“GREAT STAY”

“James”
Excellent
“Wonderful facility”
This was our first trip back to the Magic Kingdom in 20 years so when we were planning our trip it was difficult so really get a feel for each of the resorts from just the pictures and descriptions. I must say that we were very satisfied with our choice. We stayed in a Saratoga Springs two bedroom Villa and ended up in the Paddock building. This areas had its own pool and small food area which was very beautiful and a nice offering so we did not have to go all the way back to the main area to swim and eat if we did not wish to. The entire property was beautiful and well maintained. The transportation areas were well placed with ample shuttles. The food was good all though typical Disney over pricing was in place. The room it self offered a main living area with full kitchen and double sleeper sofa also two chairs and a bar seating area. The master with a King bed, full tub and separate shower. the second bedroom had two queens (yes actually queens) with its own tub/shower and a separate double sink area. We stayed here with a party of 5 adults and 3 kids and we all had our own space and were very comfortable. If your looking for over the top Disney this is not the place for you. While it was a Disney property there were only suttle hints of Disney charm rather than characters and logos everywhere. The price was high but by the time you averaged out 8 guest in one suite it wasn't that bad. I would stay here again!
“Quiet and Comfy”
The hotel itself was very quiet and comfy. Conveniently located next to Downtown Disney with regular shuttle service. The food was ok at the Artist's Palette, nothing great, but good enough for quick service. My only complaint would be the assistance of the front desk staff. I had a large budget to spend on as many trips and tours I could get my hands on. They simply told me the website or phone number and sent me on my way instead of helping me book any of it. Would have been nice for a little service in that regard. One night, exhausted, we decided to stay in. They had movies and board games to rent, ordered in pizza from another resort and just relaxed. Enjoyed our trip!!
“We love it.”
All rooms have a balcony and a beautiful view. You are very close to all the Disney parks with free transportation.
“We had a great time!!!!”
The Saratoga was a great place to stay. We stayed in a two bedroom villa - tons of room for a family of 5. The only drawback was the distance our building was away from both pools and the Main Front Desk Building. I would definately return to this hotel but would request a villa closer to these area.
“Not Impressed -”
Bad reception staff, had to ask for another to service me, and hotel is very expesive for the unit. as we do not have any preveliges inside the park for staying in this expensive hotel you may chose any of other Disney resorts that offr similar rooms for less price.
“Great Base Camp”
Disney's Saratoga Springs is a beautiful facility. Through Expedia, I lucked into it as I planned the trip of a lifetime for my kids. The room was well furnished--all four of us slept quite comfortably. The kitchenette made it possible for me to cut expenses by preparing several meals right there in the room. The hotel offers a guest laundry, a very good cafeteria, and excellent recreational facilities. Disney's staff takes customer service to another level. We were taken care of. And, if you are spending your time at the Disney theme parks, your transportation is completely taken care of by a more than adequate--and FREE--bus service. We also visited Universal Studios while we were there. We discovered that it was both more convenient and cheaper to take a cab rather than the independent/ for profit shuttle bus. Bottom line: I think the Disney Resorts are the only way to see Orlando. And I think that the Saratoga Springs is one of the more attractive options.
“cool hotel”
The only problem I had is they didn't have my park tickets.they said had to redeem my ticket vouchers at one of the parks.the lady at the park gave attitude when she had to do it.other than that the stay was great.
“Would stay again”
Check in was fast. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was comfortable and quiet. Used the Disney transportation system to access all parks. Never waited more than 5-10 minutes for a bus. Loved the easy walking access to Downtown Disney from our room. Would definitely stay here again.
