doubletree disney springs - order of pickup for shuttles

[Sprockie]

Just wondering if the Doubletree at Disney springs on Hotel Plaza Blvd is one of the first or last on the shuttle schedule. If anyone knows, much appreciated.

There are seven hotels that are split into "A" and "B".

"A" Side (in order):

1. Hilton Lake Buena Vista
2. Holiday Inn Orlando - Disney Springs
3. B Resort and Spa
4. DoubleTree Suites

"B" Side (in order):

1. Best Western Lake Buena Vista
2. Wyndham Lake Buena Vista
3. Hilton Buena Vista Palace

Hint: The DoubleTree Suites is directly across the street from the Best Western. According to Google Maps, the walking distance is about 700 feet. When I stay at the DoubleTree Suites, I sometimes take the "B" bus because you can get off at the first stop and walk across the street. It's usually quicker if the buses leave at the same time.

Similarly, if you are concerned about getting a seat going to the parks, it might be worth walking across the street to the Best Western. Although, the Disney Springs hotels are much smaller than the Disney Resorts. That means the likelihood that you won't have a seat is less...with the exception of buses returning to hotels after fireworks.

This is precisely what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch. Excellent tips.
Tell me, whose tennis courts are they - the Doubletree or the adjacent hotels?

That's funny. I've stayed at the DoubleTree Suites dozens of nights and I didn't even know those tennis courts are there. I've even stayed on that side of the building on an upper floor and never noticed them.

The tennis courts are listed as an amenity on the official DoubleTree website.

Yup they are Doubletree, you have to go around past the playground to get to them so not obvious. And barely visible from rooms, I think there are some large trees that block them.

Buena Vista Palace and Wyndham have courts too.
