"By far the most interesting Disney-run hotel—and the best choice for guests who aren't enamored of the company's mythology."

"Entering the vast atrium lobby is like entering a cathedral with a roof formed of thatch rather than marble."

"The impressive glass wall in the lobby overlooks a vast savanna that allows for random sightings of birds, giraffe, and other wildlife."

"One of Disney’s most spectacular luxury hotels, where from some of the rooms... you can wake up to see wildlife grazing outside your window."

"When booking a reservation at this horseshoe shaped lodge, ask for a Savannah View room, which offers vistas of Animal Kingdom's grazing animals from its private balcony."

"Guests at this resort are stranded on a breathtaking Pacific island paradise, with a lagoon-style pool and play area, Emeril’s Tchop Chop restaurant (a must for adults), and superior service."
Rough Guide
"The comfortable rooms here are decked out in bamboo to enhance the “tropical” theme, while the kids will enjoy the lagoon-style pool. $289."

"Competing just below its siblings Hard Rock Hotel and the Portofino Bay Hotel, this savvy South Pacific wannabe is the most laid back of the three."

"Orlando is no stranger to themed hotels and the Royal Pacific, a member of the Loews hotels, may be one of the most unique."
