Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

My husband, great niece & I spent a wonderful week in a Deluxe Club Level Room at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. We were celebrating my 70th birthday & our 10 year old great niece’s first visit to Disney World. We had a large, recently refurbished room on the fourth floor near the Royal Palm Club lounge. This trip was a dream come true for us & an absolute splurge. Our last visit to Disney World was 30 years ago when we took our then 13 year old niece (now the mother of our great niece)! Given that we’re a lot older & have a few health challenges we didn’t have in 1994, we decided to design our trip to make it as easy as possible to spend our energy on enjoying our time there & as little as possible on logistics in coming & going from the parks, getting breakfast, etc. We also wanted to enjoy the beautiful gingerbread house & holiday decor at the Grand Floridian. As such, my criteria for value in planning this trip was on making choices to help make our dreams come true as opposed to focusing on cost. My niece & I are Disney enthusiasts who utilize our Magic Key Cards to visit Disneyland frequently. We were incredibly excited to visit Disney World together! I initially booked a non-discounted package through The Walt Disney Travel Company & rebooked a few months later when a promotional rate was offered that reduced the room rate & upgraded tickets to Park Hoppers. While it was still expensive, this made a nice difference. When we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted in the lobby & taken to the Club level check in on the third floor. There was no wait & we were given a delicious alcohol free punch to enjoy. We were taken to our room- #4422, which I had requested for its proximity to the lounge & its beautiful view of the hotel grounds, lagoon & the Magic Kingdom in the distance. It was perfect for us - spacious, beautifully decorated in a whimsically elegant Mary Poppins theme, had 2 queen beds & a sofa, a large nicely appointed bathroom, a balcony that had a beautiful view of the Magic Kingdom fireworks & super convenient lounge access. It was our very happy home for the next week! The twice daily housekeeping service kept our room clean and well stocked with fresh towels. The concierge staff was helpful, professional & friendly. One thing that’s important to know about the concierge at Disney properties is that while they’ll help with suggestions, directions & whatever they can help with- they can’t get reservations that aren’t available through the Disney World online reservation system. The only way to get reservations for very popular restaurants & events is for the guest or private Disney World travel specialists that can be engaged to handle the arrangements, to make reservations as they become available. That’s 60 days out for most things - dining, tours, etc., but not everything. For example, we wanted to get tickets for a holiday Candlelight Processional dinner package which includes dinner & seating for the

If i had a hotel reservation, I’d have walked out. Thread-bare, mismatched, dated furniture in the lobby, rooms are possibly better? I’ve stayed in most upscale WDW resorts over the last 30 years, never here because it’s never appealed to me. For no other reason than the Victorian vibe. Had a reservation at Narcoosee tonight. While this review may not be fair since I didn’t see a room, I can’t even imagine paying the premium price to lodge here. Narcoosee— great location, sent my appetizer back and didn’t bother with an entree. Atmosphere was very cute, on the water with fantastic view of MK fireworks. However, would never consider it upscale dining. As others have said, no table cloths , and to me really felt like a cute breakfast option rather than fine dining for dinner. In the future, the whole place is a hard pass for me.

Just don’t go with any expectations of escaping the cold north and enjoying morning coffee or evening wine on your balcony. Solo traveler and they stuck me in the only room on property with no balcony. Felt like a prison. Truly awful experience. Front desk told me too bad - it’s the only room available. They could have cared less. Doesn’t matter what you pay or what they advertise! No balcony for you! But here, enjoy bench seating for 27.

We went to one of our favorite quick service eatery. I got the caprese sandwich and my friend got the turkey. The turkey was good but the caprese tasted like it had been sitting there for a day. Coffee was fair. Should have made on date! Oddly, my chips were fresh. And the ones with the turkey were stale

Lovely Hotel with very nice rooms and friendly staff! However, we spent two nights in our room with no heat. Room temperature was unbearable. “No pun intended.” I asked for some form of credit and they offered to comp a $130 meal. Not very satisfying. Should have been one night’s room rate.
