Disney's Grand Floridian Resort reviews

Written by

Considered Disney World's top hotel, this Victorian-themed hotel's look was inspired by the historic Hotel del Coronado in San Diego. The Grand Floridian offers a white-sand beach, a four-star restaurant (Victoria & Albert's) and monorail access to the Magic Kingdom.

Tacky and kitsch. - Man-Eating Sharks

First WDW hotel I experienced and ONLY WDW hotel I've experienced because no matter how hard I try, I can't leave the place! The atmosphere is amazing that gives you that little taste oif living large, the food and shopping are arguably best on property, the cast is terrific! The zero entry pool is fun, although I tend to enjoy the less crowded courtyard pool. BEST PERK being able to sit across the lagoon, get some food at the Arcade abnd watch fireworks as opposed to being stuffed in MK back to back with an amazing view. HIGHLY reccomend 9.5/10 - travis traymoore

The Grand Floridian is truly a flagship resort. It has arguably the best location of any hotel on Walt Disney World property, with monorail service to the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and two more of Disney's best hotels. The rooms are large and luxurious, and the landscaping is just beautiful. I can't wait to be back! - Winston Chapman
