If you want to be within walking distance to both Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and would prefer to stay at a non-Disney owned hotel (so you can get other discounts), take a look at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel.

• You’re close enough that you can walk (or take a water taxi) to both Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
• Since it’s not a Disney owned hotel, but is owned by the Starwood Hotels and Resorts, you can find different deals and discounts that you may not see in a Disney owned resort.
• There are many dining options, including lounges, quick-service, casual dining, and fine/signature dining.
• Some activities available include tennis, volleyball, basketball, jogging trails, a playground, arcade, miniature golf, spa, health club, and more.
• There is a 3 acre water area with a waterfall, slide, caves, and hot tubs.
• Since it’s on Disney property, you can use the Disney busses and other on property transportation, get packages delivered to your hotel, and participate in Extra Magic Hours, as well as Fastpass+.
• Note: Even though it’s on Disney property, you don’t get to use Magical Express, can’t get the Disney Dining Plan, and can’t make charges to the room outside of the hotel.
