While Disney has been bringing back so many great things we have missed, they are also taking things away too. Unfortunately, room service is no longer an option all Disney World resorts – except one. Here’s what you need to know about this change and what to do if you want room service.

Room service

After spending a long day in the parks or in an airplane getting to Disney, room service can be valuable for those wanting to grab a bite to eat in their room. It has also been beneficial for those who feel more comfortable dining privately since masks are not required in restaurants.

And sometimes, it’s just a matter of convenience when you have a big family and need to juggle eating and getting ready before a full day. That’s me.

I don’t use room service often, but when I do I really enjoy it. All you need to do is look over the room service menu provided for you in your room and simply hit that “dining” button on your room phone.

Pandemic changes

Before the pandemic, Disney offered in-room dining at many resorts on property. Unfortunately, that changed when the parks reopened. At first, no resorts offered room service as it meant some level of close contact between Cast Members and Guests, not to mention Disney laid off thousands of employees.

They quietly brought it back to Disney’s Yacht Club in August, and by the time I visited in September, Beach Club offered it as well. Since then, many of the deluxe resorts and Coronado Springs have offered room service.

Gone…again

It hasn’t even been a full year since the parks reopened, and Disney has already changed their mind on room service again.

All resorts have stopped offering room service to Guests with the exception of one resort. So which resort is it? Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa still offers room service, and you can see for yourself under dining options of Disney’s website page for the Grand Floridian.

There has been a major push for mobile to-go options and ordering in the parks and resorts. It’s pretty much the only way to get a bite to eat at a quick-service restaurant in the parks and around property. Even some table-service restaurants and snack locations offer to-go options. I think Disney is trying to encourage more of that so they are doing away with room service.

Everyone is right. I used to love staying on Disney property. All the perks and "Disney" ways made it worth the price. It's not anymore. All the extras have slowly been taken away

The price is the same and you can't get some of the best rooms! Room Service is not a perk or amenity. Any top resort or hotel has room service. Disney is quickly degrading to a three star restort.

Disney is losing all of it perks. All the special and fun things are being taken away. I understand there was a big layoff and Disney sees that a lot of those things aren’t necessary but people are paying the price for all the bells and whistles. Stop catering to the rich and focus on the working class. If room service is discontinue then that means for everyone not selected hotels. Please bring back sit down meals that’s the only time families have time to spend time together and have some down time.

It is absolutely unreal and pathetic that they keep taking things away, not bringing enough stuff back (characters, character dining, fireworks, fast passes etc) but we are expected to still pay outrageous prices that only continue increasing. I was appalled at the price of Boo Bash when it doesn’t have a third of the offerings MNSSHP and you can’t even get in as early as with MNSSHP. We have rescheduled our trip 3 times and are going Sept 2021 just to get it over and done with as we used gift cards to purchase the trip. I’m so disappointed with Disney and won’t be back for a very very long time.
