Let me start off saying I love both properties. We are DVC members, but stay more at the Waldorf and Hilton since they opened.
I know it is the norm for Disney area resorts, but their whole selling and advertising point that they don't charge resort fees. Waldorf is $25 a night and Hilton $22. What really gets me is that they are marketing the fees include things like free breakfast at the Hilton for kids. It has always been that way. The main difference is that with the charge you now get the extra perks that were for Hilton Honors members, discounts at pro shop and spa and internet.
So, if you are planning on staying, budget in that extra $30-$50 bucks for fees and parking.
