As we enter the middle of summer in Central Florida, we’re slowly ramping up on conventions. As always, the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) remains the central point of many important gatherings. In this age of great concern for health and safety, the OCCC has and continues to work tirelessly with conference managers and safety officials to determine the safest approach to such gatherings.
Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando also continues to work closely with local health officials to ensure the safety and wellbeing of its guests. If you’ll be in Orlando for business or a conference, then consider staying with us as we’re less than a mile away from the West Concourse and one mile from the North and South Concourse. Speaking of the OCCC concourses, here’s what’s currently on schedule for the month of July.

A Hotel on International Drive
Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando’s location across the street from Pointe Orlando places us at the center of entertainment, dining, and shopping along International Drive. Our prime location gives you and your colleagues many options for how you’d like to wind down after a long day of meetings, sessions, and walking around the expo hall. Once the day is done, you’ll be thankful you chose a hotel close to the OCCC with pillow-top mattresses and many homelike amenities in your guestroom.
Best of all, our associates work diligently to keep you safe at all times with daily and thorough cleanings in public spaces. We clean touchpoints in common areas several times a day with hospital-grade cleaning products. You’ll now see floor signs helping you maintain a safe social distance from others. We’ve also placed other signs around the hotel reminding guests of good cough and sneezing etiquette, to wash your hands frequently, and to abide by our temperature checks, mandatory for checking in to the hotel. Partitions separate guests from the front desk staff, who wear masks.
Your guestroom is properly disinfected prior to your arrival. Linens are laundered in a state-of-the-art facility that utilizes disinfecting detergents and steam in the computer-monitored process, which is inspected monthly.
We’re doing all we can to help maintain a safe environment for our guests and associates. That means staying in line with CDC guidelines as well as those mandated by state and local officials. As it always has and forever will remain, your health and safety are our top priority.
