How many times did you want to attend a hotel party in high school or college because you thought it would be amazing? Now that you’re an adult, it’s hotel party time any time you can have a staycation at one of our lavish hotels in The City Beautiful. To help you (and us) out, we’ve compiled a list of hotel happy hours in Orlando for you to explore with your date!
The Wellborn Hotel
With Lake Lucerne just a short distance away, a picturesque garden lit with hundreds of lights, and a historic setting, The Wellborn is made for a staycation. Conversely, a date night featuring drinks at The Wellborn and dinner at one of the many nearby restaurants would be great if a stay isn’t in the plans. You can score happy hour specials Wednesday-Saturday from 5-7pm. The menu includes four cocktails and three small plates for only $6 each.
Aloft Orlando Downtown
In the heart of Downtown Orlando you’ll find the stylish Aloft, a perfect place to stop for drinks before catching a show at Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. Happy hour at the hotel’s W XYZ Lounge is offered weekdays from 4-7pm and includes specials such as $6 well liquors, $5 house wine and $4 domestic bottled beers.
Bohemian Hotel Celebration
This stunning hotel would make a fantastic date night happy hour stop. The hotel’s restaurant, Lakeside Bar & Grill, offers “Celebration Hour” daily from 4-6pm, where you can select from a number of cocktails or wine by the glass for $6. Additionally, $10 gets you 2 classic Mules, and be sure to stick around for live music on Fridays from 6-9pm. Happy hour also includes up to 50% inspired bar bites like pretzel bites, chicken empanadas, Moroccan fries and short rib sliders.
Hilton Orlando
Located inside of Hilton Orlando, Spencer’s for Steaks and Chops offers happy hour from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at the bar and patio.
