What are the different types of Universal hotels?
There are generally two official **Universal hotels** adjacent to Universal Studios Hollywood: the Hilton Universal City and the Sheraton Universal. These hotels offer the best proximity and are considered premium partner hotels. They provide complimentary shuttle service to the park entrance. Unlike the Florida resort, the Hollywood location does not categorize its hotels into different value tiers (e.g., Prime Value, Premier) but focuses on offering a convenient, full-service experience in Universal City.
