What if we told you that you could go in a room at one of Disney World’s fanciest hotels without spending a dime? Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is a Deluxe hotel that’s known for its iconic red roofs and Victorian-style inspired by Palm Beach’s golden era.
Grand Floridian
It’s home to some excellent dining, beautiful views, and a lovely spa (that just reopened, BTW!). You can also walk from the hotel right to Magic Kingdom! The Grand Floridian is one of Disney World’s most iconic hotels, so if you’ve ever wanted to see the inside of the guest rooms, you’re in luck, cause we’re here to give you a FULL room tour!
First, let’s kick things off by quickly showing you some of the hotel. The grounds are beautiful, with fun pools…
Grand Floridian Pool
…and even a view of Seven Seas Lagoon!
Grand Floridian Resort
The hotel is known for being very fancy — the lobby alone can make you feel like royalty.
Grand Floridian Lobby
There are several restaurants here, like Citricos and the Grand Floridian Cafe. It’s also where you can find the most exclusive (and expensive) restaurant on property — Victoria & Albert’s (which finally reopens July 28, 2022!).
Citricos
There is also a relatively new bar in the Grand Floridian called the Enchanted Rose. It’s themed to Beauty & the Beast with 4 different rooms for you to enjoy.
Enchanted Rose Bar Area
Okay, now that we’ve seen some of the hotel, let’s go inside a guest room! We stayed in an Outer Building Garden View Room which can sleep up to 5 adults and has a view of either the courtyard, marina, or pool areas. Here’s a look at the entrance to the room.
Let’s go!
You’ll find the light switches right next to the front door on your left when you walk in.

Then, on your right, you’ll see the closet!
Closet
Inside here you can find the safe and a hairdryer…
Keep all your valuables inside!
…bathrobes…
Want a robe?
…an extra pillow/blanket…
Extra extra
…hangers…
Hang up your Spirit Jerseys!
…an iron…
Don’t want wrinkles all over your park clothes
…and an ironing board and a luggage rack.
This little closet holds a lot!
Look up, and you’ll see a beautiful light fixture.
oooo…aaahhhh…
Then, over on your left is the bathroom! There is a bathroom counter with double sinks…
So you don’t have to share!
…as well as your standard tissues…
In case you’re feeling sneezy
…hand towel…
Hand towel
…and a magnifying mirror.
To get REALLY close!
You will also find an array of Disney Resorts H2O+ bath products like mouthwash, shampoo, and body wash.
We love this stuff
Behind you, there is a hamper as well as more towels on the towel racks.
Keep all your dirty clothes over here
And, if you look up, you’ll see some Alice in Wonderland artwork!
Through the looking glass
The toilet and shower area have a separate door to them that includes a full body mirror on the outside (which is vital in a hotel room!).
Gotta be able to see the full outfit
Above the toilet, you will see another towel rack with extra towels, washcloths, and toilet paper.
More more more
The shower has a bathtub in it as well, and even more H2O+ products.
Have a soak in the tub after a long day walking around the parks
And, here’s a look at the showerhead.

Now, let’s finally move into the actual room! Here it is, folks!
Our room!
Our room had two queen beds in it with white linens and padded headboards.
Lovely
Over both beds, you’ll see two small lamps.
In case you need some more lighting
In between the two beds, you can find a nightstand that will have the phone on it as well as the remote.
And some more drawers!
And next to the bed near the wall, there is some nice artwork of some swans swimming in front of the hotel.

Next to the picture is where you can find the thermostat.
One of the most important things in the room!
Across from the beds is the TV…

…as well as a dresser.
Interesting shape
This dresser also holds the mini-fridge!
Ah, there it is!
There’s a decent amount of space in there for some leftovers.

There are also drawers on either side of the fridge with more storage.
Drawers
The trash and recycling bins are on the right of the dresser.
Remember to recycle!
And, this is where you’ll find the door to the adjoining room, if you need it.
Knock, knock!
On top of the dresser, you’ll see information about Disney’s enhanced cleaning protocols.
Keepin’ it clean
You can also find a room service menu here…
Breakfast in bed, anyone?
…and a guide to Disney World.
Hi, Mickey!
You may be wondering, “how does this room sleep 5 people?” Well, that’s where the sofa comes in!
Looks like a normal sofa, right?
This sofa actually converts into a bed by folding down the back of it.
Wrong! It’s a bed
If you need help, there are some instructions under the TV.
If you need a little help
Above the sofa, you can find more lighting and a small mirror, along with a light switch.
Funky!
Over across from the sofa and next to the beds is a small desk area.
Desk chair
This is where you will find the Keurig and some coffee…
Gotta have coffee
…along with the ice bucket and some coffee cups.

And, there’s a mirror above the desk if you need extra space to get ready besides the bathroom.
Magic mirror on the wall…
This room has some lovely curtains to go along with the theming of the hotel. These are great for blocking out the light so you can sleep in!
Fun!
There is also a sheer curtain you can use if you want to let light in but still want some privacy.
Just a sheer curtain
The glass doors lead out to the balcony — let’s check it out!
Come on outside
This is a pretty spacious balcony…
Little seating area
…with two metal chairs and a small table.
Just enough room for two
You can see our view of the marina from here!
Look at the water!
Here’s a better look at the view from this room.
Not bad!
And there you have it! That’s a full look at a room at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.

No thanks! I can rent a full house with my own private pool and fenced yard for less than half that.
it is getting ridiculous, and those beds look awful
Amen Kitty !
I have loved this hotel since they started building it. The last time we stayed the was for out 25th anniversary (1998). We were upgraded to Concierge in the main building with the view of the Castle. $250. + taxes a night. Boy how things have changed. I prefer the colors from then in the rooms/lobby.
Oh 1971 (first trip with parents) Contemporary was $35.00 + taxes. If I had money running out of you know what, I’d be staying at the GF in Nov. ( I always felt special when we stayed there), but since I don’t and it will just be me (Husband is gone) I’ll be staying at Pop Century. I still LOVE GF but the price is terrible.
1900 Park Fare Strawberry Soup (if they still have it) when they reopen is wonderful!!!!
I feel like every hotel room I stay in for $159 has the same amenities, plus breakfast!
If Disney brings back the Grand Floridian Society Orchestra, maybe I’ll consider staying at the resort again.
The price is outrageous, most of the resorts are over priced.
In Dec of 2019 we stayed at Port Orleans Riverside $230 a night. Now it’s $330/$360 for Dec. That’s getting to pricey a night.
ARE YOU KIDDING?????
Love Disney but this is my last trip with the family
Just tooooo expensive for a family any more
Thanks for sharing the pictures and the information but frankly I’ve stayed at Hiltons for a fraction of that price that had the same if not more amenities. The hotel pictured is nothing special at all IMO. I’ve always been curious about it and now I know not to stay there on my next trip to Disney.
Last time we stayed there was 1998 for our 25th anniversary. They upgraded us to the main building concierge level with a view of the castle. I liked the decorating better then that I do now (pictures). The price with taxes then was $250.00 a night. Wouldn’t pay the current price now but it’s also just me now as well. Great memories at a cheaper price.
As always, thanks to your team for the virtual room tour! It’s absolutely horrible that most families will never get to experience this or most of Disney’s resort rooms due to its overpricing! There’s just no value or exceptional benefits to staying there for that price! Very frustrating!
P.S. What’s the category of this room? Is it DVC?
