About the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel
Pantlind Lobby Whether it's a stroll through the Pantlind Lobby, the great view from one of the Glass Tower rooms, the classical architecture, or your first bite of the Forbidden Apple at The 1913 Room, the Amway Grand Plaza is much more than a hotel. It's a true destination. The Amway Grand Plaza has been making history since the original hotel—The Pantlind—opened in 1913. Fashioned after English Adams architecture by designers Warren & Westmore, the hotel's special details included one of the world's largest gold-leaf ceilings in the Pantlind lobby. By 1925, The Pantlind was rightfully ranked "One of the Ten Finest Hotels in America." That distinguished history paved the way for the new Amway Grand Plaza Hotel. Reopened in 1981 after careful refurbishing of the original building, the Amway Grand Plaza combines the graceful heritage of The Pantlind with the modern amenities of the new Glass Tower.

During your stay at the Amway Grand Plaza, you'll experience the timeless beauty of the early 20th century alongside today's contemporary styling. Choose the historical feel of the Pantlind Rooms or the more modern pulse of the rooms in the Glass Tower. All guestrooms are generously appointed, featuring thoughtful amenities for your comfort and enjoyment. You'll find charming boutiques and galleries, a luxurious fitness center, a full slate of business services, in-room conveniences, as well as a helpful concierge who's always ready to assist you.
