    Disney Hotels

    Well not just Disney hotels really, any hotel, how do we get to go in and have a look around? Is it really as simple as telling the guard/security, that you are dining there?[msnsmile]

    Just tell them you want to have a look around, they are open for non residents.

    The Wilderness Lodge is quite amazing, here is a photo of the lobby with the Christmas tree in it:

    It is the detail and the theming in the hotels that is amazing. We have stayed at the WL several times and love the background music, the beautiful walk down to the pool, the animal tracks in the concrete, the geyser, the boat dock, the grand canyon fireplace, the spring in the lobby, the Lincoln Logs for the kids to play with at the restaurant, the ... ... etc ... - it really is amazing.

    And for cocktail fans they do a lovely version of a Pina Colada with a dash of Chambourd in it - Mrs MTP's favourite!

    I have to say that the WL is one of the less used hotels by UK holiday makers, so you do feel more like you are on holiday. Definitely our Disney hotel favourite and a great place to stay or visit.

    Have to be honest, we have eaten breakfast in the majority of the Disney hotels , and the WL was our least favorite. The theming was amazing, but due to the pine trees there are alot of bugs around the pool area, top breakfast was the character breakfast at the Grand Floridian, and we spent the morning at the hotel just soaking up the place, it was lovely, but too pricey to stay. In fact you can make visiting Disney hotels for a meal , part of your itinery!

    We like to visit the Disney hotels for all the reasons already discussed and sometimes eat there, however I have never wished to actually board there. I prefer villas as you have breathing space, more privacy and you avoid being all "Disney'd out"[msnwink][msnsmile2]

    Is there any sites I can go on to check out the menus for these hotels and prices? Do I just go on the hotels site? I love Disney and I love food[msntongue] So a great combination if we do this.
