Does hotels normally have play pens?

[violet13]

I'm bringing a 10 month old with us, staying at a Suite - offsite, I really don't care about a "crib" but want a Play pen. Or is what the hotels call "cribs" just like a Playpen? Obviously we don't travel much. We hate to lug a Playpen with us - won't be room in our trunk. Can you rent playpens for a week somewhere down there?

I believe a lot of the hotels have the porta-cribs that collapse, they are like play-pens with the mesh sides. Where are you staying? I would call and ask what they offer.

I am staying at a "Days Inn Suite" on Iro Bronson Highway, beside Old Town.

They also have cribs at some hotels. Ask the hotel directory where you are staying.

My sil used "baby's away" and I think they have a website. I have also seen posts about other agencies that rent baby equipment in orlando here. You can rent playpen, swings, crib, stroller, highchair etc. While most hotels will provide a crib I haven't ever seen them offer a playpen. The WDW hotels use the pack N play type which could also be used as a playpen.

I called my Suite, I guess they only offer the crib on long legs, so this will do me no good at all. I bet renting a playpen is expensive, have any idea how much per day? Thanks

rents play pens for $4 a day and $20 a week. They will deliver and pick up for an additional fee. Go to www.kidsinsafetyseats.com or do a search for "Orlando Baby Rental Equipment" that search came up with several companies. They all seem to rent any and everything for baby you could need. Good Luck
