Are there any offsite hotels with inroom internet access?

[w8ting4pooh]

I'm thinking of adding 2 weeks onto my vacation. For this to be feasible, I would have to be offsite and able to work while I'm gone. That means good Sprint cell service area and free (or cheap) in room dial up access.

Any suggestions?

There are a number of hotels in the Disney area that have dataports in the rooms. I know that the Hilton at DD does and that their 1-800 numbers are free (at least for a certain time period).

I also know that the Caribe Royal has internet access in the rooms, not sure if it is high speed or dial up.

You can also try the Radisson Resort on Parkway Blvd...I think they have dataports too, but am not sure of costs.

Easiest way to find out what kind of connections and cost is to contact the hotel directly.

Try this site

They show lots of hotels with high speed connections near WDW. I know that some of them charge $10 a day, but I have had other hotels where it was free so you might try checking with the hotels listed.

If you can use the high speed it is really nice!

Free hi-speed access is gradually becoming more common. I know Marriott is introducing it at most of its hotels so you might want to check the ones in the Disney area. You can search at http://www.marriott.com

As for dial-up access, I've never seen a hotel that didn't have that option. As long as there is a phone, you can plug in a modem line. Of course, some hotels charge for local calls - usually $.50 in my experience. So that isn't too bad unless you have to dial in multiple times each day in which case it can add up.
