About this episode
The Minotti Brothers rank and discuss the lobbies of various Walt Disney World resorts, exploring their unique atmospheres and details.
In this bonus episode of 90s Disney , AJ, Mike, and Chris take on a challenge no one asked for but every Disney fan will have an opinion about: ranking every Walt Disney World Resort lobby! From the opulent grandeur of the Grand Floridian to the cozy, cabin comfort of Wilderness Lodge, the brothers go resort by resort, debating atmosphere, theming, nostalgia, smells (yes, the smells), and those special details that make each lobby unique. It’s a fun, chaotic journey full of tangents about Christmas trees, elevator races, cereal from the 90s, and even who has the best lobby bar. Whether you’re a fan of tiki torches or towering totems, this episode will make you want to visit every resort just to sit in the lobby. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 01:05 Ranking Disney World Hotel Lobbies 01:45 Grand Floridian Lobby Discussion 06:45 Contemporary Resort Lobby Insights 10:03 Polynesian Resort Lobby Review 14:16 Wilderness Lodge Lobby Impressions 16:39 Port Orleans and Old Key West Lobbies 20:09 Yacht and Beach Club Lobbies 23:01 Swan and Dolphin Lobbies 24:07 Caribbean Beach Resort Lobby 25:54 Critiquing the Disney Swan and Dolphin Resorts 27:02 Exploring Pop Century and Art of Animation…
