No title - expert review The banks of Disneys re-created Sassagoula River provide a lazy, Deep South setting for the moderately priced Port Orleans Riverside Resort, remarkably reminiscent of a Southern bayou mansion. The guest rooms are rustic with birch furniture, attractive light fixtures, and stone accents in the bathro... mobiltravelguide.howstuffworks.com
No title - expert review Disney's Imagineers drew inspiration from the Old South for this sprawling resort. Buildings look like plantation-style mansions and rustic bayou dwellings. Rooms accommodate up to four in two double beds. Elegantly decorated, they have wooden armoires, quilted bedspreads, and gleaming brass faucets... fodors.com
No title - expert review Formerly known as Dixie Landings, Disney s Port Orleans Resort Riverside captures the look and feel of the Mississippi Bayou and the Old South. The resort s buildings resemble old plantation mansions in Magnolia Bend and smaller, more rustic lodges in the Alligator Bayou area. Like its French Quarte... gayot.com

Simply Perfect! - user review Port Orleans Riverside is dynamite. We stayed at the lodges and it was fabulous. The room was spotless and very large. The view from our large corner windows included ducks, rabbits, and nature itself. Beautiful! There is so much to do there we never even went to a theme park. Go to Muddy Rivers for... orlando.citysearch.com
Great spot - user review Very peaceful property that's not quite as flashy as other resorts (such as All Stars, or Caribbean Beach Resort). There's a lot to do at Riverside, including visiting it's sister property, Port Orleans. Don't miss the free boat ride that runs from the resort to Downtown Disney. It's a nice treat an... orlando.citysearch.com
Very Nice - user review Disney and all of its employees at the hotel and parks went out of their way to make up for the fact that the park tickets we ordered and that were supposed to arrive at our hotel never arrived. They did this even though they weren't the company that caused the issue. I can't wait to go back. .Order... expedia.com

cant wait to go back - user review I loved the hotel. There was many things to do there. My only problem was that we spent so much time in Disney that we didn't get to spend enough time at the hotel to enjoy all that there was to do there. When I go back, I am going to stay for a longer time that way I ... expedia.com
Moderate priced Disney property hotel - user review I picked Port Orleans Riverside to be away from the crowds but within property. From other critiques I chose the Alligator Bayou side for the remoteness (however the Mansion side looked very pretty). My husband and I enjoyed our stay and particularly liked the ferry boat service from Port Orleans to... expedia.com

Beautiful grounds, but very average rooms - user review I'm sure this beats Disney's value resorts, but after staying the past 2 years in their deluxe hotels, I would say the moderate hotel is very average. Not bad if you don't mind A LOT of walking to your room from the main entrance. The sheets are cleaned only every four nights. The pools are okay. .I... expedia.com

Great place to relax - user review Just came back from a 4 day stay at Port Orleans Riverside. Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Theme park in the morning then back to the pool at the hotel to refresh, then back to the parks for the evening. The resort grounds are a tranquil oasis in the craziness that can be Disney. The food court is... expedia.com
great hotel - user review Just returned from a trip to walt disney world, and stayed at Port Orleans riverside. The beds were excellent even better than my pillow top matress at home! As a frequent traveler, I am used to hotel rooms, but was impressed with the details of the hotel high beds, double sinks and a curtain to pul... expedia.com
One of the best Disney resorts - user review Our stay at the Port Orleans was excellent. The entire facility was well kept with very courteous staff. The pool area is excellent with a fishing area and boat rental close by. There is plenty to do and stay on site for several days. The food was typical Disney but well worth eating there for break... expedia.com
Not worth the money - user review Plus: Comfortable, Clean, good natural setting Minus: Expensive: When you can get a hotel just few miles away for 1/5th price, the service doesn't justify it. Inconvenient: The much touted Disney bus service did n't help much as the walk from the room to the bus was 15 min. (think of carrying a 6 ye... expedia.com
Handy, convenient - user review Port Orleans Riverside is a nice hotel and a good value. On the negative side, the rooms can be cramped for a family, and we had to stand in a long line to check in. The Magical Express did not work for us for some reason (we still recieved free shuttle service to and from the airport), but others w... expedia.com
Good Hotel Great Surroundings - user review Rooms were nice, but seemed like housekeeping wasn't the best during our stay. The scenic surroundings were beautiful with the view of the river right in front of our hotel. Be prepared to do some walking. Great excercise. Enjoyed the Riverside and would definately go back to that hotel because it i... expedia.com

Family friendly, and still quiet - user review The hotel was very nicely maintained and the staff was pleasant and helpful without exception. There are many pools, all heated, so you don't have to walk far to the main pool area if you don't want to. The food court was undergoing renovations, but the hotel still made an effort to have a limited b... expedia.com
Convenient but crowded - user review The property is nice looking but overcrowded. The pools, the bus to the park, the lines for food at the food court. I couldn't justify waiting in line so long for bland sandwhiches or tasteless pizza and paying a fortune for them. Another problem was we arrived at 3pm for checkin and our room wasn't... expedia.com
Another wonderful Port Orleans Experience - user review This was our second time at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside and once again we were very pleased. The staff was friendly and helpful and after a long day we'd always come back to a clean room with little added touches.

Typical Disney Theme hotel - user review We found this was a nice resort, which was reflected very well on their website so no big suprises. Grounds very groomed, rooms nothing special but ok, only at the food court big dining room where a lot of choice. As with all Disney hotels, everything overpriced. Staff pleasant. Found useful to go t... expedia.com

Disney thinks of everything!! - user review We were very impressed with the quality of the surroundings, rooms, grounds, cast members(as they call the employees).

not impressed - user review we expected more from a walt disney world resort. this was the only lodging choice on disney property that could accommodate a family of 5 with 3 children under age 11. Having 2 adjoining rooms with small children was not an option, and the available suites were over $3000 for the week (not includin... fodors.com
