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...

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.

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...

Coffee was fair. Should have made on date! Oddly, my chips were fresh. And the ones with the turkey were stale

Room Location was great overlooking water with fireworks in full view every night. Room had couch on same wall as tv so not used when watching TV no chair so bed it was. Club level food and drink plentiful but staff standing around smiling but only removing dirty plates would be nice if they went around asking guests if they would like a beverage. Courtyard pool was nice but hot tub was not hot. Very expensive...one and done.

Once again, we've continued our tradition of visiting the Grand Floridian several times, during our December Orlando stay. After a comfortable meal at the Grand Floridian Cafe (see separate review); we enjoy immersing ourselves in the resort's Victorian ambiance. We walk the grounds, view the landscaping, architecture and seasonal decorations, sit/relax as desired; and sometimes rent a pontoon, to experience the shoreline and waters. We then return to the lobby, and continue to marvel at the spectacular gingerbread house, and towering Xmas tree; all accentuated with an almost endless parade of fascinating humanity. We will usually listen to several sets of music from the lobby pianist (especially appreciated, if performed by the amazing Wes Hamrick). And, of course, the afternoon/early evening wouldn't be complete without indulging in a tasty Mickey's premium ice-cream bar. All and all; spending several days at the Grand Floridian throughout our 3/4 weeks in the area; is one of the primary incentives for our Orlando visits.

I made a reservation in Grand floridian to celebrate my weding anniversary enjoying the hotel that my husband chose. Our expectations were really frustrated. Our check in day was a sunny and beautiful day and everything we wanted to do was to have our room ready and enjoy the pool. Since our arrival, at 1 pm, we received diferent expectations of getting our room and it was never ready. By 5:30 pm we were told that we had to understand that they do not guarantee our entrance at any time, as the 3pm checkin should be understood as “starting as”. In the end we arrived at our room after waiting for almoçar 5 hours in the sofa, couldn t change to to the beach since it was already dark, and had to hurry up as we had a dinner reservation. In the day after Disney app started to ping at 9 am saying that we needed to leave before 11am and at this time the app checked us out. i definitely do not recomend.

Visited the hotel during a morning of viewing Christmas events around Walt Disney World Resort. Arrived by monorail. Impressive Christmas decorations and homemade gingerbread house built to (relative) scale. Cool that you can just walk around the hotel inside and out to explore the various areas. It was very hot when we attended so didn’t spend too long outside however the manicured lawns, fountains and walkways were beautiful.

Stayed for 4 nights during our trip to Orlando. Worth every penny, we absolutely loved it. Can walk to Magic Kingdom from here, or take boat or monorail, we tended to walk. We stayed in dvc studios with a lagoon view and the room was great. Beautiful resort and we will be back.
