Disney's Contemporary Resort | Walt Disney World, Orlando | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Walt Disney World, Orlando

5 stars

The closest hotel to the Magic Kingdom Park is the height of retro, '70s cool. The monorail enters the lobby through a 'curtain' of air to drop off and pick up. The stylish, gourmet 15th-floor California Grill restaurant offers incredible bird's-eye views over the Magic Kingdom Park (perfect for the evening fireworks), or you can meet your favourite characters in Chef Mickey's Restaurant. If you're not at the park during the day, there's a big swimming pool, tennis courts and even the option of renting a boat and cruising around Bay Lake and Seven Seas Lagoon - and come the end of the day, tired parents can revive themselves in the cocktail lounge.

“The Disney bubble has burst!”

Nov 15, 2025Got2TasteAndSee

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.

“Best Disney resort”

Nov 02, 2025Ccl1234567

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

“Gorgeous views”

Oct 19, 2025susanmZ8005LM

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.
