Top Petting Zoo Ocala Hotel Reviews

The Equestrian Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful hotel. Our double king ringside suite was perfect for our mother daughter getaway. Plenty of space for two adults. Especially loved the half bath and clawfoot tub. Staff were lovely. A variety of shops in the hotel. Yellow Pony was a cool place for a casual bite. Stirrups served the best filet I’ve had in a very long time. Spa services were amazing…body treatment and massage were very relaxing. Art exhibit was spectacular."
