What to do if the person in the room next to you snores

[RubySlippers]

so loud you can hear them? Has anyone asked to be moved? I know the person can not help it if they snore but some of the resort walls are a little thin!

Ask management to change your room.

Bring along some of those disposable ear plugs. They block out everything.

I guess I've been lucky never to have had major issues with noise coming from other rooms. Once at All-Star Sports there was a group of teens in a nearby room LOUDLY watching a game on TV ("YEAH! Go! Go! Go! OOHHHHH!!!!!") It continued till about 11pm, then silenced. I had decided at 10:30 that if it continued past 11, I'd call the front desk and complain, but since it stopped, I went to sleep and didn't complain.

Snoring is a tricky thing. It's not a behavior that people can control; it's not done out of intentional rudeness or clueless stupidity. It's usually caused by some medical condition and can't be stopped or quieted easily. But if someone in a nearby room was sawing logs loudly enough to keep me awake, I'd probably suffer through one night and in the morning I'd ask to be moved to another room.

I've tried them in the past. They make me queasy; I guess the lack of sound coming in does something funny to my inner ear.

Been there, heard that, not going back!

Yeah, I was going to say - I'd send my husband over there to sleep with them and see if I could get their non-snorer to bunk with me!

I bring the foam earplugs after honeymooning next door to an outrageously noisy family in Aruba. I literally woke up in the middle of the night thinking the snoring was my husband, only to find that it was the man in the other room on the other side of the wall!! Every night at 1130pm they would instruct their unruly children to quiet down, and give them the plan for the next morning, which normally started at 630am!!! After 4 days of it, I felt like part of the family!! Luckily, they left after day 4, and we were there for 9 days, but I never sleep without the earplugs now (even at home). They are just enough to drown out loud snoring but you can still hear a ringing phone, crying baby, etc. Now that I am a little older, and a little less tolerant, I would've definitely asked to be moved away from the snoring giant next door, if there were any other rooms available on property!! I'm too cranky to let a several thousand dollar vacation be ruined due to lack of sleep!! LOL

Hypothetical question, or has it actually happened to the OP? I realize the poster directly above has had the exact experience - but really, Disney's walls aren't SO thin that snoring from next door would likely be heard.

I'm not the OP, but all kidding aside - we have heard snoring from the room next door a few times - twice at a deluxe and once at POP. It doesn't tend to bother me...I always feel bad because I am sure the person would be embarrassed if they knew we could hear them.

My Dh snores and it drives me crazy - but I figure I married him so I have to put up with it

However, I also worry about the people in the room next door. On our last trip we were at SSR in a one bedroom. I was so happy when I saw that our bedroom wall was an outside wall that didn't connect to another room. I figured with the living room between our bedroom and the next room it would probably be okay.

trust me, I'm sure people next store to us in a hotel room can hear my husband- I live in a 2500 sq ft house and I can hear him when he's upstairs with the door shut and I'm across the house downstairs!
It's horrible. I often wonder if he bothers the neighbors -

My dh used to be the one people could hear snoring from another room. Then he went for a sleep study and it turns out he has apnea and stops breathing something like 20 times an hour. Now he has a CPAP machine and we all sleep better. Not much you can do if it's in another room except ask to be moved or get some earplugs but if it's in your room, maybe have a medical professional check it out.

Sound machine is a great thing to have when staying at any hotel. It drowns out all of the aggravating sounds that go on. I highly suggest getting one... they have them at Walmart. I bring mine everytime, and sleep like a baby.

We were once next to a family where the kid kept crying and crying and crying... and very loudly! This was no small kid, he looked to be about 6. I finally had enough and banged on the door between the rooms and strangely enough the kid quit crying. I never expect that, I was just tired of listening to this at all hours.

The walls of Disney hotels are not the best. I just hope for reasonably quiet people wherever we stay. I LOVE getting the top floor.

My DH snores so bad, I'm exhausted most of the time while we travel since I can't move rooms. Even earplugs don't help me. I'm seriously considering 2 rooms at a value resort next time so DD9 and I can have one room and DS13 and DH have the other.

As far as someone not related to you snoring in the next room, the only resort I've had major noise issues at is POP and there wasn't anything to be done about turbo toilets and hearing people do their business in the bathroom.

I'd just ask if they could move you to another room.
