Since the Epcot view request isn't available now, does anyone have room numbers for a dedicated 2 bedroom with a great fireworks views at the BCV? Oh, and non-smoking too. Does this dream room exist?
There are really no "great" views of fireworks as many are low. However if you get a high floor with an Epcot view you should be able to see much of the fireworks. We had a 2BR in January but can't remember the room no. (I'm thinking 430 but may be wrong). BCV is shaped kind of like a "Y" with the pool sitting in the crotch of the Y (sorry- only tree analogy comes to mind). The upper left stem points to BC hotel, the upper right to the parking lot, and the bottom toward epcot . We were on the wing that goes to the parking lot facing epcot and our view spanned American pavillion to spaceship earth. I would think rooms on the wing pointing toward epcot on the south side would also have a nice view. There are a few nice maps of BCV but I can't locate them right now. Webmaster DOC has a nice one.
I would just request a non-smoking, high floor room on the epcot side and hope for the best
224,324,424 are probably the best, with 233, 333,433 the next best.
I have stayed in 422 the studio right next door to 424 as well as 333 and 433 which are 2BR and had a great view of fireworks. Put in your request for those rooms and hopefully you'll get one
We stayed in 424 last December with a FABULOUS view of the Illuminations fireworks. I wish I remembered to take pics of our view. I think we were able to see a bit of Spaceship Earth, the Eiffel tower, etc. LOVED the room. It was a great location and a wonderful relaxing evening view.
From Doc's great thread and what people have reported, I would think that the dedicated 2 Bdrm Epcot view would be..
324*,424
333*,433*s,533* -
342*,442*s,542 - ?? I'm not sure about the angle on these
352*,452*s,552 - ?? I'm not sure about the angle on these
353*,453*,553* -
367*,467 - we had 367 over canal, nice view slightly to the right
377*,477 - End of hallway next to self parking
*= two queens in the second bedroom
s= smoking
I just noticed I listed off 13 2 queen rooms. That is about half of that room type. I guess if you book a 2Q room it is fairly likely to get an Epcot view.
you can see a lot of the fireworks from 352 if you sit sort of "sideways" on the balcony - you also see a lot of the back of Soarin', but I don't think it blocked the fireworks (although I don't know what I might have missed)
(This ded 2 BR only has 1 balcony off of the living rm, no balcony for either br, not sure if that's standard at BCV)

Yep, it exists, but I have it reserved for me. So you'll have to find something else.
Seriously, by getting so specific with your request you can be very disappointed if you don't get them. So be somewhat generic with your requests and know which ONE you really need to have to be happy. That's ONE, not five. MS and the CMs at the desk more than likely will be able to get you that one request.
