcano Bay as well as charging privileges with their room key, among other benefits.

Meanwhile, rates start at just $116 per night for a four-night stay.

The hotel's rooftop bar and grill, Bar 17 Bistro, will offer guests stunning views of all three Universal Orlando theme parks, including Volcano Bay's Krakatau, which spews blue lava at night. Urban Pantry, the hotel's modern food hall, will serve globally-inspired dishes with diverse flavors and fresh ingredients such as teriyaki stir fry and smoked salmon pizza.

Back in their rooms, guests will be able to use in-room tablets to order food, change the television channel and even adjust the room temperature.

Guests can reach Volcano Bay from the hotel via a walking path while complimentary shuttle buses are available for resort-wide transportation.
