"You can't pick a more dreamily convenient Disney hotel—it's a single monorail stop away from the Magic Kingdom, and four from Epcot."
Fodor's
"The view across the lake to the Magic Kingdom is spectacular, day or night, as you can see the colors change on the Cinderella Castle along with the fireworks."

"A "New Orleans theme radiates through" this "wonderful", "relaxing" "hidden gem" of a resort offering "lovely" grounds with "cobblestone streets"."
Fodor's
"Ornate Big Easy–style row houses with wrought iron–clad balconies cluster around magnolia-shaded squares in this relatively quiet resort, which appeals to couples more than families."

Gayot
"Enjoy some Southern charm at Disney’s Port Orleans, a pleasant, moderate resort that captures the color and quaintness of the famed French Quarter."
Frommer's
"The main pool at Riverside is less elaborate than French Quarter’s, although it has five pools to French Quarter’s one."
