Disney's BoardWalk Inn

Walt Disney World, Orlando

Virgin rating

The hotel

This magical waterfront property will take you back to 1930s America with its mix of buildings steeped in old-fashioned charm. It’s smack, bang in the middle of the lively BoardWalk with picturesque views of the harbour and plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to explore. Kids will adore the swimming pool complex with its 61-metre water slide and white-sand beach, while adults can enjoy a leisurely swim in the quiet pool. It’s particularly fun to stay at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn as the whole area comes alive at night when duelling pianos get to work to the delight of the crowds, and everyone gets into the holiday mood. It’s dead easy to get to Epcot on the water taxi or by foot, and the restaurants of Disney’s Yacht Club and Disney’s Beach Club Resorts are close by for dining variety.

We've visited Disney's Boardwalk many times, it's definitely one of our very favorite resorts in Disney, but this time it was extra special. We try to stay at least one or 2 nights club level when we go, and this last trip was simply amazing. When we checked in we told Stephanie and Cathy in the club concierge area that it was our daughter's birthday, I asked them to charge me for balloons in the room. Instead, they went above and beyond to make Aubree's 10th birthday awesome. I wanted to give a shout out here to them to thank them again for everything they did for us. The boardwalk club lounge is the best on property. The food selection is a little better than most, but really it's the staff that goes the extra mile to ensure the best experience while you're there. Lorenzo and the staff are all so attentive and friendly and they always remember us when we return. Matthew the manager does a great job conversing with guests and attending to requests. The entire staff of cast members in concierge is just awesome. If you visit, you'll have to keep an eye out for the Fonz=) If you know, you know. See you next time Boardwalk crew! Read less

Gorgeous and Stunning! Love the little balcony, the quiet room and how clean the room was. The room we got was remodeled with the most beautiful Disney accents and animation but very elegant and pleasing to the eye. We can’t say enough about this gorgeous resort. Walking distance to Epcot or Hollywood Studios or take the skyliner or the friendship boats. We could see partial fireworks from our balcony 🤩Judy at the front desk was so kind and got us into our room right away! Highly recommended! Read less

Always awesome, always welcoming, always pricey, but renovated rooms are great! The Boardwalk Inn is an absolutely great place to stay and the staff and rooms are tops, always, loved loved loved the stay here. If you can book it, right off the boardwalk and night shows are great with a short walk to Epcot and Hollywood Studios its perfect.

One of the best Disney resorts I’ve stayed at. Rooms are impeccable and perfect. Only one complaint : the chairs on the balcony are painfully uncomfortable. They are pointless. Disney, you can do better!! One other tip - resort is very large and can be hard to navigate. Do yourself a favour and take a little tour when you get there to orient… Read more

Disney, you can do better!! One other tip - resort is very large and can be hard to navigate. Do yourself a favour and take a little tour when you get there to orient yourself. We accidentally found the quiet pool on our first day and then took 30 minutes when we were really looking! Read less

Minus points for late opening of coffee - you cannot make coffee in the room with sleeping kids, would've really appreciated just simple pot in the lobby for us jetlagged adults.
