Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Tour | Is it Disney World's Best Hotel? Complete Guide

preview_player
Показать описание
On June 28th, 1988, Walt Disney World opened its signature resort The Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. With exterior architecture meant to resemble San Diego, California's famed Hotel Del Coronado and interior decor reminiscent of Victorian Era England; the Grand Floridian was designed to be the icon of Walt Disney World's Resort Hotels. Much like how Cinderella's Castle became synonymous with Magic Kingdom Park, the Grand Floridian was to be the beacon that called out to guests and commercialize the magic that can only be felt if staying on Walt Disney World property.

Out of the 26 on-site resorts Disney offers, the Grand Floridian is the most expensive and most sought after. Due to this, a stay here has always eluded us. We've been privileged to have stayed at nine different Walt Disney World Resorts prior to this and thanks to our friends & channel members, Dominic and Jenni, we were able to make the Grand Floridian our tenth.

This video documents our entire stay. We go over the grounds, room, pools, dining, cuisine, arcade, gym, transportation and everything included in a stay at Walt Disney World's fanciest resort. At the end, we name our top 5 BEST Walt Disney World resort hotels and helpful tips for a stay at the Most Magical Place on Earth's most expensive property.

I remember going there as a kid in the 90s and they had little birds in the big bird cage in the lobby. We stayed there for the 50th anniversary of WDW (unexpected upgrade because the hotel I had booked had not reopened post-COVID) and, while the room (pre-update) didn’t impress us, Grand Flo’s common spaces are classy and comfortable. Nice comprehensive overview guys!

Great video, as always. Although the pianist in the lobby is nice, I really miss the orchestra that used to perform nightly on the balcony near Enchanted Rose that you pointed out. If Grand Floidian ever offers an extremely aggressive discount, I'll definitely book a stay there.

Hi TPF's! Thanks for another fantastic video. This resort is so beautiful. I feel like my favorite will always be the Polynesian, but they are all so nice I hope you guys are safe and doing well in Central Florida. This time of year is always kinda scary. Take care of each other and Frank ❤

I’m so glad you got to stay there!
We splurged last year and added 2 nights at the DVC there to our Saratoga DVC stay and I actually cried when we got there to check in because I never thought
I’d get to stay there. It was great. Since them daughter & son in law joined DVC and grand is there home resort now lol

Love this hotel. It holds a special place in our heart because it is the hotel where we got married. we took all our photos on the second floor in front of the chandelier and we even stayed there, upgraded us to the grand tower, monorail view and told it was John Stamos favorite room.

I remember your Polynesian trip because we were also there. and looking for apartments when you guys were there. It is also where we told you that Christina was pregnant.

Both are amazing hotels that hold a special place in my heart

Hi Sam and Jay!
We absolutely loved this video ❤
Although we have never stayed there, The Grand Floridian has always been our favorite Resort to visit, we love the architecture, the food and the ambiance 🤩
We briefly met you a few months ago, at the lobby, you were buying some snacks for your Easter treats vlog, I was in line to buy a delicious cross bun and you where at the register, we said hi to each other, I just told you we love your channel, I was to shy to introduce myself 😊
Thank you very much for always bringing us along!

Another great video! Y'all give such great detailed info, I love it. From what I understand, when they redid Big Pine Key into DVC resort studios, they modeled it after Mary Poppins Returns, so it's got Jack and 3 kids. I'm staying there in January, can't wait

We are definitely staying at the Grand next January. It has long been one of my favorite resorts.

Glad you got to stay there. Wifey and I have been going to the GF for the last 20+ years at least 2 times a year. We always stay in the Sugar Loaf building, concierge. What a great place to stay. Be back at the GF in Oct for the Food and Wine Fest. Yes, you must do Vic and Al's when you get the chance. We have been there 7 times and loved it every time. Love Narcoosies, Citricos and Enchanted Rose, formally known as Mizners Lounge. We knew all the band members also. RIP to Pat our friend who played the drums for 30 years in Disney. What a wonderful human being. Always enjoy your vids, keep em coming...

I love resort tour videos and once again you did a great job :). The room looks lovely. We had the chance to stay at the GF in 2017 for our DD 21st bday. It ended up being a crazy stay where we were upgraded to main building concierge! Long story ... but a fun one lol. Now for questions? Do you think they will be doing more refurb to the main lobby? Or was it done? It looks very similar to 2017. The rooms are very different obviously. Truly loved the video. Like you, I too have a bucket list of staying at every hotel! I like them all for different reasons. Hard to pick a best :)
