Hiya April - welcome back to
planDisney!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit us again and ask another question for our team of panelists! We love to help Guests just like you plan your own magical Walt Disney World Resort vacations! I'm so excited for your upcoming trip later this year - you'll be visiting during the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration full of exciting new attractions and entertainment, food, and so much more!
You are correct that most retailers and dining locations at
Disney Springs do accept
Disney Gift Cards, but currently, hotels that are not part of the Disney Resorts Collection do not directly accept Disney Gift Cards. If you've got a gift card you'd like to use, I'd recommend using it to book a Disney Resorts Collection stay -
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa is a great option located next to Disney Springs!
There is one other way you may be able to use your gift card to stay at another
Disney Springs Resort Area hotel. If you book a complete vacation
package, including accommodations
and Theme Park Tickets, directly through Disney, you would be able to use your Disney Gift Card.
I hope this information is helpful, and don't forget to check out
all of the benefits of staying in the magic at a Disney Resort.
Let me know if I can help answer any other questions!
Ryan J.
