Grosvenor Resort In Walt Disney World

Choosing a hotel to stay at Disney World can be frustrating because of all the conflicting reviews you get on the internet. I read a lot of review on the internet before I book a hotel in the past but have toned it down recently because of the conflicting reviews. If you think about it, anybody can drop a review which makes me think “maybe this is from their competitors?” as such this makes me angry so I would like to write an unbiased review of Grosvenor Resort to set the record straight once and for all. Let’s get on it!

Grosvenor Resort is an official hotel of the Walt Disney Resort so you can expect a quality service and amenities from them. You can stop reading the review right here and make a booking on Grosvenor Resort knowing that you will receive a great value out of the price you paid for it. But if you want to read more, please continue.

Staying at Grosvenor Resort isn’t spectacular or amazing as you will find in other resorts like the Polynesian or Animal Lodge but for the price you pay you’re getting a lot value. (Maybe even more relatively speaking) The average price for Grosvenor Resort is $130 but you can get as low as $80 ++ on non peak seasons. The price is unbeatable and best of all it is located inside Disney World Park itself so it’s very convenient to travel around. (to give you an idea, you can walk down to Downtown Disney and Pleasure Island)

However the transportation is not efficient to other theme parks. Yes they do have transportation but you need to plan your time carefully according to their transportation schedule, miss one and you’ll have to walk to another resort for transportation. Call in advance and ask for their schedule and plan before you reach Disney World to have a pleasant and smooth sailing vacation.

As for the room it has everything that me and family ever needs, they have ironing board, iron, the refrigerator, a TV, video games for the children, hair dryer, data ports, a safe and a coffee maker. (Oh did I mention high speed internet connection?) The room is clean and well organized. (Nothing too fancy but just nice for me) There are three types of room you can choose which is the traditional, pool view (I had pool view) and tower. The next time I go to Disney World I would try the Tower room simply because they have better landscape view.

The staff has been very helpful and courteous all the time, if there’s anything amazing about the Grosvenor Resort it would be the staff! Everything that I need is taken care of pronto, very efficient. Sure not every staff is great, some are just ok while there’s one or two who looks like they have a bad hair day but overall the staff is amazing.

As for the restaurants they have an OK food but the best thing about the restaurant is you can dine with Disney Characters. This made my day because my kids are so happy and excited! There’s also a pub for those who wants to have drink or two, or maybe even play darts of watch sports.

The only bad thing about Grosvenor Resort is their ongoing construction of the hotel but if you’re reading this on 2008 chances are the construction is already finished. The bottom line is stay at this hotel and you won’t regret it.
