Celebration Hotel: Diamond in the 192 Rough
The Celebration Hotel, located in Celebration, FL, is a diamond in the rough of the neon lights and cartoon buildings along Highway 192. The hotel is owned and operated by Grand Theme Hotels based in Orlando. Grand Theme Hotels manages the equally spectacular Westin Grand Bohemian located in downtown Orlando. Celebration Hotel has a small inn feel while tucked to the side of a tranquil but active downtown Celebration. For older families or romantic couples, the Celebration Hotel is definitely “Top Ten” if not “Top Five” material for Orlando. The property is steps away from a coffee house and several fine to excellent restaurants: Café d’Antonio (Italian), Celebration Town Tavern (New England fare), Market Street Café (American cuisine) and Columbia (Spanish cuisine). In addition, the hotel overlooks the downtown lake which is surrounded by a walking trail for leisurely strolls, biking, or blading. Beyond that, the location is perfect for visiting the theme parks and family attractions of Walt Disney World. From your first step inside the lobby, you’ll see this hotel is like no other. The lobby is composed of oversized comfy furnishings, a piano, lounge area, a large stuffed gator on display, and the front desk – which is literally a desk – no counter. The rooms are nicely equipped and all the views are easy on the eyes (lake view or downtown view). Most rooms include four-poster beds and a data port that is designed for use by any PC with an Ethernet card. The bathrooms are also a step above. Ceramic tiles and long marble counters enhance the finely polished fixtures. In summary, the hotel provides wonderful accommodations and will aid in making any stay in the Orlando area a more pleasant and relaxing experience. If you get a chance to visit this hotel, make sure to try one of the nearby restaurants, take note of all of the Native American art, take a dip in the private pool which overlooks the lake, and if your stay is over a weekend, do visit the lounge to experience some live piano music.
