Champagne in the room at SSR

[SarahAndMike]

Hi everyone, My wife and I want to give my sister and soon to be brother-in-law a nice surprise champagne gift when we all check in to our 2BR at SSR. I know the disney florist can do it, but I was wondering if the hotel itself can do this (I'm guessing it may be cheaper). Anyone know?

Bump

The hotel can not do it, as they don't offer in room dining, even if they did, they would not be any cheaper than the Florist. In room dining is very expensive.

I had the feeling this was the case but with disney, you never know

the hotel CAN do it.
My mother has done this twice for me and I just recently did it for my sister and her DBF (fiance now) for when they got engaged. I called the WL and asked for a special gift to be sent to their room. They gave me a few options. I picked the chocolate covered strawberries and champagne and it cost about $70.

Yes, that was done through in-room dining at WL. Resorts like SSR, where in-room dining isn't offered, wouldn't be able to do what you described.

I may not have perfect recall of this, but I think they have champagne available in the little grocery/gift shop at SSR. I definitely know they have wine. If you all are there together, perhaps you can pick up a bottle for them?

the hotel CAN'T do it, SSR does not have in room dining, unlike WL which does.

I do think mikesmom might be right about the gift shop.

As always you guys (and gals) know all. Thank you all.

OK, here is how it works.

1) Alcohol cannot be placed in the room, as it must be signed-for by an adult.
2) SSR does not have in-room dining for someone to deliver food.
3) ONLY the Front Desk Runner delivers to the rooms.
4) You can send something to be delivered AFTER they check-in.
5) No specific time is guaranteed for delivery, as the Runner has other duties.
6) Besides, they would be held up since they don't know the guest's check-in time.

NOTE: Whether by Disney Florist or outside companies, people are not permitted to enter the room for deliveries of flowers/baskets/etc. All room deliveries, except luggage, go through the Front Desk. Plus, DVC resorts (like SSR and OKW) now do "room ready" assigning at the Front Desk, so in many cases, the room is not even assigned until the guest walks up to the Front Desk.

NOTE2: With the exception of Club Floors at Deluxe resorts, they do not put flowers/basket/etc into the rooms prior to check-in (and frequently, not even on the Club Floor). There are too many reasons that particular room may not be the one the guest will get: . . . mechanical failure . . . room not clean . . . someone else wanted that room so they were swapped.

Coronado has in room dining also, in fact the only moderate that does.

They DEFINITELY have champagne in the store there, we bought a bottle a couple years ago.

Thanks for posting her link. I didn't know she added the room decorating. Neat idea.
