Great hotel, missed opportunity for Disney Magic

Jennifer W on May 31, 2025

We just returned from our stay at the WDW Swan, and overall, the experience was wonderful. The accommodations were clean, cozy, and comfortable—especially the beds, which were incredibly relaxing after lon...g park days. While the rooms were on the smaller side, they were thoughtfully laid out and very well maintained. The hotel's location couldn’t have been better—convenient and close to the parks, making it easy to come and go throughout the day. For breakfast on our non-park days, Rosa Mexicano quickly became our favorite spot. On park days, Java was a great grab-and-go option, though I do wish they offered a gluten-free breakfast sandwich. We also dined at Il Mulino, the Fountain, and Cabana Bar and Beach Club—all of which delivered great food and excellent service. The only downside to our visit was a missed opportunity for some Disney magic. When my daughter lost a tooth, we reached out to both the concierge and front desk. We were told she had been added to a list, but unfortunately, nothing ever came of it. Not even a small note from Tinkerbell, which we’ve heard is a common gesture at Disney-affiliated properties. A simple acknowledgment would have meant a lot, and it was disappointing to see that moment missed. Still, aside from that one hiccup, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely return.

Had to move rooms, was promised a credit and did not receive

Mike S on May 27, 2025

I really wanted to write a great review for this property. I liked the rooms and liked the location. However, I had an issue with my room where water was leaking up through the floor. I was contacted by ho...tel management while I was in the park during day 3 (of 4) of my stay and was told I had to move my family of five to another set of rooms. So- got back to my room after a great day in the park around 10pm. After repacking my family up and moving to another room at we were re-settled by 11:00pm. I was told I would be credited for the difference of the lesser room and for inconvenience. (I was also told that I would have help moving the room, but when I called down no one answered and my son and I moved us ourselves.) We had one day left in Orlando the park and spent majority of day in the park, getting home late again that night before having to get up early for an early morning flight. My wife and I had quick bit for lunch at the hotel, but otherwise, we were maximizing our last day in the park. I never received the full credit and when I inquired, I was told I had to use the credit in the hotel, instead of crediting my card as I was told the night of my move. So while I really liked the location of the hotel and the rooms are nice, I definitely did not feel valued as a guest.
