THE PEABODY ORLANDO WINS THE GOLD KEY FOR THE 18TH CONSECUTIVE YEAR
ORLANDO, FLA. -- AUGUST 10, 2007 -- The Peabody Orlando has won the Gold Key Award of
Meetings & Conventions magazine for the 18 th consecutive year. “Meeting professionals have
relied on the Gold Key mark to symbolize outstanding meeting facilities worldwide for over
three decades,“ said Lori Cioffi, editor-in-chief of the publication.
Since opening its doors for business November 1, 1986, The Peabody Orlando has grown and
maintained its legendary dedication to providing meeting planners and their clients, the best
possible service and state-of-the-art facilities through its registered trademarked Peabody
Service Excellence® culture.
“This is a most important recognition of The Peabody Orlando's unremitting dedication to
providing meeting planners and their clients the ultimate meeting experience: flawless,
memorable meetings,” said David Adelson, the hotel's director of sales and marketing.
“It is gratifying that for the 18 th consecutive year, meeting planner subscribers to
Meetings & Conventions magazine, one of the nation's premier professional journals for the
meetings industry, again voted The Peabody Orlando one of the world's best meeting venues.
The annual Gold Key Award of Meetings & Conventions magazine is one of the most important
measures of The Peabody Orlando's success, because it is voted upon by thousands of meeting
planners who have experienced the hotel's service and facilities, and can vouch for them.
Readership of Meetings & Conventions magazine represents some 70,000 corporate, incentive and
association meeting planners, who vote for those hotels that surpassed their expectations in
all aspects of the meeting planning process during the year.
This year, meeting planners based their selection of Gold Key Award winners on several criteria:
overall attitude of meeting staff; quality of meeting rooms; availability and quality of guest
services; quality of food and beverage service; proficiency and ease of handling reservations;
availability of A/V and other technical/support equipment, and possible range of recreational
facilities on- and off-property.
The Peabody Orlando is a Mobil Travel Guide Four-Star, AAA Four Diamond property of Peabody
Hotels within the portfolio of Peabody Hotel Group, and is a member of Preferred Hotels &
Resorts.
