  • Overall: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "not a lot of choices food wise, if you are an adventurous eater- you'll love Boma buffet- my husband did- kid friendly food options- lots of fresh fruit, veggies, and typical ""fast food""- GREAT HOTEL." source Travelocity

    "Overall the resort was "okay", but for the money I would stay at the Contemporary instead and take advantage of their great pools and the monorail." source Travelocity

    "Definitely recommend this to anyone going to Orlando, whether you're a grown up or a kid, especially if you like animals." source Travelocity

    "With the animals roaming around right outside our balcony this was an all-around great experience, well worth the price." source Travelocity

    "Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel and would go again in a heart beat." source Travelocity

  • Clean: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "The hotel cleaning staff was friendly and efficient, The restaurant staff was helpful and offered smiles, and the staff that was in charge of activities and story-telling were charming and full of great information." source Travelocity

    "The hotel is beautiful, service is excellent, ground and rooms are clean and the Savannah views are fantastic." source Travelocity

    "Watching the animals walk by was neat, but you can only see them really early in the morning." source Travelocity

    "Very clean, great service, very relaxing suroundings,with two resturants, (Casual,and fine)." source Travelocity

    "The pool was great, they always had clean towels and never a bad spot to sit at the pool." source Travelocity

  • Service: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "Great service from arrival to check-out. Animal Kingdom Lodge at Disney World is a must see with the animals at the hotel and the great food and wonderful service." source Travelocity

    "Hotel is beautiful, service great, rooms great, pool/slide okay for smaller children, arcade room great for older kids, staff is very friendly." source Travelocity

    "You have the convenience and service of a Disney Resort, but when you leave the parks, it feels like you are somewhere else altogether." source Travelocity

    "From an accommodations and service standpoint, all of those hotel experiences were markably better than the Animal Kingdom Lodge." source Travelocity

    "With the animals, background music and sounds, the pool, the gift shop and the service, you couldn't imagine any place better." source Travelocity

  • Location: Rating of 4.0 out of 5

    "We enjoyed the pool, animals, play area, ambiance, staff, and night vision animal viewing (the hotel room does not have night vision)." source Travelocity

    "But that was ok becasue there are area in the Hotel where you can go see them." source Travelocity

    "We loved our Savanna view room and the pool area." source Travelocity

    "Pool area and restaurants GREAT." source Travelocity

  • Value: Rating of 4.0 out of 5

    "There is only one pool and the resort is spread out with ""wings"" which makes a great deal of walking from the center to get to your room." source Travelocity

    "The rooms are a little small for the price but provide breathtaking views of the animals." source Travelocity

  • Room: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "Be warned that if you get a standard room (at least one booked through a company other than Disney), there's a good chance you'll be overlooking the parking lot. If you ask for a room with a better view, you might get hit with an upgrade charge, even if you specifically are told that there will be no charge." source Travelocity

    "We were disturbed several times, housekeeping insisted we had requested a remote for our TV, (we didn't) after the 1st time when I said it was the wrong room, and put out the do not disturb we were contacted several more times about the same issue." source Travelocity

    "Despite a few minor issues with our room and noise, we had an amazing stay. We had a Savannah View room, but unfortunately, the animals had been moved due to construction - at least we had the real "view" for a day." source Travelocity

    "Savannah room offers close up of animals, however it is costly especially if most of your time is spent out of the room Great staff, beautiful resort, viewing spots for animals throughout the resort for all guests." source Travelocity
