A new quiet room for guests with autism and other cognitive disabilities recently opened at Universal Orlando Resort.  Located near the front of Universal Studios Florida to the right of the Studio Audience Center and Lost and Found, this safe and low stimulating environment will be open when the park is open. The park’s first designated space for a safe, quiet and low-stimulation environment has rubber floor tiles, an activity wall panel and two hiding tunnels.  You don’t need to reserve the room but you may need to wait until it is vacant to use. A 30-minute time limit is encouraged.  If there is a queue to use the room and your party requires assistance quickly, guests will be invited to Health Services or Guest Services to use the calmer spaces these offices can provide. Universal Orlando Resort’s Guide for Guests with Cognitive Disabilities also lists other quiet areas within the theme parks that typically have less foot traffic for those who need a break from the park action.
