Drury's are so wonderful. We have been waiting for this hotel for years! I'm so glad they are going to have rooms for large families too. And I totally agree with you on the outlets.

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s such an amazing hotel! I can’t believe I’ve never stayed in one!

[@j.c.spencer9897]

It’s the reason we are staying there for our Disney trip! Disney doesn’t accommodate well for families of 5( unless it’s family suites which are 3-400 more than the drury) and this became the best option!

[@cookinmom35]

Great review!! Just booked our room w/terrace for our mother/daughter weekender!!

[@MagicalHijinx]

I hope you have a wonderful time!

[@k.a.harding5142]

Thank you for your time and commentary. I'm a Disneyland kid from way back, but am now planning our first trip to WDW for daughter's 30th birthday. It's a bit overwhelming, but your information is very helpful.

[@MagicalHijinx]

So glad to help

Best review I've seen of any Orlando hotel. So informative!!!!

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you found it helpful!

[@dazzlingdizney9335]

Watched this tour when you first released it. It made me decide to tack on 2 nights here before we move over to French Quarter as sort of a “pre-vacay” warm up. 😊

[@MagicalHijinx]

Omg yay! You’re going to have the best time!

Sup Demi! This hotel looks absolutely amazing! Everything you get with staying there…it almost seems too good to be true. Let’s hope it stays that way!

Seriously! Especially the discounts!

[@MadKingJRB]

Finally trying this hotel next week!! So excited!

[@MagicalHijinx]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Nice hotel! I like how they give free breakfast and dinner. Plus free popcorn, soda and water. Nice that there is NO Resort fee but you do make up for it in the parking if driving there.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Right but most places charge that anyway so it’s still way more affordable than the other hotels

[@laurenb364]

i stayed there a few weeks ago!! such a nice hotel and so easy for going to the parks!!

I e stayed at Drury hotels all over the US and they are wonderful hotels, the free breakfast and dinners and other perks, definitely help to save money for other things, I always look for Drury when I’m traveling

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’ve never stayed at one before but it’s definitely high on my list!

[@DianaPixieDust]

This looks classy and clean. I’m very picky where I stay and enjoy your reviews. The hotel advertises free breakfast buffet on their site but didn’t see anything about dinner. (not that I’m greedy) lol. I would imagine this draws in a lot of families. Not into noisy resorts loaded with kids.This looks worth seeing!

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’m obsessed with it!

[@yinkayasmin3567]

Thank you for the tour and review! I actually stayed here when it was the Best Western so I wanted to return to this hotel for nostalgic reasons(I was here 15 years ago!), I didn't realise they had changed the hotel but it looks amazing. I'll be coming to Orlando in June and plan to book here!

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s a brand new building except for the second tower. You’ll have a great time if you go!

[@end_of_twilight]

Remember there is also a Drury right by Universal as well!

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’ll have to check it out!!

[@kittykathy9532]

Drury’s are nice. I would definitely stay there. Unlike others, I am not into all the theming of the “Disney” hotels since I would personally rather have more bang for my buck than having to have Mickey Mouse all over my room. I’ve stayed at a Holiday Inn years ago across from Disney and had no trouble getting the bus into the park (TT)and then taking the monorail. It worked out great and I was able to get a free breakfast every day in the hotel, which saves a lot of money! So thank you for this review I really appreciate it!🎉

[@MagicalHijinx]

So glad I was able to help! I also love the Holiday Inn but I love this even more now!

[@JadeTheWolf1982]

FYI $25 per day parking fee on top of room fee. Just be sure to budget that in.

Yep. Said that at 2:26 😊

Thank you!! This was a great review!

[@annafalsone5711]

Hi! We're going to be staying here in July. Do they have airport transportation? I saw that Orlando has MEARS Connect that does airport pickup and drop off at a lot of WDW resorts, including some off site, but Drury isn't included. We were just going to put one of the hotels nearby as a drop off with MEARS.

[@veronicaann6454]

Thank you so much for this video

[@MagicalHijinx]

Thanks for watching!

[@amtoat486]

I am so glad I found this video. Going to Disney in February. I thought it was an off season time and we would get better deals. I was wrong, The Swan is triple the price in February. I was looking for another hotel that also has the early entry to the Disney parks and breakfast buffet for my husband. Thank you for all the detail info. I can’t wait to see this hotel in person.

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’m so glad I was able to help! I have lots of other videos to help you trip plan, especially food videos! I hope you have the best time on your trip!

Awesome resort! Free dinner? That's incredible. I love the view. Lots of caw-fee in this video.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Lol everyone else says it wrong

[@MJ-vq3ws]

Hello, another great video review. This looks like a nice place to stay, I may consider it when I eventually visit Florida again. I'm confused as to why they didn't model the new extension after the original tower, looks a bit odd that way. I'm very impressed with the no resort fee though, quite unheard off for a hotel on property. What is the Drury chain like, and are they part of a larger group like IHG or Hilton? Would you visit again when the old tower reopens, and do you think they'll have more power sockets in the new rooms to give it your seal of approval?

[@MagicalHijinx]

I would love to visit again for the other tower, however the prices have been much higher than when it opened even with a discount. So I’m very disappointed.

[@directordashco]

Ayeee nice hotel, you have me ready to book a trip asap. Thank you for sharing! 😊

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s such a great place! Obsessed with it!

[@Kodachrome40]

I stayed years ago at the tower. Best views of Lake Buena Vista. I’m curious to see the room remodels. The room were kinda small.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Everything is redone! I haven’t seen the new rooms at the old tower but they said they were making it bigger!

I don’t. Sorry!

[@deborahmaddry3615]

Great video. Do you have to pay to park at Disney parks since you already paid to park at hotel?

[@MagicalHijinx]

Yes you should be able to park for free since it is an official hotel! Maybe double check in case something changed, but that’s been the rule.

[@michaelsims7013]

love your preview. Just a couple of things, Prices for the 4 seasons and do the buses to parks carry scooters.

[@MagicalHijinx]

I don’t know the prices it varies on dates and yes it does.

[@AnaheimParkTourist]

Thank you for the thorough resort tour, we really enjoyed it. We are staying at this hotel in August. Did you get a chance to use the bus, if so how was it?

[@MagicalHijinx]

I actually didn’t have a chance, but definitely just plan around the bus schedule and it should be fine!

[@robertbunch7829]

Free breakfast free dinner and no resort fee in Florida I'm dead lol 😆

[@MagicalHijinx]

Right?! It was amazing!

[@gemshems6208]

Seems like a wonderful hotel! Checks a lot of my boxes as well. Thanks for the detailed review! Only thing is the shuttle times & having to go to the transportation center instead. A little annoying if you’re on a scooter.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Absolutely. That’s definitely the issue when you’re staying not an actual Disney resort. At least for 3 out of the 4 parks you’re taken to the gate!

[@areviryyr]

Thanks awesome review do you know if its pet friendly?

[@MagicalHijinx]

Dogs and cats are welcome. Rooms with pets will be charged a daily fee of $40 per room plus tax. Service animals are free of charge. Limit of two pets per room with a combined weight of 80 pounds

[@areviryyr]

@@MagicalHijinx Thank you very much.😊

[@gaylet64]

We stay are Drury's every chance we get ... have for years ... I have their pillows at my home I love them so much HOWEVER I just went to purchase replacements and the price has SKYROCKETED so had to find another choice. With children and grandchildren 🥰usually in tow the free breakfasts, snacks and dinners are a tremendous help! I am so excited there is one near Disney. They do offer a rewards program and it is not too hard to earn points for free stays. I loved this review. I will take my folding side table that I purchased for those rooms that don't have a charging spot on both sides of the bed as I do need to have my phone near me. It's just a little folding camping table and works great. Then I can plug into the outlet under the thermostat.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Sounds like a great plan! I definitely want to join the the rewards program in absolutely obsessed with this hotel!

[@yesidtac7863]

Muy buen vlog

[@MagicalHijinx]

[@ThePandaSupreme]

Good review… you have a weird high standard for outlets for some reason but good video

[@MagicalHijinx]

Well think of it this way, I charge my phone, Magic band, Apple Watch, AirPods, laptop, portable battery, and sometimes other things and I’m just one person. If there are 4 people in the room, you need a lot of outlets.

[@wolfsonryan]

Great review. Do you know if they have handicap accessible rooms and Disney AP holder discounts?

AP - 01:53 ….not sure about accessible rooms

[@mishelele]

I'm thinking about changing my hotel reservation from All Stars Movies to the Drury, mainly because i was counting on the Magical Express free transportation service to/from the airport, but that service doesn't exist anymore. So, as the Drury have the buses taking you to disney i was wondering if it's worth the $90 savings plus the free breakfast. One thing that worries me is the time it would take me to reach the Magic Kingdom main gate in each situation (Drury Bus+monorail/boat vs Disney buses). So, what do you think is the best option for a first time traveler to Disney World who wants to be first in line to enter the parks? Is it worth to change my reservation for a $90 cheaper room and free breakfast?

[@MagicalHijinx]

I don’t want to tell you the wrong thing because it is ultimately up to you. As long as you’re able to make those early buses, then I don’t think you’ll have a problem. Especially because if you are already scheduled for a certain bus, you know that you’re scheduled for that bus versus having to wait on line for buses at all star. You just will have an extra step to go from the transportation and ticket center. The buses are really the only issue because you do have to plan it versus Disney’s constant running buses. It depends on how you want to vacation and how much money you want to spend. I love the All-Stars, but Drury is an incredibly nice hotel, and feels more luxurious plus you get free, breakfast and dinner which is more savings. But the All-Stars is part of the Disney bubble were you are constantly immersed and for magic kingdom you do get taken to the gate. It really just depends on how you want to vacation.

[@mishelele]

@@MagicalHijinx thank you! I actually have seen several videos about the All Star and for me it's not so magical really. That's why I was considering the Drury because it seem more comfortable and I wouldn't have to walk a lot to get to the bus stop. What you said about waiting in line for the bus is interesting for me. I didn't know you had free dinner at the Drury, until what hour you can go grab dinner at the hotel? 🤔

[@deborahmaddry3615]

Since it's an official Disney hotel, do you also have to pay for Disney parks parking? Thanks for video!

[@mishelele]

@@deborahmaddry3615 The Drury Plaza is not a Disney hotel, so you do have to pay $25 per night

[@gaylet64]

Question: Would our Magicbands work at this hotel ... for room entry, etc?

[@MagicalHijinx]

Great question! Unfortunately no. Even though this is an official Disney resort, it’s still a 3rd party hotel. Magic bands will only work at Disney owned resorts.

[@melisaarthur81]

Hi can you explain the Resort fees please, we are from Australia and this is not a common thing for us, and cant seem to find a straight answer on it. We are looking at here or pop century for our stay

[@MagicalHijinx]

So at certain hotels there is the price that you see when booking and then on top of that they add a resort fee that they add on after booking. Usually around $30-35. But at Drury there’s no fee and if you book a regular Disney Resort like Pop Century there is no resort fee and it’s the price you pay at check out! But the other Disney Springs hotels like Holiday Inn or the Swan and Dolphin at the Disney boardwalk, they have a resort fee.

[@melisaarthur81]
