Woohoo! GCR for $279 at Spring Break!

[2luvmickey]

Okay Disers, I don't know what to do:

I have Marriott for $257, with a $100 Disney gift card included, with parking.

I have used HH points for DoubleTree, still have to pay parking.

I have GCR for $300 total, plus parking, but it's in the park and I currently have a broken ankle so the convenience factor is BIG! (btw, I booked this through Orbitz, with a "dealpro10" promo code!!!)

I know this is not like WDW where staying in the parks is a must for me, is this really worth the splurge just for one night?

This one day trip is a belated birthday request. In the words of Sally O'Malley (from SNL) "I'm 50, book 'em Danno, that's 5 -0!"

Thanks!

What is GCR?

 

[2luvmickey]

Sorry, Grand Californian Resort

I don't know if the GCH is worth it for only 1 might... You check in at 3 and have to check out by 10(?)... Just doesn't seem worth while for 19 hours!

When you see the shuttle situation from the Marriot or Double Tree you might end up driving to DLR and paying for parking there too.

$300 for GCH for a night isn't bad remember with the resort fee and tax that will add on about $60. Still If it's a special trip may as well stay in the most special place.

Didn't they do away with the resort fee?

 

[Captain Hindsight]

You are correct there is no resort fee starting Jan 1 this year... Taxes may be about $20 and it will cost you $15/day if you want to park a car there.

Tax is 17%, so it will be more than $20. Couldn't tell though if the OP was quoting a price before tax or with tax included.

Yes, but added on a parking fee that was in the resort fee. Either way the cost is added on.

True but that would be a parking fee and not a resort fee.

Wow, $279...
Where did you find that price?would like to know.

Just so you know, I just booked for $312.00 (spring discount) and with taxes and fees my total is $364. So $52.00 in taxes/fees. That is without parking. Parking will be another $15 a day.

I found it on Orbitz - $279, then put in "dealpro10" for 10% off, with taxes came to $300.25, excluding parking. I couldn't even get a room through the DL website or the call center.
