How to Choose Your Resort Hotel in Disney's Magic Kingdom

Choosing where to stay at the Magic Kingdom can be a complicated process; there are so many options to choose from, but you can make the best choice based on your budget and prioritizing your needs. Each resort hotel in the Magic Kingdom offers unique furnishings, themes, and opportunities to embrace the Disney experience without even setting foot in the theme park. The Magic Kingdom is a great spot to set up camp because you'll have some of the prime picks of views of the Disney parks from most of the hotel floors. From the Caribbean Beach Resort to Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, choosing the best fit is easier when you know what to expect.

Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is one of the most popular choices for Magic Kingdom visitors, a spot where you can get access to all of the theme parks via watercraft or monorail. Here you'll be introduced to 867 suites and a quality Concierge service that serve as your personal guide throughout your stay. Concierge services here are part of the deluxe service you'll receive; enjoy the three lounges for relaxation after a busy day, and enjoy gourmet dining at the Grand Floridian Café, Gasparilla Grill, or Citricos restaurant.

The Villas At Disney's Wilderness Lodge are another great option for the frequent Disney traveler. Here you can book a studio or apartment-style area and relax in this Disney Vacation Club resort area. Each unit is outfitted with a wet bar, refrigerator, and kitchenette; it's easy to make and prepare all your meals, and you'll have complete access to the on-site health club for a change of pace in daily activities!

At the Shades of Green on Walt Disney Resort, you'll find a countryside-themed atmosphere in this casual and relaxed setting. The resort is filled with gardens, golf courses, lounges, and full-service dining on site. The nine-hole golf course is within walking distance, and the guest services department will happily escort you to any area of the resort for your busy schedule.
