The hype
Unbeatable location for the price, but the rooms feel like a 2005 Sheraton while the lobby feels like a busy airport terminal.

- Walkable to Epcot and Hollywood Studios
- Massive Grotto Pool complex with waterfall and slide
- Marriott Bonvoy points earning/redemption on Disney property
快速了解： A convention hotel masquerading as a resort where you trade 'Disney magic' for a better mattress and a stiff drink.
@lifeonpoints 的评论: I stayed here for a parks trip and the location is unbeatable. Walking to Epcot in minutes was a lifesaver, and waking up to that water view made every morning feel magical. The beds are incredibly comfy after a long day walking!
住过这里的客人说
Reality check
You will walk miles. The hotel is massive, and the trek from the lobby to the furthest 'fingers' of the wings can take 10+ minutes.
- You prioritize location over theming
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy elite member
- You are attending a convention on-site
清洁与维护
6.5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily service is standard, but attention to detail (dusting high spots, vacuuming edges) is often lacking in older rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but tired. Grout lines in older rooms show age; water pressure is good but drains can be slow.
- Maintenance: Aging infrastructure. Reports of peeling wallpaper, scuffed furniture, and 'musty' AC units are common in non-renovated rooms.
- Linens & towels: Standard Sheraton quality. Clean and crisp, but towels can feel small and thin compared to true luxury resorts.
- Odors & scents: The lobby smells like signature white tea scent; older guest rooms often smell of humidity and stale air.

预订前须知
须知事项

- Transportation to Magic Kingdom is by bus, but it drops off at the TTC (Ticket & Transportation Center), not the front gate—add 20 mins to your commute.
- The 'Friendship Boats' to Epcot are slow; walking is often faster (15 mins).
行李打包清单
- DampRid hanging bags (for the closet if you get a musty room)
- Good walking shoes (the hallways are endless)

“Requesting a 'West Wing' room on a high floor for proximity to the pool and reduced noise. If available, a balcony facing the Boardwalk/Epcot would be appreciated.”
常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is it a real Disney hotel?
No. It's a Sheraton (Marriott), but it has official Disney perks like Early Entry and free transport.
Can I see fireworks from my room?
Yes, if you book a 'Resort View' facing East (Epcot) or North-East. Ask for a balcony to actually see them, otherwise it's just a window view.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the Grotto Pool and lap pools are heated year-round.
Does it have free breakfast?
No. Breakfast is pricey (~$30 buffet). Platinum/Titanium Bonvoy members can choose continental breakfast as a welcome gift.
How bad is the resort fee?
It's ~$45/night and mandatory. It covers wifi, gym access, and two bottles of water. A total cash grab.
Can I walk to the parks?
Yes. Epcot is a 15-minute walk; Hollywood Studios is a 20-minute walk (or take the boat).
内部人士建议
- ✨
The laundry room is ONLY in the Dolphin (ground floor, West Wing). Swan guests have to walk over to use it.
- ✨
Picabu (24-hour cafeteria) has a 'secret' Mexican counter that serves surprisingly good tacos and bowls.
- ✨
Camp Dolphin is one of the only drop-off kids' clubs left on Disney property—book a spa treatment or nice dinner and get 2 hours free.
- ✨
The bridge connecting the Dolphin to the Boardwalk is the best secret spot to watch Epcot fireworks without a ticket.
出发前需要了解的5件事
💡The 'West Wing' vs. 'East Wing' divide: West is convenient for the pool/laundry; East is a hike but has better fireworks potential.
💡The Magic Kingdom bus drops you at the TTC (monorail station), not the front gate like Disney buses do. It's a huge pain.
💡The elevators are incredibly fast but the logic system is confusing—you might wait while 3 full ones pass you.
💡The 'Resort View' category is a gamble; it can mean a view of the beautiful pool or a view of the roof of the convention center.
💡You can earn Marriott points on your room rate, but usually not on dining unless you charge it to the room.
