We stayed 12/31/05 - 01/03/06. We were assigned the wrong rooms. The rooms were dirty. Dirt, crumbs and dust in the nooks and crannies. The room had a putrid smell. The service was terrible with long slow moving lines at checkin, concierge, restaurants etc. Upon checkout we were overcharged. We had to put up with insults and disrespect to get the overcharges rescinded. Other than the location you can do much better outside the parks.

Once the Grand Dame of Disney resorts, the Contemporary is showing her wrinkles. Parking was horrible, the lines for anything were long, the food overpriced,but worst of all-the rooms were BAD.
Decorated in some unknown style, the rooms were an offense to the eye. Small, poorly lit, and dank-they were no match for the price. However here you ...

A Family Fantasy Come True
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/22/05
The Contemporary at WDW can not be beat for its location to the magic of Disney. A quick hop on the monorail takes you to the most wonderful place on earth--the Magic Kingdom! The hotel has a large pool area that is a great place to relax after a long day at the parks. The slide is fun for kids and adults. The shopping area is sure to offer ...
Disney World's Contemporary Resort did not impress me at all. I liked the idea of staying so close to the Magic Kingdom for the nightly fireworks. However, we barely got a glimpse of them because we were unable to get a room on that side of the hotel and the observation area was extremely crowded each night. The hotel is one of the oldest in ...

disappointed
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/25/05
I have waited many years to stay at this Disney property, mainly due to the close proximity of the hotel to Magical Kingdom. Boy, was I disappointed. The facility itself is quite old and in need of a makeover. While in the "quiet pool," I noticed paint(?) peeling from the sides. My greatest concern, however, is security. When ...

VERY NICE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/08/05
WE DID NOT STAY IN THIS HOTEL BUT VISITED FOR THE CONCOURSE STEAKHOUSE RESTAURANT AND GIFT SHOPS. WE TOOK THE MONORAIL THERE WHICH WAS A NICE RELAXING RIDE. THE LOBBY AREA LOOKED NICE & THE FOOD SERVICE WAS GREAT. THE MONORAIL TRANSPORTATION OPTION FROM THIS HOTEL IS A BIG PLUS! MUCH BETTER THAN THE DISNEY BUS WHERE YOU ARE PACKED IN LIKE A SARDINE!

The Contemporary is great for the whole family. This is the only Hotel we stay at, and we have been going since 1989. We always stay on the 12th floor,the ease of going to the park is great. Sometimes we walk over to the Magic Kingdom instead of taking the monorail! Our room has always been clean, and the staff very helpful and friendly! Two thumbs up! We are heading back there again over Thanksgiving. We are counting down!!!!

Words cannot describe!!!

The staff is always diligent, respectful, helpful, cheerful and every other positive word you can think of to describe great customer service. Heck, ...

just another hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/20/04
Bed too hard, no coffee pot, hair in the shower. Not a place I would stay again. Way too expensive just for convenience.
