This
contemporary-styled hotel is first class and yet fun and whimsical,
with its bright, tropical theme. Bold colorful murals adorn the
walls in the common areas. But when it comes to customer satisfaction,
the staff at the Doubletree Suites, get serious. Kids will
be enthralled to see that they have their “own” check-in desk,
a Kid’s Theater, game room and arcade. And of course, one of the
best parts of a stay in any Doubletree Guest Suite is receiving
the signature fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies that accompany
the warm welcome you get at check-in!
Although the Doubletree
Guest Suites is
not Disney-owned, it is nonetheless an official Walt Disney
World® resort hotel and can therefore
offer some of the amenities that guests of the Walt Disney
World Resorts enjoy.
