Fairmont Signs First Orlando Hotel, Opening in 2025

Fairmont Hotels & Resorts and Development Ventures Group have announced the signing of definitive agreements for the development and management of a Fairmont hotel in Orlando, Florida. Scheduled to open in early 2025, Fairmont Orlando will mark the brand’s 20th property in the United States

Fairmont Orlando will be located on 30 acres in the heart of Orlando’s entertainment district near several premier attractions and just 20 minutes from Orlando International Airport. The seven-story property will have 550 guestrooms, including 90 suites, 12 villas, and 87 Fairmont Gold rooms. The brand’s signature Fairmont Gold experience will be offered on the top floor and includes an expansive 5,000 square foot private lounge.  

Guests can expect several innovative cuisine and beverage programs. Among its seven food and beverage concepts, the hotel will have a 140-seat signature restaurant, a specialty Mediterranean restaurant, an upscale steakhouse, a gourmet café, and various bars and lounges offering both indoor and outdoor seating.

Additional property services will include a 12,000 square foot spa and wellness center inclusive of seven treatment rooms, a gym and two hot tubs; over 44,000 square feet of meetings and events space; three swimming pools, including a family pool, a lazy river and an adults-only pool; children and young adult centers; a library and business center; and ample retail space.

Development Ventures Group (DEVEN) will serve as the developer, expanding upon its 30-year year history of development in the Central Florida region. DEVEN has selected three internationally recognized design firms to lead master planning and design for Fairmont Orlando:  Atlanta-based Smallwood Architects has been appointed for the hotel’s architectural design; hotel interiors are being designed by California and New York-based SFA Design; and Toronto-based Studio Paolo Ferrari is designing all of the restaurants. All design firms are working in close collaboration with Accor’s Luxury Design & Technical Services team.
