Should YOU Stay at Disney World's Port Orleans Riverside?

[@lzee6875]

I have stayed at so many different hotels on Disney properties over the years, from value to all deluxe. Riverside is by far our families number one resort. Yee Haw Bob is one of the biggest draws. We do not normally spend a lot of time at our resorts so we book just the amount of days we will be using the parks. When we stay at POR I book for two weeks with 10 days of park tickets. That gives us four days at our resort that we love. Always my number one choice.🎉❤🇨🇦🍁👩‍🦽

[@TheApprenticeGames]

what do u do for work to afford this?😅

[@parkerdavis462]

I agree 💯!! Planning my 3rd stay at PORiverside (10 other Disney property stays total). This time however I’m going Solo for the first time! Treating myself to 8 days, 4 park days, celebrating 10 yrs cancer free! No comprising or bickering with siblings, fussy children or over heated moody partners LoL 😊 Gonna Eat, Drink, Play & Be Merry, can’t wait! Thanks for the great video!!

[@lzee6875]

@@parkerdavis462 congrats on kicking that cancers butt. Have an amazing time at Disney, I'm envious.

[@Tinable]

I'm staying here for 5 days in November. I am so happy you have these videos available for us. So much great info. Love DFBGuide.

[@allanrl6319]

We stayed at Coronado this year and are planning our next trip. We loved Coronado and are trying to decide if we should stick to that one again or try port orleans riverside now.

[@Mrtfarrugia]

This was the first resort my wife and I stayed at when we went to Disney.

[@wdwexploreandchill]

Absolutely, positively YES! Port Orleans is my go to comfort spot… beautiful sprawling walks, great live music at Scat Cat Lounge in French Quarter, and those beignets!!! I love the savory trio of beignet and dipping sauces in the lounge Much better than those specialty and regular ones sold in the cafe. Have a great Friday, y’all! 🎩🥂🖤

[@jodicrumbley604]

I stayed at Riverside in a Royal room by myself with the river view on the 1st floor, and I could not have been happier!! I stayed for 6 nights and transferred to another moderate resort, and I wish I would've stayed at Riverside. Not one complaint. I studied this channel before my trip (lol) and had the best vacation I could've ever planned. Hands down, Disney did it right and going for my birthday was phenomenal. Thank you for this channel! ❤️💃🦋

[@tabithabresnahan2605]

This resort is the ONLY reason I was able to get my husband back to Disney! We aren't people who do well with crowds. Being outside, and in the quiet is always our preference. Riverside gave us that. When we were completely worn out from all the people in the parks, Riverside was incredibly relaxing to come back to. My kids enjoyed looking for lizards, and riding the boats. And we could even see the nightly fireworks from the right spots!

[@speechlessindisney2710]

We love this resort. This is home!!!! ❤ Christmas can't come fast enough

[@tinag4262]

We've stayed here 7-8 times in Sept. each time in the "mansion" buildings (Magnolia Bend) one time in a Royal Room ... beautiful. Quiet and sprawling property. Great place for guests who would enjoy a serene morning jog. There are some adjoining rooms available in Magnolia Bend ... perfect for our family of seven. We love Port Orleans Riverside ❤

[@TheTraderStan]

We got upgraded to a suite room when there a few years ago for no extra charge. The cast member at the front desk just kind of did it because our initial room wasn't ready lol. It was an amazing room

[@KBRITTANYTV]

I love the energy of this channel. It just keeps me excited to get back to Disney even though we just recently went twice in the last year and have another trip planned for this holiday season. I've gotten to the point of watching your videos everyday and it just keeps me happy and learning how to have a better trip next time. Thank you for all you do as your passion really shines through.

[@travelertrome8449]

Just returned from a 10 day vacation to WDW and this is where we stayed. We absolutely loved it. The scenery was so beautiful and peaceful. The food court had lots of variety to choose from. And the rooms were very nice, spacious, and the beds were comfy. The bus system was easy and convenient. My only gripe was the lack of Port Orleans Riverside merch in the gift shop. Not bad if that is the only gripe! I would recommend this place to family and friends 10 out of 10 times!

[@roccofilippi1418]

Staying there right now..

[@lzee6875]

I am so jealous 😢. Have a great time and say Hi to Yee Haw Bob from his Sarnia family.

[@elisahan3287]

How is it?

[@roccofilippi1418]

That was a year ago but we loved it. Going back in 4 years and that is where we will stay!@@elisahan3287

[@LauraPeregrine]

My mom and I stayed there (Alligator Bayou) many tears ago. She needed a wheelchair for mobility and the room worked very well. When we traveled, I would build in extra rest times for her. One afternoon she napped and I sat out on a bench by the river and read. Very relaxing. We ate at Boatwright’s several times. Dinner was OK but for breakfast they had the amazingly good sweet potato pancakes.

[@ginapecci8680]

I hate that there are no comforters any more.. went twice last year and each stay - each hotel... Just the bed sheets.. I have finally wised up and brought a blanket for each bed.. Nice fluffy and big enough for each bed.... thank god I drive up instead of flying.. okay anyway... THIS hotel is super cute love the boat too nice alternative to going to Disney Springs (Forever I will call Downtown Disney I am sorry) --- we love the lazy vibe of this property!! @Disney please bring back DAILY maid service

[@joannefowler391]

AJ, thank you for the fantastic overview! Our first Disney trip (2012) we stayed at AoA with our 5 & 7 year olds plus grandparents. It was fun but, wow so many people. No escape from all the action. 2015 just the four of us stayed at Riverside in a 5th room sleeper. Such tranquility. Kids loved the pool, it was nice to go to Disney Springs for many dining options. We returned in 2019 and it will always be our go-to resort (unless we win big in the lottery and then it will be Polynesian but even then I wonder if we would tire of all the people there).

[@redvelvet1508]

DFB is my only source to everything Disney.

[@katiewright2232]

Stayed in Port Orleans Riverside a few years ago and loved it! it is a very peaceful, old south style environment in lush surroundings. Once we got used to utilizing the bus service, that was no problem at all (although we did not have children with us). We found that the food really was not optimal most of the resorts, but there are so many other choices on Disney property!

[@kylekampling3007]

PO Riverside is a great place to stay if you’re doing a quiet laid back adult’s only trip. It’s very peaceful with incredible scenery. The boat rides to Disney Springs are a big perk. The multiple bus stops shorten walks (we never had any trouble with waits). And the YeeHaw Bob show might have been the most fun we had during our trip…no kidding! We had a blast.

[@lzee6875]

Yee Haw Bob is The biggest reason we return here,and that says a lot as we adore everything about this property 😍

[@FLrebel64]

It was good to see Port Orleans, Alligator Bayou, and Magnolia Bend again! I never stayed there, but I did work on the construction crew building the first phase back in late 1990 to early 1992. I remember when Disney purchased an 100yr Old Oak Tree for Ol Man Island. Disney paid $3M from the original owner and hired specialists to dig up, transport and replant the old tree on Ol Man Island near the swimming pool. I didn't see it in the video there. I wondered if it had survived!

[@FICOYFF]

It’s still there!

[@PompdUpFishin]

Wow that’s NUTS! Very cool fact to know! Thanks for that!

[@Sadonproductions]

I disagree with a lot of comments I really feel like they need to upgrade riverside and the french quarter!! N.O has so much extraordinary culture to sample from that It seems kind of dull when you compare it other resorts like the Polynesian that fully encompassed Pacific islander culture. They’re opening a Tiana’s place in Disneyland they absolutely need to bring it here to Port Orleans along with other details from The princess in the frog movie

[@Kristinloveee]

Ive been saying the same for years!! The rooms are so basic

[@Rosegoldy]

Yesss!!!! First time we went I was expecting so much more in terms of live entertainment and shows! (Also was expecting Samoan fire knife dances at Polynesian villas)

[@halfas05]

My wife, daughter, and I stayed here last month for a few nights and it was amazing. We loved everything that came with it. The proximity to French Quarter was great too. We did the horse carriage ride during sunset and it was such a great experience.

[@jsu5800n]

Loved Riverside! I’ve stayed at Grand Floridian and Contemporary, and I think I liked Riverside the best.

[@netty1221]

For real?? I’ve stayed at POFQ for 8 nights I loved it! I just booked contemporary and 3 nights here royal room for fall im so excited!!!!!

This is my favorite hotel-even better than the French Quarter. Lovely architecture and rooms, beautiful surroundings, great ambiance and food. The whole family really enjoys spending time on these grounds.

[@gbear0385]

I stayed at the royal suites in Ianuary and my god is it beautiful at night kind of like a quiet country side that looks amazing

[@sarahisgroovy]

I worked at Riverside and French Quarter while in the DCP allll the way back in 2014! While I love both resorts, I enjoyed having the opportunity to walk through the luscious gardens and landscaping of Riverside. The resort is amazing and I’d absolutely stay as a guest. Thanks for covering one of my favorite Disney resorts (please do more)!

Also you can walk to Port Orleans for beignets 😍

[@meggiechick63]

Love this resort I miss Disney I need to go back haha

[@birbluv9595]

I love Port Orleans Riverside Alligator Bayou. It suits my outdoorsy, no-fuss personality with minimal IP. So it’s super-relaxing, an escape from the high-stimulation parks, with absolutely beautiful walks and vegetation. I’ve stayed there only as a solo older adult and always felt safe walking back from the bus stop in the dark. Being able to walk easily to POFQ is a real plus, and the boat to Disney Springs is really nice. But now that I’ve reached a certain point of age-related limitations, I’ve got to be able to return to my resort mid-day, and buses/bus stops or even ride share chew up way too much time. For this reason, I’ve now got to stay in a Deluxe resort very close to the parks.

[@TheWuffball]

Defenitly my go to hotel, for the busses, if you stay in the bayou, you walk to the west stop (last one and probably standing up) in the morning and you get off at the south at night (first stop) so i never felt like trasportation was an issue

[@dontbedumb7027]

Great video! I love Tiana and it would be a dream to stay in a Princess and the frog's themed room. Is this the only resort that has Tiana as an inspiration? Thanks ❤

[@lugamaro]

@@michellec5407 Yeah! I love her and her story. I was going through some rough times when the movie came out. I lost count of how many times I've watched it 🙈 I wish there were more Tiana inspired things in Disney parks, especially Disney World 💕

[@luma4902]

​@@michellec5407 i mean the other classic princesses dont have themed rooms outside this hotel in disneyworld too just ariel in art of animation( and it is more of a under the sea than a princess style room) and the cinderella suite (if you count it since people cant stay there). Which honestly i think is a shame and missed opportunity. Tiana will get a ride, a restaurant and a sequel series with bayou adventure so i think she is getting things. Rapunzel is from around the same time has the hair swinging novelty that could easily fit a well themed ride and only got a themed bathroom and some wall paintings in walt disney world. I wish each princess got at least a themed room in the disneyworld hotels

[@m.mickeypayne9811]

I stayed there when it was a value resort & called " Dixie Landings " . The restaurant was great, the bed frames were country aka fort wilderness style for the cheapest rooms. $69 The high end choices were more " Gone with the Wind " style. At these prices, never again.

Great resort another plus is it's across from the pet resort easy to stop in and check on furry friends.

I would stay just for the shrimp and grits at this resort lol.

[@esthermunn8036]

We have stayed there 2x and now prefer it over Caribbean and AOA. You really feel like you can relax because doesn’t feel as crowded as others. The pools by our building, we called our neighborhood pool, was perfect for cooling off and hanging out while doing laundry. We also have a teenager that could take the boat to DS and without worry.

[@BeammeupSpotty]

no, i won't stay here again. First the boat wasn't running bc the water was low. I didn't like the aggressive room checks two days in a row (while i was sleeping with a do not disturb sign on the door) and then being told by the maid that she/they can enter the room any time. Apparently, it has to do with human trafficking and security checks, but i didn't like it, and I doubt they do "security checks" at the high end resorts??? the food court was total disarray, even with a smallish crowd (I can't imagine what it would be like during the busy season???). Guest check in was slow (as if they hadn't been doing this for years). i was sorely disappointed and left for home early. I had a similar experience with the aggressive maid staff at the Coronada Springs resort a few years ago. I was in the old area (not the new tower). yikes. My days of disney are behind me....and while the hotel manager said to send him a note with complaints, which i did, I never heard from him. And, when i tried to call the front desk to complain, my call went to an off-site call center, not the hotel itself. boo disney.

[@dgriffin6074]

Your inferred that older folks would prefer a hotel like Riverside (I agree) reminded me that a couple of decades ago, ocean cruising was often said to be "for the newly wed and nearly dead". Times have changed.

Always trifling to me how disney has the nerve to charge $400/ni for a motel room

[@tpg5974]

In 2017 my family stayed at POFQ primarily for the compact size, easy one stop bus-to-parks option and the boat to Disney Springs. I think we paid around $217 a night for a standard view room. If you are going to WDW for the parks, why pay so much for a room you will be spending little time in?

[@kaywhite6195]

Awesome video. I recently changed my room from the little mermaid art of animation to royal rooms. A cast member suggested it. I Have a good feeling I made the right decision. I’m taking my nieces for a first time Disney Trip at the end of June. Both big princess fans.

[@veromikes]

The grounds are beautiful but the actual resort is an overpriced motel. Stay at a deluxe and save yourself some grief.

[@Adam-gm6of]

I REALLY WANT TO STAY IN THE ROYAL ROOMS, I like the Disney Princess more then Mickey. In fact I don't like Mickey. I know I'm weird, LOVE DISNEY but not a fan of the mouse. But the only down side is the transportation. But I might bite the bullet just because how bad I want to stay in the Royal Room.

[@sactuba]

My name is Steve, from Sacramento , California. 2022 stayed at POR just great ! Large resort and not the feeling of crowds. We were there 10 days. Easy to get to the parks via WDW bus system and lazy boat ride to DS. In the past have stay at All Stars , Old Key West , Contempory. Will be there Nov 27 -Dec 5 this year, our 9th trip to WDW. Staying at WDW Resort is the way to go ! Our trips are ALWAYS between mid October and Mid December. For us, best place to stay.

[@jimbo0715]

glad I watched this - I bit the bullet and booked Riverside for my birthday - I need a ground floor - I CANNOT do stairs and found out they cannot guarantee me a GF room - with no elevator - this is a huge gamble I am not willing to take. I am an All Star girl and have always gotten ground floor there when requested and my plan B is they have elevators.

[@johntaphouse5235]

for 300-400 bucks a night anywhere other than a theme park i would expect 5 star luxury, butler service, massage in the room, all the bells and whistles.. at disney for that price lol yeah, nope, you get some place dry to lay your head and be refreshed for the many hours your about to stand in line for rides and over priced food

[@davidhalley9795]

Wow! Ten years makes a big difference. My first time back in 2013 as an adult I stayed Port Orleans. It wasn’t even $200 per night then (October when school is in). It wasn’t great (just not my cup of tea) so I tried the Coronado the next year and was hooked, even before the tower. I just recommend, unless you’re handicapped, reserve the second floor (for most resorts) because I’ve had too many critters follow me into our room.

[@RR-fg2rl]

Stayed there in Jan 22 for 2 nights then 1 at grand floridian loved it though it was my friends first time at Disney and we were there to do Hollywood and epcot 1st day then at floridian magic kingdom. Took riverboat to Disney springs to get prime rib cos restaurant was fully booked and loved the travel. We both loved mickey waffles. She just doesn't like carrying luggage upstairs it's my only complaint. Would have loved to use pool but no time

[@danielvandersall6756]

Think I still prefer French Quarter. Smaller. Both are very beautiful though, and fairly (for Disney) inexpensive rooms.

I was confused. When my family stayed there, it was Dixie Landings. The good ole days - 30 years ago.

[@marissakoch1216]

Staying there for the 1st time in Aug altho it’s only for one day I’m excited haha. When I take a legit trip to disney that’s at least a few days I always get a value bc it’s all I can afford if im staying there for a bit plus getting disney tix. But me and my sis have a cruise so we’re flying in a day early and decided to do a stay! And I thought, since were only paying for a night and all we’re doing is a hotel stay we need a lil upgrade 😂 seems perf bc the pool bar seems nice, you can walk and see the French quarter/get beignets, and take a boat to disney springs so honestly seems like a perf hotel for just a quick resort stay 😊

Talk about timing. I booked our holiday to Riverside the same day this video came out. We planned on going in 2020 but had to cancel because of covid. After that, I never thought we would be able to afford to go back. We've stayed in FQ three times (which includes our honeymoon) and Carribean once, so this will be the first time staying at Riverside. I'm so excited I'm counting down the days. 479 days to go.

[@breezywithkids]

Nooooo it sucks!!!!! we only stayed here for one night at the end of our vacation at art of animation, and I was complaining that I wanted to go back to art of animation even though we had the royal room there it was horrible and someone overheard me saying how badly I wanted to go back to art of animation, and they agreed with me!!!! 😂 sorry Disney this is a fail but your art of animation family rooms are the best hotel on property! Not a lot of walking and you feel like you are actually at Disney the kids and adults love it! The boat ride to Disney Springs is OK but it takes anywhere from one hour to two hours!!! it was not fun with kids

[@brookehighsmith3104]

I prefer POR to the French Quarter because those big plastic statues give me the creeps. I have stayed at both Magnolia Bend and Alligator Bayou. This is a beautiful resort! YeeHaw Bob is not to be missed! I have to say, that on my last visit, the meal at Boatwright's was my favorite of our entire stay. The jambalaya is fabulous! We're heading back in June for a split stay at the Poly and POR. Thinking that this time we might invest in a carriage ride around the beautiful grounds.

We stayed at Port Orleans Riverside in January 2022 and loved it. I loved it more than I thought I would. It's beautiful and peaceful and taking the boat to Disney Springs was a fun change of pace. It does take a bit longer riding the bus with so many stops, but we actually got to rope drop Disney Hollywood Studios so we could snag a great spot in line for Rise of the Resistance.

I have stayed at Port Orleans Riverside in the Alligator Bayou 10 times over the years. The first time I was there it was Dixie Landings. Love the casual vibe, the option of the quiet pools and the relaxing riverboat ride to Disney Springs. The food court is so spacious, you can always find a seat. When I arrive, I feel like I’m home and I already know how to get everywhere. My family has spent some of its best nights in the lounge being thoroughly entertained by YeeHaw Bob!

[@justinbarhorst5531]

I wish I stayed there the last time I stayed at Disney the last time I was there. The French Quarter had very cold water every day I took a shower yes I told someone at the front desk nothing happened. Now when I was at port new Orleans Riverside they where very friendly and very helpful made me wish I stayed there instead. Heck I seen one cast member from New Orleans Riverside many times around the park she was very helpful. Shure wish I stayed there with staff like that. Now French Quarter they where not as helpful the room had very cold water and the week I stayed there I never had a hot or warm shower shure wish they where as friendly as Riverside. If I could have done it all over again would have stayed at Riverside.
