Welcome Foolish Mortal to the Haunted Mansion. I’ll be your host, your ghost host, for the remainder of this conversation. And I can’t wait for you to check in. I’ve heard the mansion has 999 happy haunts, but there’s always room for one more!
The good thing is you’ll probably be visiting with more than a party of one, so we can cross staying at the
Haunted Mansion off our list. I do recommend stopping by for a visit while exploring Magic Kingdom, though. Now, going back to your upgrade, you'll want to give the Walt Disney World reservations
line a call. A Cast Member there will be more than happy to check out any other available
resorts for you. They will also be able to give you a new price estimate and make that switch over for you during your call.
Do you have any idea as to where you’re looking to upgrade to? My upgrade recommendations include the
Grand Floridian for its location to Magic Kingdom and
Animal Kingdom Lodge for the atmosphere. Both resorts have been a hit for our family and an upgrade from our usual stay at Pop Century. The only thing my little ones miss is the Skyliner. But you do get the monorail while staying at the Grand Floridian, so that is a win.
I’m sure whichever resort you choose will be a perfect fit! Overall, I’m pleased with any resort at Walt Disney World. Each resort has its unique offering so I always recommend trying something new. It’s been a family must for our trips. When we can, we like to stay somewhere different because we enjoy experiencing the new and comparing resort offerings to each other. For example, we loved how close the beignets were when staying at the
French Quarter, but then we loved the pool at
Disney’s Caribbean and Beach. Honestly, there are so many fun parts, that it’s hard to choose a favorite resort.
Naomi, I hope this helps answer your question and maybe even opens up your planning to other resorts to take a look at. Don’t forget to pop into
Tower of Terror; I heard the drop-in is thrilling!
Happy Haunts,
Shantel
