A question for Swan experts...

[SuiteDisney]

We've booked the Swan for 1 night in October (we're DVC members and want to go a day before our reservation at BCV). The question is.... would it be worth it for me to upgrade to Club Level?

I have enough American Express points to convert to Starwood points and upgrade using the points, but I'm not sure if I want to do it. If we upgrade to Club Level will we be on one of the top floors? Right now we have a lake view, will that stay the same on Club Level? Is Club Level comprable to Disney concierges?

I have plenty of time to decide. The reservationist told me that I would upgrade with points at check-in. But I could use any help in making up my mind.

I have never stayed on concierge level at any of the WDW resorts. I have stayed on CL more than once at the Swan. From what I understand, it is more concierge "light" compared with the Disney resorts....we enjoyed it, but we weren't paying for it (upgradedf). One major plus to the Swan Club Level is MamaT--in my opinion, she IS the Swan.....absolutely gracious and an absolute doll!

if you aren't planning on using the points for anything else, what the heck? enjoy yourself!

I will be staying at The Swan this December. ( my 3rd visit )
This time I will be upgrading to balcony room with club level access. I called Starwood about it already and they told me that I had enough points to do this, and to call back 5 days before arrival.

OK.......My question is this.......I want to meet Mama T annd say Hello. I assume she wears a name tag ?? If she doesn't wear a name tag, how will I know that it is her ?? She sounds like such a wonderful person !!

Claudia - I think she wears a name tag, but otherwise, she will introduce herself to you when you come in.

MommaT and Thabo both wear name tags. You'll KNOW when you meet them, as they will totally blow you away with their hospitality and graciousness!

***********>> Use the points! Better you use them than have them go unused! btw..thank you for sharing all of your great pictures on various threads!

Have a wonderful trip everyone!
