Coronado Springs, Dolphin, or Signia Hilton Bonnet Creek?

[IsaKep15]

I am pricing and would love to book in advance, knowing prices could drop in the future. We’re planning a 11/20 - 11/24 trip with 4 days in the park. We’ve previously stayed at CSR (12/2013), POR (12/2014), Swan (12/2017), and back to CSR (7/2019). The kids will be 7 and 9 and are begging to return. Pricing right now shows just a $100 difference between all three, incl. any parking and resort fees. The kids love pools but they also love restaurants. They are not as into character meet and greets and are really focused on riding the rides this time. I’ve taken into account the extra AM hours and Dolphin’s inclusion in any extra PM hours. Figured I would crowd-source, because we are stumped. Thoughts?

Dolphin or Coronado. Depends on your desire for pools that time of year, Coronado has a far superior pool. Dolphin wins for location, but if it's still double beds that is a deal breaker for our crew. Signia Hilton is .... like any other Hilton anywhere, and feels like a conference hotel more than anything.

I forgot about the double beds! That is probably a dealbreaker for us, too. Thank you.

CSR for us, Dolphin a close second.

The double beds at Dolphin are a huge bummer. When I went with just my girlfriend in November we had a double bed room, I just looked at her and said we are sleeping on separate beds... Otherwise Dolphin would win, being able to walk to two parks is a huge benefit. If you'd be there for the MK extended hours, you can get so many rides done as well, the Epcot one isn't as valuable (unless the new Guardians ride will be available, Remy wasn't at first)

Thanks everyone! I think we are going to take advantage of the Disney+ discount and book CSR for room only in Aug, with tickets from Undercover tourist for over $900 in savings.

Hilton Signia is now super expensive especially with the resort fee!!
