About Disney's Contemporary Resort

Disney's famous '60s-mod "A-frame" hotel, where the monorail whizzes through the middle of the main building.

We stayed on the lake side of the Contemporary tower in the fall of 2008. The rooms are well-furnished and quite spacious. The water show at night was decent when viewed from our balcony. My three-year-old son enjoyed it. Overall, the staff was great. The dining is also good, including Wave and Chef Mickey's. - Carl Stovall

We had a theme park view room in the tower on the eleventh floor. It was absolutely gorgeous looking out over the castle. The room was spacious and very soothing with the soft greens, creams and browns. We loved it! Plus the staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and luckily for us have a sense of humor. - Amanda Jenkins

It's been a while since I've stayed there, but for me, the Contemporary's claim to fame is being within an easy walk of the MK. Yeah, it's cool to see the monorail whoosh by, but after you've seen it once... Tower rooms are huge by today's standards. Garden wing rooms are large and comfortable, but it can be quite a hike to the main building. Food options are good, and unique (like the top floor with the unmatched view of MK fireworks). By all means, if you haven't stayed there, it's certainly worth a visit! - Larry Zimmerman
