It's a different perspective. You miss all the scenes being displayed on the water. So your view is more o the fountains in general. I suggest watching one night at DCA to get the full experience. - DisneyBride°O°  366.5 #381 12:17PM

Sure did .. It was an awesome view from the 12th floor. Once the park closes you can watch them test the system with a completely different show. Just crack the windows and you'll get 85% of the sound. The only hard part is leaving the park early to make it to the room. - EarthStarTech  6.0 #9089 12:23PM

I LOVE the PPH!!! We stayed in room 1402 (upper level theme park view)You cannot see the images that are projected on the water but you can see the show. It's really cool! They play the music on your tv as well. We could actually hear it without that though. PPH has INCREDIBLE views of DCA!! We could also see and hear the silly swings going during the day and the screams from California Screamin :) We had concierge service as well. The room was great (just as nice as our room at the Grand on our previous trip) You walk through the Grand lobby and DTD and it's wonderful!!! We will TOTALLY stay there again on our trip in January!!! Worth every penny we paid for the view and concierge!! I would highly recommend PPH!! - brittandkell  288.4 #677 12:27PM

Thank you all for your insight! I think we'll do it! We've seen WOC before and another perspective might be nice. - eeyorelove  251.0 #1005 1:00PM

I loved it!!! we stayed on I think the 12th floor and it was so fun to play the music and watch it from the window - cmdlgurl  255.5 #951 1:02PM

A really cool different perspective is from the balcony on the 6th floor of the grand. You will be facing it instead of being behind it and you can go up there right before the show starts instead of walking all the way back to your room. - JNewie  226.4 #1289 1:28PM
