Disney's Contemporary Resort

My kids are happy with the theme park view also can enjoy the fireworks at night

Good place to stay and great location

Stayed here overnight with my husband and 2 girls as we were doing mickeys not so scary halloween party. As we arrived early our room wasn’t ready so we went to the pool. There were plenty of seats around the pool. The views over the lake by the pool is beautiful. We enjoyed the pool including the slide. Got an email at 2pm to say our room was available. Had a room in the main building with a balcony facing the lake. It was a gorgeous view. The room was very clean and modern. We used the monorail to get to magic kingdom. At the end of the might it was a very easy 10 minute walk back to hotel. The next morning we had breakfast at the contemporary cafe then used the pool again and enjoyed the pool games. This hotel is excellent in being so near to magic kingdom. The staff were all very friendly and we would definitely return here in the future.

It’s really expensive but you know that when you book. I had a view over the pool and the lake which was nice. The monorail runs through the building. The best part is that you can walk to magic kingdom without taking transportation. Which is fun. The pool is also nice.

We stayed in the Garden Wing, room 6319, from September 7–11. The room was located at the end of a long hallway from the elevators, but we quickly discovered that the stairs were nearby, which made access much easier. Housekeeping came every day, and the room itself was clean, updated, and comfortable. This particular room had a stand-up shower only (no tub). The area was very quiet, and the best part was the short, easy walk to Magic Kingdom—it’s hard to beat that convenience. Overall, it was a nice stay. If I wanted to be close to Magic Kingdom again, I would definitely stay here. While this resort offers monorail access, I personally prefer the Skyliner resorts, but the location here is excellent for MK.

We’re currently staying at Disney”s Contemporary Resort and it’s disappointing. The resort is iconic but we paid £2000 extra to stay in the main tower only to have a view of a full on construction site. It mentions the resort is under construction but not a full blown construction of another resort across the lake. I should have spent my £2000 on something else I feel like I’ve been robbed. Only transportation to Epcot is by Monorail that can sometimes take up to an hour. We checked out of Loews Portofino Bay on Thursday which is a Universal deluxe and it’s far superior in transportation views etc. For two days house keeping didn’t come until after 4:00pm. I then requested they come earlier. If you go to the Contempo Cafe to refill your mugs some of the drinks are not available. This has been since we got here. The resort is iconic but it’s not worth the amount we paid. Wish we’d stayed somewhere else.
