Originally Posted By RoadTrip You knew it had to come... what are the best restrooms in WDW? Name one for each park and one for the resort hotels. Magic Kingdom In the tunnel between Adventureland and Frontierland. It is large and almost ALWAYS clean and well-stocked. The tunnel area is also a great place to wait out an Orlando drenching in a park that doesn't have that much indoor space. Epcot The restroom in Morocco. It is not heavily used and always clean. It is also very close to France, which is the best place at Epcot to watch Illuminations. The view may not be the best in the park, but if you can grab a table right at the rail of the Showcase Lagoon you have found Illuminations Nirvana. A comfortable place to watch Illuminations with a wine concession just steps away. If you still aren't sold, just repeat after me... "Grand Mariner Slushies". Disney Studios Although they aren't that spectacular, I would have to give the nod to the restrooms just outside the ABC Commissary. They are very centrally located and almost always clean. Animal Kingdom The restrooms in the central square of Harambe. Again, not spectacular but almost always clean and in a wonderful location. Just outside is a wonderful circle of seating for anyone who might be waiting for you. Just across the street is the Dawa bar, a terrifically shaded and comfortable place with entertainment to while away the hours while you wait for the afternoon parade to start. The "Harambe Cooler" is hard to beat. I've never had more than a couple since I've always been there with a wife. But I'm convinced that sufficient consumption of this Nectar of the Gods would result in a mystical, religious experience. Resort Hotel The restroom just outside the Belle Vue room (a lounge) at the Boardwalk. The Belle Vue Room is everything that a bar in a nice hotel should be. Comfortable, quiet and sophisticated with a WONDERFUL bartender. Allan has been taking care of me for about 10 years now, and he ALWAYS does an excellent job. I really preferred it when you could get a flight of Single Malt Scotches there (Oban, Talisker, Lagavullin, Cragganmore and Dalwhinnie). That apparently fell victim to the standardization of menus at WDW. That and the fact that many of these scotches now cost between $60 and $90 a fifth. The restroom itself? Elegant. Always sparkling clean... so much so that you almost feel you should wipe everything down after using it. No paper towels or wind machines here... you are given a basket of freshly laundered and rolled towels right next to the sink with another basket beneath the sink to dispose of them. The only thing that could be better would be to have an attendant to hand you the towel, but then you'd have to tip him so it is all good the way it is.
Originally Posted By Bolna That's actually a difficult one. Most of them aren't too memorable. But I have a few: Epcot: The one behind the Imagination pavillion. Nobody ever seems to be there, it is very quiet and you feel like you have gone backstage. Since it is so little frequented it is also very clean. Disney Studios: I really like the one on Sunset Boulevard (halfway down the road opposite the market area. For no specific reason, but for its location in a side street and outside theming. Animal Kingdom: They are all pretty good, but I guess the best one would be the one at Rafiki's Planet Watch because there are poo facts posted on the stall door, so you have something interesting to read... resorts: There are some really beautiful ones in the deluxe resorts, but my favourite is the one at California Grill. It isn't anything more than a very nice modern restroom. And while California Grill sometimes is rather hectic, walking to the restroom along a very nice hallway you leave all the noise behind you. It makes me feel like I am at a special place. And I think it is helped by the fact that I have some very good memories of my meals at California Grill.

Originally Posted By leobloom >> Before we go any further here, did Leo give all of us the express written permission to talk about his copy righted material???? << RT needed to run this topic past me so that he could get my OK. He didn't and this is a blatant violation of LaughingPlace guideline 3.4 which says that I have a monopoly on restroom threads. But this one time, we'll let it go. Glad to see some discussion of the WDW restrooms -- the real reason to visit the Florida parks. And for the record, Explorer got the right answer - Fantasyland Quail Tiles. I even have them tattooed on my shoulder.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I found all the toilets in WDW pretty much functional and unremarkable, that is why the quail tile bathrooms stand out.

So much so we took some pictures of them. Lol.

Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer I'm going to miss the quail times so much when they are demo'd to make room for Peter Pan's new queue... Sigh.
Originally Posted By leobloom Maybe you'll get lucky and they'll put them up for auction on ebay. But then I'd have to outbid you, no matter what. So, yes, be sad. The quails are going away.
