Resort Photo Tour

We visited this new resort on the first day, 16 Dec 2019. It was a very ‘Dapper’ day, to say the least. The resort was bustling with its first guests checking in, and heading for the first breakfast seating. I say many notable bloggers such as DFB and Disney Tourist Blog and other Disney guests.

Having opened at Christmas time the resort was deck out in all its holiday colours.

Crisp hallways with blue and gold accents in the carpets.

Travel Around Disney World

  • Located in the Epcot Resort area

The resort is situated in a great spot with premium access to the Disney Skyliner GONDOLA network, it has its own station! That being said I was staying in Aruba at Disney’s Carribean Beach Resort during this time which is right beside the Riviera Skyliner station as well.

Disney Skyliner Transportation | Riviera Station

The dedicated station at the Riviera Resort has the option of two-directions a single lag journey to Epcot’s International Gateway our a journey to the Carribean Beach Resort station for transfer to the Disney’s Hollywood Studios Skyliner lag.

Resort Hotel Review

Impressions

* I have not stayed at this resort but hope to visit soon.

Having not yet stayed at this resort, celebrating the grandeur of Europe, I can tell you from having lived in Europe for many years, this resort looks and feels very comfortable and has beautiful greenery throughout.

Its exterior features have a very uniquely Disney European feel to them. With for me a mix of France, German, and Italian Styling.

Recreation

Pool Areas

A family-friendly pool

A relaxation pool for a more serene experience.

Athlétique Fitness Center

Maintain those gains during your Disney trip. You don’t have to skip leg day at the Riviera Resort.
