Port Orleans -Riverside

smartwoman0 · 08-17-2007

Can anyone tell me about the Port Orleans Riverside. We are staying there for our trip in November and its the only place that can accomidate with a crib (so they say)

Also, what is the weather like in November?

Thank you!!

It's a very nice resort. We stayed at the sister resort French Quarter for the first time this summer and really liked it.

How many are in your group? As far as I know all the resorts sleep 4 people plus a child under 3 in a crib.

It's a beautiful resort. We are staying there for the second time next month. The grounds are lovely, they have a big food court, and a boat that goes to Downtown Disney. This is one of the few resorts that a family of 5 can stay in - they have trundle beds. You will have a great time.

Thank you. We are a family of 5, so we needed the trundle bed for our 16 year old son and they said that the only resort to accomidate us would be the Port Orleans Riverside. Do you know if there are mini-fridges in the rooms?

**roxie** · 08-17-2007

I think there are mini fridges in POR....it's been 2 years and I'm getting old!
I would confirm your reservation before you go just to make sure you are getting what you need though as far as trundle or crib.

**DisneyTeacher** · 08-17-2007

Since you are a family of 5 you really are limited on where you can stay. POR is the only morerate (or value for that matter) that will sleep a family of 5.

Yes, all the resorts but the values have a small fridge.

We stayed at POR.. and did not get a fridge. We got the standard coffee maker, iron , hair dryer, but no fridge. I would be sure to ask about that. We are a family of 4. We only had 2 beds, no trundle, I dont even think their was room for one.

We have stayed here a couple of times. It is our favorite mod resort.

**Dopey** · 08-17-2007

You will love it there.

Did you know that you can request a roll-a-way bed for any room at Disney?
The will charge you $15.00 per night for it, but you can have one!!!

Daisee, there is a trundle underneath one of the beds, but only in the Bayou section of the resort, as far as I know

I was just there this July . . . there was a fridge and two bed . . . you can request the roll away . . . I didn't realize there was a charge? Maybe that's only it you have more then 4 in the room? Call and ask . . .

There were two sinks, coffemaker, fridge, table with two chairs and it was a decent size room . . . altho, I felt it was in need of a face lift . . . BUT the resort itself is beautiful with great pools, dining, etc.

We were in the Mansion area.. not sure the exact name... but that is what they looked like. It has been 3 years, so I am sure they have added things since our stay.

I think you were there just before thay added the fridges to the rooms.

I think the mansion section looks beautiful. I added that request to our reservation yesterday, I know it's just a request but I hope we get it.
