I stayed at the Contemp. 5/19 - 5/23 2012 for a convention. I will say, when I heard the rack rate price for this hotel my jaw almost hit the floor. It's expensive, clearly. But the convenience of the monorail was priceless. Keep in mind what you will visit disney for; if you have kids and want to hit Magic... More

Reading these reviews, I think it's clear that some parts of the resort have been nicely updated and others haven't. We got lucky, or maybe just overpaid. We were on the 12th floor Club level and had a nice, clean, updated, bright room with a lovely view of Bay Lake. You can see the little electrical parade on the water... More

The Contemporary was a nice resort. Everything was clean and up to date. We had a 6 and 10 year old with us and they loved the resort. They enjoyed the room, the views, being able to see the lobby and monorail from the hallway, the game room and the food. This visit was all about them so my review... More

We stayed at the Contemporary over a long weekend (Thursday through Monday) and loved it. Our party was my husband and I, my parents who are early 60's and our daughter. Her 3rd bday was during the trip and they made such a fuss. I cannot imagine a better place to be. We upgraded to concierge level which was worth... More

Not at all what we expected . The smell of the rooms and hallways in the resorts were awful !! The carpet needs replacing in the rooms and hallways. This place needs a major renovation, not at all worth the money !! It was at least a 1/2 mile walk from our room to the disney transportation, the pics of... More

There are a lot of varied recommendations when it comes to staying on-property at Walt Disney World, but I always opt for the most unusual experience I can get. The Polynesian, Wilderness and Animal Kingdom Lodges are tremendously fun, but the Contemporary features a soaring A-frame design that boasts a massive concourse served by the endemic monorail service that Disney...

We absolutely loved our stay at The Contemporary. The location was so convenient to the Magic Kingdom with our 2 yo. We loved having the option of the monorail or the walking path. Loved having Chef Mickey's on site. We ate there twice. My daughter loved the magic of just seeing the characters as we'd walk by. She also thought... More
