I haven't stay there but make sure you add their resort fee and parking fee to the total cost. It is an extra $60 a night for both.

The Waldorf is significantly nicer than any Disney deluxe hotel, and is almost always cheaper, even after resort fees (which can often be waived with a smile and a request) and parking.

How long did it take you to get from the hotel to the parks? and How was the pool?

5 minutes to hollywood studios, less than 10 to Epcot and animal kingdom, and about 10 to magic kingdom.

The Waldorf shares property with Hilton bonnet creek. The Waldorf pool is much more relaxed and luxurious feeling. The Hilton pool, a short walk away, has the lazy river, slide, etc

We had a great stay at the Waldorf on February. As an alternative to squeezing six of us into one deluxe room or splurging for two, we booked a one bedroom suite at the Waldorf that fit us all comfortably. We did not rent a car, relying mostly on the shuttle. It was fine for us; buses were never crowded and ran pretty regularly. We did take cabs a couple of mornings when we wanted to be at the parks a little earlier. Guests are free to use pools at either resort. HBC was a little livelier and more casual, with slide and lazy river. But kids liked
WA's too and we spent time at both. Service all around was great and attentive; we would absolutely stay there again.

Their steakhouse is the best eating you can find in Florida. (my 2cents).

That is what I heard. Made a reservation at Bull and Bear for my arrival night. Can't wait!
