Disney's Contemporary Resort

A 12 year old girl once saw this hotel from a monorail ride her Aunt took her on. It was like nothing she had ever seen before, in her life! Fast forward 43 years, and my dream of staying there came true. *I took my favorite people. *We had Club Services, stayed on the 12th floor. *Got spoiled by staff. *Had a beautiful view of the lake. *Great access to all the fun. *Beautiful views of the Magic Kingdom, from the Club, both day and night... including fireworks! Staff was lovely, no matter who we dealt with. It could not have gone any better. Well, maybe not having to pay $5 to get a package I already paid to have shipped...that would be better.

The hotel is conveniently located to the monorail making it easy to get to Magic kingdom and Epcot. You could also get to the Poly and Grand Floridian.We could take a boat to Fort Wilderness which made it easy to get to the hoop de do dinner show. Buses came quickly to get to Hollywood studios and animal kingdom or Disney springs. We stayed in a garden view room but it was still close to everything. The room was large and clean and the bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning cool enough. We had a Kerurig coffeemaker and the coffee and tea pods as well as creamers were constantly refilled. The bathroom amenities were constantly replac d as well. The pool was large and there was a huge water slide that was very popular with kids. Chef Mickeys was a great character meal. The employees were all very friendly and helpful. We would not hesitate to stay there again.

We enjoyed staying at The Contemporary Resort. The rooms are comfortable with a lot of room. The grounds were very nice; we were able to take some good pictures with the Mickey decor. My grandsons loved the slide at the pool. We would definitely stay here again.

We recently visited the California Grill on 15th floor if The Contemporary Resort for dinner. I am vegan and one of my companions vegetarian and our menu was excellent, as was the third person in our party who chose from the regular menu. The view from the 15th floor is amazing and an experience in itself. At 10 pm we stood on the viewing platform and watched the Halloween fireworks from the Magic Kingdom - this was something not to be missed.

While it wasn't my first-time visiting Walt Disney World is was however my first time actually staying on Disney property. With this property being minutes away from the Magic Kingdom (by walking or the monorail) it was one of the primary selling points as this was a family vacation. My room- 4229 was on the hotels 6th floor in the main tower and offered a pretty cool view of the Magic Kingdom and would be most likely considered one of the standard rooms at the Contemporary featuring two queen beds, a balcony and a nice sized bathroom with dual sinks. Even though the room I was given was one floor below the monorail I never heard it. During my 3 night stay we had dinner once at The Wave and breakfast twice at Chef Mickey's. Both restaurants were covered in the Disney Dining Plan during our stay. The food and service was delicious at both restaurants and we really enjoyed the character experience at Chef Mickey's. All parties opted to use the early check-in feature within the MyDisney Experience feature and it worked great. By the time our flight landed at MCO, claimed our luggage and checked in for Disney's Magical Express we received text messages with our room numbers which allowed all of us to skip the front desk completely. While our magical vacation took place while Hurricane Dorian had his eyes on Florida our family really enjoyed our stay at Disney's Contemporary Resort and a sincere thanks to the hotel staff for letting my have a late check-out as it was greatly appreciated.
