Waldorf Astoria Orlando

For those who need to be close to Disney yet not enveloped in it 24 hours a day, the Waldorf Astoria is a great choice.

Set within the much coveted Disney perimeters, guests can enjoy just a 5 minute journey into and out of the parks each day with the hotels complimentary shuttle bus.

When the parks are done, guests can be sure they are returning to an envelopment of warm welcomes, superb service, fine accommodation and some very fine dining yet without any cartoon characters in site.

The Waldorf Astoria offers superb amenities from the relaxing Sir Harry’s Lounge and bar complete with relaxing piano music through to the stunningly set swimming pools which afford wonderful sunset views and offer private cabanas for guest use during the day and warming fire pits to sit around during the chillier evenings.

If you like to be pampered, the Waldorf Astoria Spa offers no less than 24 treatment rooms, a beauty salon and indulgent Carita Spa products. The extensive fitness centre is essential to work off those indulgences in the hotel’s fine dining establishments.

Bull & Bear offers some of the best steak in Orlando and Oscar’s is home to the original Waldorf Salad. With more relaxed dining at Peacock Alley and Acquamarine there is something for everyone. The Hilton Orlando is also right next door and guests at the Waldorf Astoria can enjoy their dining too. The Italian La Luce restaurant is home to one of the most famous desserts in this area. Butterscotch Dessert even has it’s own Facebook page.

Waldorf Astoria is family friendly too and the WA Kids activity centre is available for children aged 3-12 years of age. Families will love the “lazy river” at neighbouring Hilton Orlando as well as the weekend “dive in” Disney movies at the poolside.
