Hey Howdy Hey Saloni and welcome to planDisney!
As a
Good Neighbor hotel status, Double Tree Suites by Hilton Orlando is a great location to choose to stay for your trip to Walt Disney World Resort! There are so many benefits to staying in a Good Neighbor hotel with one of the big ones being proximity to the parks! So close to convenient transportation options you are sure to spend more time enjoying your trip and less time with transportation! I am happy to share that the benefits do not stop there. Let's jump in to see what benefits you do have when it comes to times in the parks.
One great perk to staying at a
Disney Resort Collection hotel and some of the Good Neighbor resorts is the availability of
Early Theme Park Entry. With this perk, you can get into the parks 30 minutes before the general public and is a great way to get a few attractions done with very minimal wait times. I am happy to share that Double Tree Suites by Hilton Orland does qualify for this benefit as listed on Disney's site!
On the other side of your day, Disney does offer
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours for some Guests. This, unfortunately, is available only for those Guests listed staying at Disney Deluxe Resorts, or Disney Deluxe Villas.
You will still have so much time in the parks on your next trip by taking advantage of the Early Theme Park Entry, I wanted to share a few tips while you are still planning your park days. I would make sure to look into
Disney Genie+ for your park days as well. With Genie+ you have access to your own personal Genie that can unlock Lightning Lane access to certain attractions in the parks. This can ensure you have a general arrival window and minimal wait times to spend more time enjoying your time in the park and less time waiting in lines.
One of the newest attractions,
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT is an absolute must-do for the park! This attraction operates with the
My Disney Experience app in which you can either try to get a virtual queue return time or purchase Individual Lightning Lane for. At this attraction, you cannot wait in a traditional stand-by line. With the virtual queue, at 7:00 a.m. EST or 1:00 p.m EST, you will be able to get onto your My Disney Experience app and the three horizontal lines on the bottom right of your screen will bring up a menu where you will see a tile for "Virtual Queue". This will be your way to get in a virtual line for the attraction during your time in EPCOT.
Best of luck with your continued planning for your trip coming up real soon! If you have any further questions please feel free to reach out, we would be happy to help!
Happy Planning,
Nick
