Microsoft sends teams to Orlando regularly for conferences at the Orange County Convention Center, partner events at Disney-area venues, and internal offsites. This Holiday Inn Resort sits right in the International Drive corridor, putting you 15 minutes from most conference locations while keeping your per-night cost well under the typical Orlando per diem. Corporate code 100857558 knocks roughly 15% off rack rate before you even factor in IHG points earning back.
The Property
The hotel is at 14500 Continental Gateway Dr, tucked just off International Drive in the tourist district of south Orlando, about 18 minutes from Orlando International Airport (MCO) by car. The surrounding area is packed with restaurants, outlet shopping at Orlando International Premium Outlets, and theme park entrances within a 10-minute drive. It is a suite-format resort property, which means more space than a standard Holiday Inn, though the vibe skews family-vacation rather than buttoned-up business hotel.
Rooms here are all suites, typically featuring a separate living area with a sofa bed and a partitioned bedroom, giving you a distinct workspace away from the bed. Expect a small desk or table area, mini-fridge, microwave, and coffee maker in each suite, which is standard for this Holiday Inn Resort tier. Wi-Fi is included for IHG One Rewards members, so make sure your loyalty account is linked at booking.
The headline amenity is the on-site waterpark, which you probably will not use on a work trip, but the resort also has a standard fitness center and multiple pool areas for unwinding after a conference day. There is an on-site restaurant and grab-and-go market for quick breakfasts and late dinners when you do not want to leave the property. Parking is available on-site, which matters in Orlando since you will almost certainly have a rental car.
International Drive is lined with chain and independent restaurants within a five-minute drive, including Pointe Orlando for sit-down dining and entertainment. The Orange County Convention Center is roughly 10 minutes north on I-Drive, and Walt Disney World gates are about 10 minutes southwest. For grocery runs or pharmacy stops, there is a Walgreens and several fast-casual spots within walking distance along Continental Gateway.
Your Savings Breakdown
| Rate Tier | Rack Rate | Corporate Rate | Points Earned | Point Value | Net Cost | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $130 | $111 | 1,110 pts | $5.55 | $105.45 | $24.55 |
| Superior | $210 | $179 | 1,790 pts | $8.95 | $170.05 | $39.95 |
| Premium | $340 | $289 | 2,890 pts | $14.45 | $274.55 | $65.45 |
On a typical mid-range night, you are looking at about $210 at the public rate, which drops to roughly $179 when you plug in corporate code 100857558 at checkout. You will earn around 1,790 IHG One Rewards points on that stay, worth about $8.95 in redemption value, bringing your effective net cost down to $170.05. That is roughly $40 back in your pocket per night, which adds up fast on a three or four-night conference trip.

Stack Your Savings
If you hold IHG One Rewards Platinum Elite or higher status, the corporate code still applies and your elite perks layer on top. That means late checkout when available, room upgrades at select properties, welcome amenity points, and bonus points earning of up to 100% extra depending on tier. Even Gold Elite members get a 10% bonus on points earned, so that 1,790 base earn on a $179 night becomes closer to 1,970 points.
The IHG One Rewards Premier Credit Card from Chase earns 10x bonus points on IHG purchases, which would stack with the base 10 points per dollar from your loyalty membership. That means a $179 night could generate 3,580 total points instead of 1,790, effectively doubling your return. The IHG One Rewards Traveler Card is a no-annual-fee alternative that still earns 5x on IHG stays if the Premier card is not worth it for your volume.
IHG frequently runs quarterly promotions like bonus points for every two stays or accelerated earning for consecutive nights, and these stack with the corporate rate. Book midweek when Orlando leisure demand dips, as the corporate discount tends to show a wider gap versus inflated weekend rack rates near the theme parks. Check for these promotions on the IHG app under 'Your Offers' before finalizing your reservation to make sure you are enrolled.
Bottom Line: Depending on the season and room type, Microsoft employees using code 100857558 can expect to save between $25 and $65 per night compared to public rates at this property, with the sweet spot around $40 on a standard suite. The all-suite layout gives you real workspace that most Orlando hotels at this price point cannot match, and the I-Drive location keeps you close to convention venues without paying Disney-adjacent premiums. For a multi-night Orlando work trip where comfort and cost both matter, this is a solid pick.
