It’s true, currently there is no advantage to booking a Disney hotel over any other. Except maybe location for some resorts. If that’s still the case next year we’ll most likely switch our booking to ticket only.

Agree with this, we arent doing the parks but looking at a few nights in a value for the days we want to do Disney Springs and make a few ADRs at the hotels as its cheaper than getting ubers from Universal plus Magical Express to the airport

PrincessN you can be within walking distance to DS & be a lot closer than any of the Values in fact you could choose any of the Hotels at the Crossroads/LBV & still be closer than any of the Values!
IMO whilst any restrictions are in place, there will be no offers,they would give themselves a logistical nightmare not to mention the PR one when Guests start complaining that there are no Park reservations available! I can also see a "tweak" coming because it's open to "abuse", if you can book 14 days then guests will book those 14 days then amend at the latest possible time but potential guests are going to look & think "well there's nothing available, why bother?

We have booked a value for next July after moving our POFQ booking from this year. We’ve booked POP century preferred room because it’s been newly refurbished and has the skyliner.
If an offer comes out we will upgrade the hotel (which will hopefully save the deposit) but are happy to stay there if no offer comes along. We will add dinning free or paid, maybe on one room as we have two if that is reintroduced. To stay for 11 nights at pop in a preferred room is £950 cheaper than FQ standard room which we would’ve preferred but will obviously go a long way to pay for food.P if needed. We also managed to keep our gift cards from this years booking so that’ll help too if no offer comes out. All stars is a good option too and Movies has had a refurb too and looks really nice. Kat

Good point, i have stayed at B resort before and it was easily walkable for Springs, we would like to do a day at Epcot for Flower and Garden but if the reservation system is in place it would be a bit daft to pay for 1 day tickets if we cant get into the park so there isnt really any benefit in staying on site other than Magical Express

We are considering AoA. I told the kids we would have to do All Stars music because it is £600 cheaper that AoA, but my kids LOVE the theming at AoA. I was thinking that with that and the skyliner it might feel less value (like Pop). We do also love the look of all star movies, but it is only £100 less than AoA. But neither are close to Disney springs so I assume not walkable to off-site dining. At the same time, I am thinking Epcot may have some good choice of counter service, so perhaps we could save a little that way.

We love Disney Springs and spend loads of time there, so will very much miss the boat from FQ by not staying there. I’m hoping the skyliner will make up for that by having the access to all the fab places to eat at Epcot. Although I’m not sure how that’ll work if they still have the one park per day rule still in place next summer?
I suppose there will still be plenty of busses to DS so will just have to use them instead of the boat. 🙂 Kat

PNicki slightly different but we had been looking at POFQ so that we could use DME from airport, we are ok going back as we are at our DVC, but POFQ for 10 nights was £2500, we considered Vistana -£900 but would need a car for the whole stay but there were plenty of closer Hotels in the £1100-£1500 mark & you can get a lot of taxis/ubers for £1000!
