The Belle Vue Room with its cozy library decor is a great way to enjoy the ambience of Disney’s Boardwalk Inn even if you’re not a current guest.  Just a few steps from the main lobby, this lovely room plays several roles throughout the day.

Light breakfast items are served from 6:30 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. and can be enjoyed in the main room or outside on the balcony overlooking the green.

The room offers a peaceful retreat in the middle of the day. Take a break from the parks and curl up in a cushy chair with a newspaper or spend an hour at the chess board.  There are comfortable sofas and the sun spills through French doors onto polished wood floors. Shelves are filled with books, board games, and antiques; old-time “broadcasts” whisper from vintage radios.

As evening falls, the atmosphere becomes warm and intimate.  The bar opens at 5:00 p.m. making this the perfect spot for a cocktail before dinner or enjoying a nightcap with friends.  Guests are often treated to personal performances from entertainers wandering in from the Boardwalk. Don’t miss the signature beverage, “The Shadow.”   This drink alone is worth the trip!
