Disney Trip Planning

[SCard]

Thank you so much for replying. I'm feeling better about using express...just one way from airport to Disney...and then renting a car, so we can go to Tampa after Disney to see family.

We usually stay in the Wilderness cabins which is great when we fly into tampa and put Disney in the middle of our trip, as we can get groceries and the kitchen in the cabin is useful. Since we are doing something different this time, by flying into Orlando (great flight prices)... it means the rest will be different..

I'm thinking of staying in Port Orleans - Riverside... they have regular rooms and Royal Guest Rooms... the Royal Guest rooms are more expensive...and the only difference I can see is the theme. We are doing a quick 3 day trip and won't be in the hotel much, so I'd rather spend money on food instead of hotel... is there something I'm missing?? is the Royal Guest room better in another way??

Anyone have anything good or bad to say about Port Orleans - Riverside??

Thanks again for responding with all your helpful info. I'll report when I get back.

a lot of good information here:

Have not stayed at POR, but were at Port Orleans French Quarter and the few times we shared buses with POR there were a ton of bus stops there. If you have a car and are driving to the parks, that would not be an issue. We walked over to POR and it is a beautiful resort.
