Disney's Club Level (CL) Information & Questions

[Rachel GB]

We were by the elevators our last 2 trips and honestly, we were not bothered at all. You’ll hear the elevator chime if it’s quiet and occasionally people talking coming off, but the amount of people on the CL floor during our past stays were minimal. Never an issue. Enjoy!

@mrsap , thank you! I hope to be on the CL floor (will request) but see that these suites are on floors 3-15 and that one configuration wraps around the elevator bank. So glad to hear you had a good experience, appreciate your expert input (yet again!!!).

We're long time BWI CL fans. Once a year, first week of December. Due to hip replacements 6 weeks apart, starting in November, we had to move our December trip to February. We check in Tuesday! Deluxe room. The food and drinks are fine...but it's the staff that really makes the BWI CL worth every penny. If you don't see something, just ask and they will find it. Being newly refurbished, it's really clean and bright. You can't go wrong...I truly believe it's the best CL on Disney property.

We check in Wednesday!

I am hoping some of the experts here can give me some insight on the following question: how does the club level at DL Grand California compare to the club level experiences at WDW?

The family and I are planning our first ever DL trip for later this year. I have tons of questions that I am sure I will post on the Board later. But first question for us is deciding where to stay. My partner really wants this resort, so we are staying at Grand California. But we are undecided about whether to splurge for the club level. At WDW, we get club level rooms about 80% of the time. So, what are your opinions of the club level at DL and how does it compare to the club levels at WDW? Thanks!

I posted about GCH CL in July of this year - I don’t have those images on my phone anymore or would re-post, but they are buried here. I will say out of the gate that I am a WDW person and biased, but I thought this was pretty awesome. I don’t do much breakfast but recall it being more heavy continental. Mid-day offerings were definitely more substantial than current ones anywhere at WDW. Evening items were great. No self-pour alcohol, but they weren’t stingy. I am jonesing for Disney and don’t know if I’ll be back to FL before May (I live a couple hours from
DL) so I was looking around - saw DLH has a current note about E-ticket club closures, I know GCH has the other club happening, but I didn’t see anything about disruptions. I personally think GCH is the closest to WDW-like you can get in terms of a resort, DLH feels very much like a random hotel to me.

The new GCH CL is being built across the hall from the current one, I would not expect the current one to close during construction at all.

Nice to hear evening apps are good again! My fam did a big trip in Apr ‘22 and the apps for 3 out of 4 nights were skewers, quite disappointing. (I chalked it up to Covid as DL’s ops were still very much being affected by the ripple effects in CA at that point, but I hadn’t followed up on the current situation to be sure as we shifted to WDW.)
