The
Quorum Hotel, Tampa is billed as “The Business

You
leave your marathon meeting exhausted and rush to

extra large passenger with no sense of personal

stainless steel doors of the InterContinental
Tampa, and find yourself in an oasis of
tranquility and comfort.

Looking
for a vacation that’s close to home yet offers
you unparallel relaxation, fantastic countryside

cows, goats and the occasional llama. A small
stream gurgles at the base of the hills, running
beside an historic mill that made flour for
families as early as 1790.
