The Peabody Hotel Orlando
9801 International Drive
Orlando, Florida 32819
In 1986, a new hotel opened across from the convention center in Orlando. This hotel was not geared towards a theme park experience. It was not geared for the casual traveler on a budget.
The Peabody Hotel was designed for a business person, for executives who may need to entertain and for travelers who expect nothing but the best in contemporary design - well, nothing other than luxury.
All rooms have dual-telephone lines, high-speed internet connections, voicemail, speakerphones, premium cable television and fully stocked mini bars. And all of the rooms are built for comfort.
Even the most basic of the rooms is called the Superior Room, and with it comes the choice of either two double beds or one king-sized. Though there are few descriptions that come to mind that offer quality better than superior, the Peabody Hotel has found a way to create them.
The Deluxe Rooms offer luxury with a spacious room, complete with a king-sized bed and a comfortable seating area. The next step up, the Executive Room, outdoes the Deluxe by offering a pullout sleeper sofa; for professionals traveling with their families, this room type creates the feel of a suite.
The Peabody has a variety of suite styles available as well - each stepping up from the one before as each room type did. Whether your needs are for a small space to do business with only a few colleagues or a space large enough to sit and negotiate a major contract, those needs will be met at the Peabody.
Your personal needs will also be met. Guests at the Peabody will have access to a Certified Nautilus training center where, not only can you work out, but where you can schedule a massage with a licensed masseuse. And if you prefer to work out without the gym, there are still a number of options available to you.
There is a full-sized lap pool, as well as an outdoor whirlpool. There are four tennis courts, complete with lighting for night play. And the hotel's golf services are available to reserve tee times, transport you to the course and even provide rental clubs if you didn't bring your own.
Because the staff at the Peabody know that travel can be chaotic, other attempts are made to meet your needs. The hotel offers an overnight laundry and dry-cleaning service to help make sure that you're looking your best. Room service is available 24 hours a day, as is a licensed baby-sitting service should you and your spouse decide to leave the kids behind and take some time for yourselves.
You won't even need to leave the hotel to find an exceptional meal. The Peabody has two high-quality restaurants - the Capriccio Grill, an Italian Steak House, and Dux, an inventive restaurant with a menu that changes weekly.
And, if you want something casual, make sure to check out the 24-hour B-Line Diner, where breakfast, lunch and dinner are served. For a quick meal on the go, stop by the B-Line Express to grab coffee, pastries or a sandwich.
No matter what your needs are, you're sure to have them met at the Peabody Hotel in Orlando.
