Hotels near Disney World with free shuttle service include Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando, SpringHill Suites at Flamingo Crossings, Wyndham Garden Lake Buena Vista, several Disney Springs-area Hilton hotels, and the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin resorts. Some also include free breakfast, but shuttle schedules, reservation rules, and park drop-off locations vary.
My top pick is Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando in the Disney Springs area. It includes a free hot breakfast, scheduled shuttles to all four Disney World theme parks, and no resort fee. SpringHill Suites Orlando at Flamingo Crossings also has free breakfast and a free Disney shuttle, but shuttle reservations are required. For EPCOT and Hollywood Studios, the Swan, Dolphin, and Swan Reserve offer walking paths and boat transportation.
Below, I compare 10 hotels near Disney World with shuttle service, including which provide free breakfast, which require shuttle reservations, how they get guests to Magic Kingdom, and whether they qualify for Early Theme Park Entry. A free shuttle can save money, but it is important to compare total hotel fees and transportation convenience.

Confirm current shuttle schedules, seat reservations, and Magic Kingdom drop-off locations before booking.
