Aloft Orlando Downtown

If a city stay is in the planning, the Aloft Orlando Downtown is a reliable, trendy choice: It’s near the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, the Amway Center, and shops and restaurants. Those familiar with the Aloft brand will recognize the usual amenities: The grab-and-go snack bar and gym are open 24/7, the Splash pool beckons afternoon dips, and an XYZ bar hosts a nightly happy hour (and boasts a particularly impressive Scotch selection). WiFi is complimentary, pets are welcome free of charge and special goodies await kids. Those who “Make a Green Choice” receive a $5 snack voucher or 250 extra SPG Starpoints for every night they go without housekeeping. This property suits casual business travelers and on-the-go couples.
