Why It’s a BAD Idea To Stay at These Disney World Hotels in January

By Leave a Comment

Not all Disney World hotels are created equal. Some have exclusive perks and advantages that aren’t available at other resorts!

Disney’s Riviera Resort

One of the best perks in our opinion is unique and fast transportation options. Why take a bus when you could hop on the Monorail, walk, or ride the Skyliner to the parks? The Disney Skyliner is a gondola system that we love to use to ride to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. There are only a few hotels that are part of the Skyliner system, but soon those resorts will temporarily lose that perk as the Skyliner closes for refurbishments!
