The Peabody Orlando is a hotel located next to the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. The 31-story, 1641-room hotel was originally constructed in 1986. Opened in late 2010, a $450 million renovation of the hotel added a 32 story building and resort amenities. The expansion tower, standing at 428 ft (130 m), is the second tallest building in Orlando only being surpassed by the SunTrust Center downtown.
