Walt Disney World's Port Orleans French Quarter
Hello! Guess what? About 2 weeks ago, I figured out that my family, for our next vacation, is going to be staying at Port Orleans French Quarter. I am extremely excited! You see, the last 2 vacations I have been to, I have stayed at the All Star Movies. Those trips were fun. But, this trip will be my first stay at a Moderate Resort. You can obviously tell I'm excited from my signature.
Has anyone stayed here before? |

I stayed there alot when I was younger. My family likedriverside better, but French Quarter is nice. They have a really nice food court, not mention they have a really cool pool. It works out really well with families. If you don't want to deal with the noise at the main pool you can always go to a quiet pool(you basically have the pool to yourself).You can take a boat over to Downtown Disney from your resort. I hope you have a wonderful vacation, and I can't wait to hear about it.

Thank you for letting me know how good the food is! I looked at pictures of the food court online, and I absolutely love the Mardi Gras theme of it. I'm also really excited about the pool; That dragon is the best!
Just a question: If we request a building that is closer to the bus stop/main entrance, will we be charged extra? |

As for have I been there before? I've been to all WDW resorts. French Quarter is my favorite moderate hotel for many reasons. On a relaxful day I'll go in the pool and then the hot tub afterwards. If you are in the parking lot by the bus stop at the time of Illuminations, you can see and hear parts of the show. You can take a boat to Downtown Disney or Port Orleans Riverside which is really relaxing. You can swim at their Ol man Island pool which actually has a better slide than French Quarter in my opinion. It has more turns and is longer than the dragon slide. they both have arcades and river side has entertainment for comedy where as french quarter has a live "jazz type" of guy who plays a variety of songs through instruments almost nightly. If you would like more information just give me a shout or post back here. -Stitchco, your WDW Travel Informer/Guide/Questionaire P.S. - french quarter only has 1 pool. it is Port Orleans Riverside that has qiuet pools.

Me: I asked online, and stitchco said that you don't have to pay extra. Mom: But when we stayed at the All Star Movies, we had to pay extra to stay at a room close to the bus stop. Me: Mom, this guy has been here before, he knows what he's talking about. Mom: But it doesn't make sense. Me: >_< Anyways, thank you! |

If anything, Disney would charge you for a room with a view, not a room near the entrance or bus stop. I'd suggest simply giving Disney a phone-call, explaining the situation (why you want that room) and they SHOULD give you it for no extra charge. Most likely they put people like yourself in rooms like that anyway, so you're only requesting.
We were going to stay at the French Quarter last August for a few nights, ended up going to DAKL instead.. :P

I'm sorry but I was correct and so were they yet all incorrect at the same time.
A Pool view (near the pool room) does cost more at French Quarter however, there are rooms next to the main entrance and not near the pool that they would not charge extra. our family goes there quite often to WDW and french quarter is a place we stay at frequently. when we go to a resort we request a room that we now we can get without charging. -Stitchco
