If it's location your family is after, Hard Rock is the closest to the theme parks, just a 5-minute walk to Universal Studios. We love Hard Rock because it really is unique in the way that it caters to kids and adults.

If you're more interested in large rides like roller coasters, Universal is going to be your best bet. The same is true if you're a big fan of Harry Potter. If you don't mind some of the more family-friendly rides or you have little ones to bring along, Disney may be a better option.

However, the Universal Studios age recommendation is a fairly mature 8 years-old. If they're younger they probably won't be able to appreciate much of the entertainment or be able to go on many rides, but families do have a fun experience when taking a trip together.

It really depends on your interests. There are lots of adults who love Disney – I am one of them! Both are really great for kids of all ages though I do think of Universal as an older kid/person park more than a toddler place. But Disney, on the other hand, has something for every age from babies to grandparents.

Disney World has more for younger kids. If you're planning a once-in-a-few-years vacation, you probably want your little one to get to experience a variety of experiences with you, and Disney World—specifically Magic Kingdom—offers much more for the littlest ones than Universal.

What are the ages of your kids? If they are young (say 10 and under), LEGOLAND is much better than Universal Studios Hollywood. As mentioned above, LEGOLAND is designed for kids, while Universal is more of an adult park (basically shows and a tram tour). I would go for Universal.

At Universal, the wait times can be long for the bigger roller coasters, but the parks themselves are generally much less crowded. There's usually more room to space out and breathe without other guests crowding around you.

If your children are too small or unwilling to go on a particular ride that you want to experience, take advantage of our child swap program. Each ride and attraction has a family room where one member of your party can wait with the little ones while the rest of your party rides.

There is a lot of stimulation at Universal Studios Hollywood for toddlers. If you need a quiet spot to decompress (or you need to nurse a baby), hop into a quiet room in the Family Center located near WaterWorld. You can use a private room with a chair for an adult, and one for a child with some toys.
