DLH Concierge or GCA Hotel Concierge?!?

[dwdeb]

Hi,
Originally booked 7nts at the GCA Conc. for 7nts next July, but was looking for the magical Disney atmosphere. CM suggested we might choose DLH instead, so we switched to DLH Conc. ARGH!! We are WDW pros, not as informed about DL resorts. Which one should we choose for that magical Disney theming..
We plan to spend quite a lot of time at the pool, and the Peter Pan pool looks fun. We will also take a few side trips to the beach, so DH can get in a few games of Beach Volleyball.
Thanks,
Deb

I love the GCH, it is my fav.
But, the DLH has a MUCH better concierge.
The pools are both nice, but the DLH jacuzzi is themed, but the GC has 2.
In July, you will want shade & the GC does not have much.
I would pick the DLH.
There are 2 great restaurants & a character breakfast on site. Also a water show, waterfalls & caves, ponds w/koi.
The GC has a beautiful lobby & several nice lounges to sit. It has a great fireplace w/storytelling for kids. You actually sit inside what looks like a fireplace & when you look up, you can see sparks of light/fire in the ceiling.
I like to go there myself.
Hope this helps.

I have been going to DL for as long as I can remember and if I were you, I would not even get the conceirge. For $125 extra a night, it is a total rip off. They have gotten so expensive in the last couple of years and no matter how you cut it, you are not going to make your money back. The items that you receive are not like they are in WDW. They do not have any hot items, and only allow you to take so many beverages at one time. They make your reservations for you, but you can do it easily yourself in the room. Don't get me wrong, I am not cheap when it comes to trips, but unless you have ten people going and they all want bagels for breakfast, and preztels in the afternoon, the your money would be better spent elsewhere. Have fun.
