I have stayed at the Grand Floridian twice. It is the most elegant amazing resort ive ever stayed at. It was so beautiful, u feel like you're in ur own little fancy world...is best how i can describe it. I played the piano in the lobby, which was such a memorable experience. We have also stayed in a room on the lagoon, from our room we could see Cinderella's Castle. We watched Fantasy in the Sky from our balcony and the dock near Narcossee's. We have also eaten at Narcossee's, very fun, but definitely a different experience. It was soooo fancy, lol. (I even ate french fries with a fork). We were able to watch the eletric water parade from the dock as well. Another benefit you get from staying at the Grand Floridian is the convenience of travel. There is a parking lot and bus stop, just like all the other resorts. However, you are also hooked up to the moneral system and the boat to the Magic Kingdom. It is the best hotel in Disney. Wow, look, ive gotten started and i can hardly stop. There is just so much to brag about for the Grand Floridian. There is the little restaurant where u can get breakfast, snacks, or dinner at anytime. Its soo convenient. Plus, there is little mouse ear boats (i think that's what they're called) and 2 pools, one with a water slide. Well, i think ill stop here...lol. Enjoy ur trip!!!
