Waldorf Astoria Orlando

Waldorf Astoria Orlando

Located in the southeast corner of Walt Disney World, the Waldorf Astoria Orlando feels a lot like its New York counterpart. You’ll find similar design elements and notable dining establishments. But this Waldorf Astoria is decidedly Floridian, with citrus hues accenting the decor and on-site facilities. The big draw here is the 18-hole golf course and the cabana-lined lap pool and zero-entry pool are great for lounging and catching a tan.
