I would definitely request a high floor closest to Magic Kingdom. I had a room almost at the very end away from Magic Kingdom and still had an amazing view, but the noise from Chef Mickey's was terrible! It was NYE and I wanted to sleep in on New Year's Day, but I'm a light sleeper and woke up when that restaurant opened for breakfast. We were on the 7th floor, so I think if we were a little higher it would have helped. On the TV there is a channel where you can play the music for the fireworks, it's great watching them out on your balcony.
