Hi Sarah,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us a question!
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort - Riverside is such an incredible place to stay during a visit to Walt Disney World Resort, precisely because there is so much to see and do at that Disney Resort Hotel. I’ve spent days roaming the grounds of Alligator Bayou, admiring the beauty of the mansions in Magnolia Bend and lazing the day away at the pool on Ol’ Man Island.
If memory serves, although this Resort is definitely sprawling, it never took me more than 10 minutes to get from my hotel room to any part of the resort, including the
Riverside Mill Food Court. If proximity to the food court is important to you, be sure to make that request when you do
Online Check In for your upcoming stay. Based on my experience, one of the possible requests is to have a room located near the main building, where the food court is located.
Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions. We’re always happy to help!
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
