The Epcot area is about to get a brand new DVC hotel.

With stunning views of Epcot and Hollywood Studios, Disney's Riviera Resort will be the 15th DVC resort. There will be a roof top restaurant too, so guests can take in the fireworks as they enjoy their evening meal.

The resort will be connected to the new Skyliner transport system and is expected to be built near the Caribbean Beach Resort.

Riviera Resort will likely open its doors to guests in the autumn of 2019.
