What’s New at Disney World Hotels: Valet Parking Returns and Construction Continues!

Hello, everyone! We’ve been busy doing what we do every day — going to Disney World, eating all the food, and checking out all the new merchandise in the shops.

Under the Boardwalk…

That also means we spend some time at Disney World’s hotels to see if anything has been going on there, too! So let’s get started with the updates!

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort Miscellaneous Updates

Valet Parking

After over a year, Valet Parking has officially returned to the Grand Floridian!

It was previously only available to guests with disabilities, but it’s now open for all. It’s still $33 per night.

Although we’ve seen some locations at Disney World bring back self-serve beverages, this is not the case at BoardWalk Bakery.

Cast Members still serve your beverage for you here.

We’ll let you know if that changes!
