The Peabody Orlando is a hotel located next to the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. The 28-storey, 891-room hotel was originally constructed in 1986.[1] Opened in late 2010, a $450 million renovation of the hotel added a 34 story building and resort amenities.[3] The expansion tower, standing at 428 ft (130 m), is the second tallest building in Orlando only being surpassed by the SunTrust Center downtown.[4]
