"It's value over frills at the enormous, 2,880-room Disney Pop Century." Full review
DK Eyewitness "One of Disney’s four “value” resorts, this homage to pop culture is as popular with adults as children."
Rough Guide "Devoted to mammoth pop icons from each decade of the second half of the twentieth century, this is Disney’s largest hotel."
Fodor's "Giant jukeboxes, 65-foot-tall bowling pins, an oversized Big Wheel and Rubik's Cube, and other pop-culture memorabilia are scattered throughout the grounds of this value resort." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Part of the family of Disney Value Resorts at Walt Disney World, Disney’s Pop Century Resort is inspired by all things pop culture from the 1950’s through the 1990’s." Full review
Gayot "Pop culture buffs as well as kids will enjoy this trivia-infused maze of eras."
Frommer's "The largest Value resort is a fair choice, with smallish rooms—one king bed or two queens with cubbies instead of closets, one sink, and one mirror, and for dining, a heaving central food court" Full review
Lonely Planet "Each section pays homage to a different decade of the late 20th century, with massive bowling pins that extend beyond the roof and giant Play Doh." Full review
