Gayot "Located in the community of Celebration, just minutes from the Walt Disney World theme parks, this hotel features 240 one- and two-bedroom suites."
Frommer's "Curvy-walled and cloistered, this 240-room hotel arrived on the scene in 2008 (as the Mona Lisa—her grinning image still greets guests in the lobby) and remains a peaceful, well-kept secret." Full review
Fodor's "Much like a European boutique hotel in style and service, the Meliá Orlando is very human in scale and crisply minimalist in decor, and is only minutes from Disney." Full review

"The 240-room Melia Orlando Suite Hotel at Celebration is an upscale, family-friendly, all suite hotel conveniently located near the interstate and a short drive from the Disney theme parks." Full review

A free shuttle connects guests to the theme parks, but there's an unavoidable resort fee tacked onto the room.

"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."
