I finally stayed at the Boardwalk Inn and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My room was lovely and the view out of my patio window was the France pavilion and Spaceship Earth. Fireworks right out my window were lovely. Housekeeping was generous with the Joffrey's Mickey 90th Birthday coffee-I'm a tea drinker and the samples won me over-I bought a bag of the coffee to take home. The location of the hotel was fantastic. Walking into Epcot was just wonderful. My pin trading bag and I made quite a few trips over there. I really enjoyed sampling Boardwalk offerings like the bakery and Ample Hills Creamery. I would not hesitate to stay here again but the price is prohibitive. The location can't be beat!
Pros:
Location, beautiful hotel, nice cast membersCons:

When we checked in,Heather went and upgraded our room to a garden view room on the 5th floor where we were able to see the fireworks at Epcot. The next day we received cookies and milk from the staff. The card said Welcome Home. We also loved the fact that the cleaning staff worked around our schedule and did a great job in our room. 1st time at the Broardwalk and we will be coming back.
Pros:
Loved the location so close to Epcot and studiosCons:

Love this resort, stayed here from Oct. 20th thru Nov. 1st. This was our third time staying here and as usual this resort doesn't disappoint. Great staff. I had requested a first floor room, which we got. The room was huge and immaculate, looked like it had recently been refurbished. We will be staying here again during next years visit.
Pros:
beautiful resort, close to epcot and hollywood studiosCons:

Just got back from a trip during marathon weekend. My Wife ran the race and staying at a EPCOT resort was very convenient. She went to sleep early and I enjoyed the boardwalk entertainment. The Resort was using the new RFID keys. Had one issue where the maid threw out some water bottles I had and the front desk without question credited them to my account. Loved it and would stay again.
Pros:
Atmosphere, CleanlinessCons:

My family loves staying at the Boardwalk. Most recently we had a Boardwalk View. I've heard some people say it is too noisy, but my experience couldn't have been any better. Wonderful view of the lake and Epcot. The pool is nicely tucked away, with great bar service and is compact enough it's easy to keep track of the kids. Location can't be beat. Epcot is a short walk. HS can be accessed via the skyline, boat or walking path (my favorite).
Pros:
Location to Epcot and HS Hotel Layout Restaurants and Boardwalk ActivitiesCons:
I'm surprised someone hasn't gotten rolled over by the board walk bikes.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/20/2022

We stayed at the Innkeepers Club. It was wonderful! The staff is enthusiastic and very helpful. There is a pleasant ambiance. After tiring days at the parks, returning to the Club level was welcoming.
Pros:
Food in the lounge is delicious. Club level is an oasis in the whirlwind of Disney World.Cons:
The cons are not caused by the staff or club level. There some parents who just let their children scream, shove in front, run wild. Trying carrying a plate of food and a drink with all that underfoot. The parks are overrun with people staring at phones, large strollers and scooters. You have to navigate very carefully. We will return to Club level at the Boardwalk but will plan the next trip in at a less crowded time.Reviewed by Hayleabug11 Review Date: 09/13/2021

Loved the view ! Stayed here for a weekend stop in dec during Covid felt very safe staying here they were nice enough to upgrade us to see spaceship earth wish fireworks were going on
Pros:
Beautiful resort , great view , so easy if your going to Epcot or Hollywood !Cons:
Pull out bed instead of the Murphy style bed in the deluxe studio for dvc so you can feel the metal in the frame of the bed . Only thing I would change is the pullout couch to change to the Murphy style like at riviaraReviewed by Zuzu71 Review Date: 09/06/2021

I stayed here for 3 nights in a king room overlooking the lake. I paid for a king with a garden view and was very pleasantly surprised with the view when I arrived. My room was ready before I showed up at 11 AM. I received a notification as I was en route from the airport. Everything was clean and functioned properly. I would absolutely choose the accommodation again.
Pros:
Location, location, location!Cons:

We stayed at Boardwalk Nov. 2-Nov. 8. We chose Boardwalk because it was close to Epcot & we were there mainly for Food & Wine Festival. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a CM & found out we were upgraded to Club Level! This was good, however we only utilized breakfast & one afternoon of snacks. So, is Club Level worth it, in my opinion, not really. We did have turn down service & all our packages were delivered to the room. However, for the cost of this resort, a standard room would have been just fine.
The Bar, The Bell Vue Room, was small & quaint. It was a good place to unwind after a busy day at the parks. And the bartender was fantastic. Our drinks were made to perfection, especially the Bloody Mary's!!
The room was comfortable & just big enough for my son and I. Housekeeping was wonderful & we always had fresh towels at the end of the day.
The only drawback, & this is only my opinion, was the size of the balcony. It was very small. It could have been just the location of our room, but when you opened the balcony door from the room, the door hit the table & you really couldn't move around on the balcony. Besides, we would have preferred a room with an Epcot view.
Other than that one complaint, I would HIGHLY recommend The Boardwalk to anyone. The CM's were wonderful & very accommodating. We enjoyed the convenience of being so close to two parks, which saved a lot of bus time.
