Sorry buddy can't help you directly we have only stayed at Disney hotels and royal pacific resort at universal.

But if you need to know anything else about Disney / universal I could be of use.

I don't suppose that you happened to stay at the Disney Port Orleans resort by any chance as this is the alternative that the Travel Agent has been pushing at us. Just a bit concerned about it being suitable as it will be the wife and I travelling (no kids etc)?

Never stayed at Port Orleans but it's one we have considered.

Me and the wife have stayed on Disney with no kids and it's been great. POR isnt kiddie themed in the slightest.

We prefer to stay on site as I dont bother hiring a car and the Disney buses are great however it isn't easy to get from Disney to anywhere else via public transport so a car would be pretty much needed if you were doing sea world / universal etc.

Another reason we stay on site is we tend to go when they have the free dining offer on which works out well for us.

Prefer the universal parks, but always tend to stop in Kissimmee on the 192.

From what i've read on other boards many have a downer on the north end of I Drive (past Salt Lake Drive). Try looking on www.disboards.com

Florida = America for chavs.

I'm going to Florida next week - I suppose that makes me a chav does it? If so, is that good or bad?

There's more to Florida than Orlando. :)

But Orlando's good as it is. just not as great as a roadtrip around Colorado-Utah-Arizona-New Mexico.

Of International Drive, recently stayed at Quality Inn 7600 ID. Perfectly fine as a base, walking distance to Universal, and directly opposite Tilted Kilt. ;)

I agree, but I don't think my bairns would appreciate it as much as Orlando, although I would. We have a villa near Clermont for two weeks, any helpful tips for that neck of the woods anyone?

Disneyland may be the original but WDW is the biggest and best by all accouts.

I will do all of them though including Tokyo Disney and Disney Sea.

I was looking forward to seeing the shuttle launch on the 19th, but I have just found out it's been delayed until the 29th, which means I'll miss it. Damn and no blast.

I stayed on iDrive a couple of years ago, some cheap, yet clean and functional hotel opposite Wet N Wild (10 mins walk from Universal). RodeWay Inn I believe

I've done both WDW (Florida) and DL (LA) and WDW is MUCH better. DL feels very old and tired in comparison,

I'd like to do DL at somestage but not in a hurry, hopefully we'll be back at WDW next year, staying on site again though :)

Walt always planned WDW to be bigger and better, just a shame he never saw it realised.

only downside is its proximity to the faders scum. I love it and florida hasnt appealed to me even tho the family and mrs keep nagging ,rather go coloroda side and catch gods team lol
