Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside

Gorgeous tranquil escape which is perfect when you’re trying to relax / escape the magical chaos of the parks. Not theme heavy but classic touches of Disney done beautifully. It is sprawling! Absolutely huge property but there are multiple quiet pools plus the stunning main & the internal bus system is easy to navigate and came by frequently / with extra buses during peak times. The restaurant & boat to Disney springs was also such a bonus. Lovely place to stay especially for couples.

Positive: New furnishingsBeauty everywhere. Staff excellent. Immaculately clean. Boatwright restaurant superior staff and food Negative: Nothing. This resort is above reproach. I return every year

My adult daughter and I stayed at Port Orleans Riverside for a two night trip. We found the grounds to be amazing. It felt like we were out in the wilderness and was incredibly quiet. The room was very clean and well-appointed with very consistent theming to the background story of Port Orleans. Like all Disney resorts, everything was in perfect condition with no signs of wear and tear. The layout of the room is not unlike the budget resort rooms. The toilet and shower/tub were in a separate space (a bit small) with the double sink and open closet in a separate space. There was a room darkening curtain that pulled across the sink area, so that you could move about without worrying about like waking someone else in the room. There were only two downsides. It would have been nice if there we

We have stayed here twice now and will definitely stay again. It's a good price point and I think the best of the moderate priced Disney hotels. Rooms are well-designed and clean, the staff are very friendly, the grounds are well-maintained with a large main pool and other pools closer to the lodge buildings, and bus service was quick and reliable. The food left a bit to be desired but it's decent, and we mostly eat in the parks. Highly recommend Port Orleans Riverside.

This was a very nice, quiet resort but it’s huge. The rooms were difficult to find and even harder in the dark. The staff were just okay. The people at the front desk were nice but no one else spoke to us and if they did it wasn’t friendly. The beds were comfortable so that was a plus but the rooms are pretty small. We only slept there but with 4 people it was tight. The food was pretty good. Overall everything was fine.
