TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Overall a very good hotel that gets most things right. Clean, safe and location. Some highlights include the California Grill and the travel options by walking, bus or Monorail to the Disney attractions. Crowds, yes, but it is Disney.

We booked our room through a blind deal and were excited to be staying in. this iconic hotel. We were not surprised to have our room in the Garden wing, since we had cheaper rate. The room was great, large with a couch and dining table, separate bar area with the mini frig, large bathroom and lots of storage. The theming was totally consistent with The incredibles and a futuristic look. It was a very short walk to the main building for the monorail stop, dining and shops and the small parking lot was right outside the hotel door. We quickly realized that our room was in the best spot. While it had all the theming and amenities of the hotel, it was very quiet. There is quite a lot of noise and activity in the atrium of the main building, so we felt like the garden wing was ideal. Resort buses are readily available and of course the monorail stop is inside the hotel. It is a quick monorail trip to the Magic Kingdom, but even better it is a short walk. The walking entrance from the hotel has its own security, so there is no line and it puts you right inside the park just past where the resort buses stop. While it is hardly inexpensive, it is a great hotel with an incredible location.

I am over the Disney bubble. The Contemporary hotel lacks the quality of service, upkeep, and food quality of other hotels in the same price range outside the Disney bubble. No bell hop service upon arrival, long wait to check in, angry bartenders that were upset they had to make a drink, subpar brunch buffet food for the price, and no food available anywhere after 11pm. I was actually told by the front desk to order Domino's. Disney... Do better.

Favorite Disney resort. Walkable to magic kingdom. Has great food options! Love the stores. Good view of the fireworks

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.
