Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge Coming to former Reflections Site in 2027!

I'm somewhat confused by the proposition that more hotel rooms means more people in the parks. This seems to totally discount the concept of people who stay at off-site hotels but still visit the parks. I have no idea how many people in the parks on any given day are actually staying at a Disney resort but I don't think it really matters.

Yeah I would figure that the goal isn't necessarily to increase park attendance by a bunch, but to entice those guests staying offsite to stay onsite instead.

If they have trouble filling the new rooms, I could see them adding/expanding more onsite benefits (longer early entry, more extended evenings, etc) to encourage more onsite stays

They may not be going to the parks, but it's probably going to be a lot busier near MK and FW area.

Yeahhh that's why this place is gonna be a no from me. I could see myself staying here for a couple nights and enjoying the lazy river at the end of a trip but the location isn't the greatest and the modes of transportation don't seem that great either. With how big the resort is it feels like it'd need to borrow one of the ferries instead of the small boats that usually go to the resorts.

Same for me, way too huge and do not like the modes of transportation. I dont see how this isnt going to have an internal bus loop. I guess theyre going to have a lot of resorts that take years to sell.

At the end of the day its about profits and this huge resort is smart for them to take up as much space as they can and sell a lot of points.

It is going to bring in more $ than CFW and thats what they care about. Im sure it will be beautiful and will sell well.

These "bland" hotels especially PIT are selling more points than ever. The new hotels sell well, saves them money, the room layouts are popular, why would they stop? While cool looking on the outside, some of these older hotels rooms look dated and the layouts are much better now, at least imo.

Can't wait to hear the LSL nicknames from the people that dont like it
