Advantages: Convenient for seeing Disney attractions, affordable, extended park hours just for Disney resort guests Disadvantages: No ghosts, parking lot kind of far from rooms, those evil little lanyard pins
...resorts are the budget lodgings Disney World offers its visitors, but gives their guests good value for their money. For people going to Orlando to see the Disney attractions, I recommend staying at any one of the Disney resorts for that portion of their visit. The perks that come with staying "on campus" outweigh what appears to be outrageous room rates. For anyone who is trying to keep expenses down on their visit, this resort is the way to go.

Scapp70
Advantages: This Disadvantages: That
...of the better resorts in Disney World. It sort of stinks as a whole that everybody doesn't know it.
Everybody should try and avoid this CD.
I hope everybody who vacations a lot, will please go out and spend their good money at Disney World, but maybe avoiding spending on this one.
This review used to be better. But I cannot write reviews for free.

Advantages: Disney branding entertains the kids, staff very helpful, immaculately clean. Disadvantages: Food is dreadful, complex prices are extortionate. Minimal room facilities.
...forced staff joviality (although in Disney they are "Cast Members") and their "The customer is always right" stance you will find yourself swinging between intense irritation at the incessant "Have a Nice Day" attitude and elation at a willing staff who will do anything to make you happy.
The All Star Complex is split into three sections, Sports, Music and Movies. Each complex is entirely separate from the other yet has the same array of facilities. ...

Advantages: Staying on the Disney estate Disadvantages: Pricey and Crouded
...to choose from and the Disney company offer a wide range of hotels with prices ranging from budget (their word not mine) to ridiculously expensive (my words!)
The cheapest option of the Disney hotels is the all star hotels. They are three hotels set on the outskirts of the Disney estate near animal kingdom and Blizzard Beach and provide a convenient point to rest your head after a long day pounding the pavements of the theme parks. You will have ...

Advantages: good value, plenty to do Disadvantages: a bit out of the way
...at the Grosvenor Resort near Disney Village.
We thought it was too expensive, so we booked one of the All Star resorts.
At the time there was a choice of All Star Sports and All Star Music Resort. Now I think they have expanded the resort to All Star Movies.
We chose All Star Sports, don't know why really, just picked it at the spur of the moment.
It was part of what they call a Disney Hotel.
It was going to cost me and my husband £799 ...

Advantages: Location, affordable, clean, helpful staff, big rooms, Disney everywhere Disadvantages: Food selection & price
...girlfriend (she's 23 & loves disney more than me!) went for a 2 week holiday in January 2007. Now we were on a budget so to find that there was a Disney budget hotel was a great find. We booked our holiday, including flights, transfers & hotel for around £500 each I think. We stayed in the Disney All Star Music Hotel.
Now the whole Disney area in Orlando would cover the size of Greater Manchester, so you get an idea how big the whole place is. ...

Advantages: Good Value, Excellent Free Transport to Parks, Disadvantages: Very Crowded at Breakfast.
...and this was our first disney hotel experience and it was worth every penny. We will visit this hotel again in June 2007.
This hotel is very good value. The hotel is based on the movies theme and buildings so every where you look you can find giant characters from the movies like woody, dalmations etc. Take a walk round the whole resort you can get some great pictures.
The hotel has two heated pools, an arcade, play area, food court, disney shop ...

All Star Movies Review ofDisney All Star Hotel, Orlandoby
meryll83
Advantages: Location Disadvantages: Rooms are basic
...over there, and used the Disney buses every day, I don't think we waited more than 15 minutes for a bus.
We bought vouchers through Virgin (at our welcome meeting) to use Mears shuttle buses with a quick phonecall, this we used to get to Universal. Seaworld was easy, a Lynx bus goes straight there from the Transportation and Ticket Centre near the Magic Kingdom. And from Seaworld you can get a courtesy ride to Discovery Cove.
I would thoroughly ...

...week, but all rooms in disney hotels are small compaired to hotels outside of Disney. They are brightly decorated, with 2 double beds in each room. There is some hanging space and about 3 drawers, and a table and 2 chairs. All rooms have a bath with overhead shower, telephone and television, which has the disney channel. The transport to all the theme parks is very frequent and reliable, we have never waited more than 10 mins. for a bus. the staff ...
