All of the Disney hotels are very nice properties with various theme-oriented designs, excellent amenities and the renowned outstanding Disney service. They offer certain advantages over the non-Disney hotels, but they also cost a bit more than comparable independent hotels. The prices range from moderately priced to very expensive.
Disney hotels are all located within the park, they are very convenient to all of the Disney World attractions. Free transportation is available on Disney buses, trains, monorails or boats to take you to any attraction.
