Live in So Fl. and have 2 little ones so we get up to Orlando at least 2-3 x per year. I have a number of friends and coworkers who have run or continue to run in that Marathon on an annual basis. I HIGHLY recommend using PRICELINE.COM for hotels in the Orlando area. Not sure how much you are willing to spend, but I have never paid more than $65 per night for a 3 star property (and they have all been either on or within a block of Disney Grounds), though never on the Marathon Weekend. I don't suggest going any lower than 3 stars as I am not sure what type property you might get. For less than $65 I have stayed at the Hilton, Doubletree Suites, Ramada, and a Wyndham Resort (the least desirable was the Ramada which was just OK, but fine for the money). The rooms on the hotels websites for the dates I have stayed have ranged from $100-$300 if you called direct to the hotel or booked online.
