Which Marriott

[Ela]

Does anyone know which Marriott is closest to WDW? I have some points I can use up but there are so many Mariotts around the area I don't know which one to choose.
Thanks,
Ela

I'm pretty sure it's the Marriot World Center. It is right outside the WDW entrance, across from the Nick hotel. We've stayed there a few times, but in the 'timeshare' part. We were in the Marriott Sabal Palms. The villas are on each side of the hotel. There's Sabal, Royal and Imperial Palms. The actual hotel seems really nice, great pool, too! I remember there was a Starbucks and a Champions Sports Bar in the lobby. The kids especially like the glass elevators. Good Luck.

Marriott World Center is right across from the Nick Hotel. It is a very short drive from the entrance to the MK. It is basically a straight shot.

Do you want full service or just a Marriott product?

Marriott World Center is the closest full service. Warning, they charge to park and it's a haul to parking!

Closer overall are a couple of other options.

In Lake Buena Vista there is a Courtyard. Personally I think it's the CLOSEST overall. It's fairly nice, but it's several years old. I stay there and have never had an issue.

Also in Lake Buena Vista is the Marriott Village. Pretty close and it has a Courtyard, Fairfield Inn and Spring Hill Suites. Any of these would be good choices, all of them are much newer then the Courtyard Lake Buena Vista.

I've stayed in Marriott Village. The only downside is the traffic. The intersection with 535 is a BEAR. Lengthy delays at time.

Marriott World Center would be easy in and out.

We stayed at the mentioned Courtyard one night and it was fine. Pretty convenient to the parks.

We have stayed at the Marriott Village (Fairfield Inn) several times- there is also a Courtyard there- and it is very nice, also inexpensive. There is a Bahama Breeze restaurant (great) within walking distance- fun place to eat and good food and usualy entertainment on outside patio. Marriott World Center is a little closer, but more expensive. Very nice also.

if you are talking about the one in DTD - it closed several years ago - it will open soon as a Holiday Inn.

here it is - not opened yet

Nope, this one is in Lake Buena Vista just up the road from the Crossroads shopping center. I love the location.

I also like the Residence Inn on Palm.

I believe Carol is talking about the Courtyard Vista Centre on the Palm Parkway.
