This thread is more for fun and this hypothetical trip wouldn't be until 2026/2027.
First we will decide if we want to spend the extra for Disney hotel. If we don't, we will be looking at some of the non motel type options around. The older I get the more picky I am..HA! What are you suggestions for hotels within walking distance that are more moderate/delux?
But thinking about it- which Disney Hotel would you choose?
DLH: We stayed here in 2022 and it was a dream. We did 8 days at the resort and did a full day of no parks. We loved getting dole whip at the pool, using the pool, the hot tub that faces the pool.. we stayed in a standard room in fantasy tower, but could see the parks and fireworks. Recently on my solo trip I stopped by the new tower and had dinner. The new tower looked awesome.
GCH: I will say other than the entrance to DCA, this one doesn't appeal as much to me. One reason is I always feel like the lobby and areas are chaotic where as DLH felt calmer. Just walking through it, it also doesn't feel as Disney to me .
PPH: no expirence here other than the new picutres online. Only have been in the building prior to the overhaul when we ate at the now closed character breakfast there. The pictures look awesome and Pixar really appeals to my children while I'm more classic Disney.
So I would just welcome any thoughts! Do all three have the same level of service we experienced at DLH like being able to order food by the pool, transporting our luggage to the room, etc?
