Hilton Buena Vista Palace

[hsmamato2]

There's so much I love about this hotel... proximity to Springs/all other on property fun... great bus service to park- beautiful location.... pool... one MAJOR drawback. Parking- if you're able bodied, and don't mind walking etc, or not having a car on your trip- it's all great. However disability wise? No. With my mom (can't walk far) and her car we had 2 choices, pay $22 day to park and the handicapped spaces were SO.FAR. From the main tower lobby, up a big hill etc. I'm talking FAR. Or I was informed you could pay a valet to park for you. So either pay a lot, or park and hike. No decent parking option (decent priced) if you needed a space that wasn't a quarter mile from anywhere... it's sad bc otherwise, it's a great place.

Do you know if this resort gets the Disney amenities like early entry, or early access to G+/iLL at 7am?

Not sure about the G+ stuff...but it gets 1/2 hour early entry. Nice park buses also! Like I said, I love this place except for that one detail....

Did this one completely drop off the Chase travel portal? I’m not seeing it at all and was sure it used to be there

Oh I hope not.... last time I checked the portal, all the hotels on that boulevard were gone

Take it for what it's worth, but when I called Ultimate Rewards they said it's not showing in the system and was told it may be gone for good.

But, then again searching the U.R. portal with "Lake Buena Vista" was bringing up no hotel choices for entire months but changing to "Orlando" did and a different Ultimate Rewards representative was not helpful with that at all and I figured out the "workaround" myself.

Found that walk to
Disney Springs much easier from the Hilton though both are fairly close

The property showed back up for me on the travel portal again last night after being missing since the switch from Expedia
