The New (Part 4) WL FAQ Thread...Just the Facts M'am! - Page 3 - The DIS Discussion Forums

Trish Bessette · 02-16-2004, 03:34 PM

Does anyone have a layout map of some sort of the WL that shows the different room numbers and where they are located?

I'd love to see where a room is located once someone recommends a particular room number.

Thank you!

AspiringCindy · 02-16-2004, 03:39 PM

You can try
www.wdisneyw.co.uk/wlmap.html

when you locate #10 on the map, Room 6034 is just around the corner(heading toward the lake) and the room is on the left side.

Trish Bessette · 02-16-2004, 03:42 PM

Thanks AspiringCindy ~ your the best!!!!

Ratpack · 02-16-2004, 04:13 PM

Sixth floor is now smoking? Better go change my reservation, room 6060 WILL NOT be a good room for us now.

AspiringCindy · 02-16-2004, 04:20 PM

Not all the rooms are smoking rooms though!

Dallas_Lady · 02-16-2004, 06:36 PM

Wooo Hooo!

I just booked the WL for December 19-24!!! Now I have 10 months to obsess about all the details of our trip! How exciting!!

DisneyDmbNut · 02-16-2004, 06:56 PM

YEAH!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!

You will LOVE the Lodge...Especially at Xmas!

Tig-girl · 02-16-2004, 07:13 PM

Dallas Lady If you have not seen the lodge at Christmas, you are in for a special treat. It is, in my humble opinion, the most beautifully decorated resort. When you are sitting with your hot cocoa, (coffee for me) in the lobby looking at the tree, or watching the fire in that enormous fireplace, listening to the music, you will want to stay forever. My family wants to wait now and go back again in December also since our April trip is looking like a no-go! Maybe we'll see you there!

TooBoyz4us · 02-16-2004, 08:57 PM

Okay , so.....we have a courtyard room booked for September.
Originally, I really wanted woods view..............but when I called to book last week, the CM said no woods view available.

Now, WDW website shows that there is woods view available. But I don't know what to do........

Some say woods view are darker and quieter.Are the courtyard views noisy even at night? And do the outside lights from the courtyard area spill into your room at night?

One more question:D
I booked one night room only, and the other 5 nights with a package.I had to make two deposits, with the room only needing to be paid in full.
If I called to change it to woods view, how would the difference be refunded to me?Would they just credit my CC back?

HughJackman'n'me · 02-16-2004, 08:58 PM

...love the new JBJ pic (BTW ~ where IS corky??!?!?); sending PD your way...

Okay, troops, my 2-in-c (second-in-command for all you 'lay people' [minds out of the gutters please!

]...

)AC, has begun our 4th installment of our beloved WL FAQ thread. I'm liking VERY much what I have been reading (DisneyDmbNut, as usual, well done on your wether reports!). Hopefully, Fred'll be around to join us and get us started on a NEW AND IMPROVED WL MEMORIES BOX. Ratpack, although not all rooms on the 6th floor are smoking, you may just wanna steer clear of that floor altogether...

I had a courtyard view on our last trip, and I honestly don't know where the "noise rumor" got started! I'm one of those people that doesnt sleep well if I'm not in my own bed, and I'm here to tell you that I didn't hear a peep. We were also lobby view, by request, and again, no noise that I can remember being disruptive. I don't know, maybe I was so tired from doing the parks.............

on the one night ressie refund of difference.......I'm not sure, but I think they'd probably do a refund of full amount and recharge your cc with the new amount. Vets???

Mrs. J! Nice to hear from you!

If the website shows that there are wood view rooms available you should have been able to book that view. I would call back there are a lot of new CM's working...First request I put in gave me a standard room, next courtyard view there isn't anyway I can select my own view...

When I stayed in September and November I was upgraded to Inner Courtyard View and I didn't hear anything at night after I closed the balcony door. With the drapes closed no light comes into the rooms.

The two deposits would be correct...if you change your reservations the difference would be credited to your credit card if that is what you would like or credited to your room and any purchases would then be deducted from your balance.

Good luck.

Dallas_Lady,

Good for you...You will love The Lodge at Christmas time...Last year they had sleigh rides you could reserve everyone loved them.

Ga Girl · 02-17-2004, 07:09 AM

We had a courtyard view and LOVED it. Lots to look

at, not just trees. The curtains on the window block out ALL of the lights from the pool. The only noise we ever heard was the Electric Water Pagent. That did get alittle loud and if your not expecting it, it will startle you (did me on our first night). It runs by, I think, at 9:50 every night. We could see it from our balcony

The main thing is to HAVE FUN and think about all of us here that would love to be in your shoes, no matter how much walking they do.

WL Zippadee Do Dah Tip for the Day:

Enjoy the rip roaring good time to be had in the Whispering Canyon Cafe..It can be as fun as you make it!! Ask for a bigger straw, another fork, KETCHUP or just wear a Universal Studios hat!! Early breakfasts are quieter ( if you like that sorta thing ) ...The best part of WCC, it is right in your Lobby!!!

disneydill · 02-17-2004, 08:50 AM

I'm new to the WL and looking forward to staying there in May.
My DH and I are celebrating our 15th anniversary, (without our DDs) and we would like a king size bed.
The CM told me I must reserve a Woods view to have a better chance at a king bed, so I did.
So, does anyone know which rooms have king beds and are some views better than others?
THanks for all your help!!
