Port orleans riverside royal rooms.
Its the closest moderate to a deluxe resort.
Its beeeeautiful and upscale out of all of them.
Alittle detail that makes a big difference is the center tv console in the room.
In other rooms and mod resorts its just a table, giving it a motel feel. But the royal rooms, its an actual console like the deluxe rooms. Makes a big difference.
Lookup videos on youtube.
This would be my choice as well.
We've only stayed at one mod (CBR) and we loved it. The grounds were beautiful, the food court was good with a lot of variety, the pool was fun, and the bus transportation was great. CBR is centrally located so it didn't take more than about 10 minutes to get to any theme park, water park, or DTD. A lot of people don't like how spread out CBR is, but we didn't mind it at all. With that said, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the mods. I would look at pics of all of them and choose the one that appeals to you the most. Good luck.
I've stayed at CBR, POR & CSR. POFQ I've visited but, have never stayed.
Food: QS-wise, POFQ has a few varieties unique to New Orleans cuisine. CBR has a huge food court and to me, a better selection and layout than the others. CSR has the Peppermill which has an ala-carte menu. Love having dinner here!
Not sure about FQ but, the others have TS restsurants: CBR has Shutters, POR has Boatwrights (sp?) And CSR has Maya Grill.
Best pool: CBR, CSR, POFQ and POR in that ranking. The pool at Old Port Royale in CBR is gorgeously themed with zero entry area. The one at CSR is huge with a Mayan temple. All four have slides.
Rooms: Love POR and CSR. CSR wins because of their duvets on the bed that makes it sooo cozy. CBR meh...they need a refurb. The room I was assinged this year smelled and looked no better than a motel 6. My coworker shared the sentiment which is why, until there is a refurb, I will not go to CBR again.
All of them have gorgeous grounds to walk around. CSR and CBR both have areas around lakes where you can sit outside and relax on chairs or even a hammock!
POFQ and POR have boat rides to DTD when there isn't bad weather.
Transportation wise, POR, CSR and CBR are HUGE resorts which, depending on where you're staying and time of arrival to your closest bus stop, may have you riding on a packed bus.
Depending on where your room is, you may have a long walk to the shops, reception and food court. This doesn't bother me as, when I arrive at WDW, my brain clicks into "there will be a ton of walking" mode.
So, my fav? It's a toss up between CSR and POR. If I had to pick right now, I would lean towards POR. I love the mansions area, (specifically Acadian house) and the boats to DTD. Also, it reminds me of a place I used to stay at as a kid.
I guess what I meant by "best bus system" is which resort has the most convenient bus transportion to the parks? Is there one moderate where the busses tend to be less crowded or take less time to get to the parks? I know all the moderates have multiple stops, so I know I won't have to walk that much to get to the bus stops, and I don't mind walking. I just don't want to waste a lot of time riding on a bus, especially if it's really crowded and I don't have a seat.
