"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." Full review
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." Full review
Lonely Planet "Lush gardens and a jubilant Mardi Gras motif blend in an effort to create a Louisiana feel to these sister resorts." Full review

"Designed like an old town on the Mississippi Delta, the huge, 2,048-room Riverside is one of Disney's best Moderate-category hotels." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This antebellum, Southern-style resort has two distinctive areas alongside a picturesque Mississippi-style waterway."
Rough Guide "This resort
combines two Southern themes: the row houses and
cobbled streets of New Orleans in the French Quarter; and
the grandiose manors overlooking the Mississippi River at
the Riverside."

""Evoking the grandeur of the Old South" and offering "serenity to the overstimulated", this "gem" is a "sprawling" resort set on "lovely" grounds in a "killer" location."
Fodor's "Buildings in this family-friendly, moderately priced resort look like Southern plantation–style mansions (in the Magnolia Bend section) and rustic bayou dwellings." Full review
Gayot "Elegant manors and quaint bayou lodges pay tribute to Dixie at this relaxing, moderate Disney resort."
