My family is planning a Walt Disney World trip next Thanksgiving and we are unsure what hotel we should stay at. We've stayed at the Beach Club, Yacht Club, Contemporary, and Grand Floridian. Our favorite hotel is the Grand Floridian and we stay there as much as possible, but we're in the mood for a change. Our friends recently stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and loved it. I fear staying there because of the transportation. Unlike the Contemporary or Grand Floridian, you don't have the Monorail, and unlike the Yacht and Beach Clubs, you don't have the boat service. We prefer to not stay at the Contemporary or Polynesian because of their age, and any hotel that is not a Deluxe Hotel. I've heard the Boardwalk is also a great choice, but I'm still undecided. Any Ideas?
