There was a time at Walt Disney World when you would NEVER see a maintenance worker, landscaper, painter, etc. working during the day. All maintenance was done at night, discretely. Not any more; there's a huge crane on the north side of the hotel, the California Grill is being renovated. The parking lot is being resurfaced; and, there are parts... More

I accompanied my husband for a conference at this hotel in April and brought our nearly two year old son. I’ve stayed at several of the WDW resorts over the last 15 years, but this was my first at the Contemporary. We were only there for 3 nights and did not have the park hopper. It would have been a...

We returned to WDW again this year. Last year we stayed at the Wilderness Lodge and absolutely loved it. I must used a scooter so we decided to stay on the Monorail this year because it would make using the scooter much easier than having to take the bus everywhere. The hotel is an older hotel and the room we... More

Best location, best views, great accommodations, and excellent conveniences. Our minor problems of the door lock needing a new battery, a slow draining sink, and a refrigerator needing replaced paled in comparison to the outstanding services, staff, and value of the Contemporary Resort.

The contemporary resort, despite having been pruned through the addition of the new hotel, is still in the best position for holidaymakers. Not only does it sit on the monorail links, it also is only a short walk to the Magic Kingdom, which makes it a wonderful destination. Rooms are large and the hotel is typical Orlando: large, comfortable and... More

This resort is convenient. If you have small children and need a convenient hotel, this is the place. The rooms are nice and clean and the access to the monorail is wonderful. The location is perfect for a young family. The hotel does not have a typical Disney feel. It is kind of cold and offers little towards a "magical"... More

We are avid Disney travelers and this resort is hands down the best Disney has to offer! It is one of the most uniquely designed Disney properties. The building is reminiscent of Ancient Mayan Architecture with the Monorail gracefully runs through it curving off in the distance. The lipstick shape of Bay Lake accents the property perfectly.

I stayed here for business and vacation. Because I was here for a conference, I was given a Garden View room. I knew ahead of time this would mean a far walk to the main building, but even more so when they gave me a room at the very end of the hallway. Oh well. The hotel itself is nice... More

For my wife and I, this is the only option for accommodations at WDW. It's a pleasant place to stay with good dining options, and the location can't be beat. One can walk to the Magic Kingdom in minutes, or use the transportation system to easily access the other parks. The only inconvenience is returning to this hotel from Hollywood... More
