Non Disney Hotel near Coronado Springs Resort, Orlando

I am attending a conference at the Cornonado Springs Resort. All rooms are booked and they have put me at the All Star Resort.



I%26#39;m not interested in the Disney thing and want to know of hotels nearby that are nice, but they don%26#39;t have to be resort like...more of a business type hotel.



Thanks.

As far as I could tell from our trip to Coronado Springs, there is really not anything non-Disney close by. It is in the Animal Kingdom area and close to Blizzard Beach. Most hotels in that area cater to vacationers and families. Sheraton Safari is fairly close to WDW area. Good luck with your search.

The Walt Disney World Swan %26amp; Dolphin are hotels on the Disney property, but they are run by Starwood, not Disney, and from what I%26#39;ve heard they%26#39;re not as kid oriented perhaps as the Disney run hotels. They%26#39;re also not too far from Coronado Springs. There%26#39;s also the Hotel Plaza Blvd hotels (chain hotels on Disney property) to the east by Downtown Disney, as well as Gaylord Palms Resort, which is just off the Disney property to the east and south, and Orlando World Center Marriott just off the Disney property as well. Its a question of levels; virtually every hotel in the area is a resort catering to some extent to vacationers; these I mentioned are not quite as Disney oriented as the Disney run resorts. To go to a strictly business hotel with no hint of anything touristy, you would need to go to downtown Orlando, and with the traffic, that%26#39;s just not realistic.




Thanks for your help. I%26#39;ll look into your suggestions.
