DK Eyewitness "The monorail passes right through the middle of this concrete resort, where the rooms have recently undergone a complete renovation."
Rough Guide "Disney monorail runs right through the centre of this hotel, which takes its exterior design from the futuristic fantasies of the Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland."
Fodor's "You're paying for location at this sleek, modern, luxury resort next to the Magic Kingdom, as the monorail runs right through the lobby, making park hopping a breeze." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Contemporary is one of Disney’s original resorts, and it’s a favorite among kids both because it’s home to both Chef Mickey’s and the Monorail cuts right through the hotel." Full review
Gayot "Spectacular views and convenient monorail station highlight this futuristic Disney icon."
The Telegraph8.0
"Disney's Contemporary Resort has been extensively refurbished but still includes the monorail track running through the vast, enclosed foyer, providing a genuine Disney feel good experience." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Why book? This classic Disney resort has the best amenity possible—its backyard is the Magic Kingdom." Full review
Frommer's "A midcentury architectural treasure, and indicative of the revolutionary methods that Walt Disney World hoped to pioneer...even if you can’t stay here, this is the best hotel to tour. " Full review
Lonely Planet "The granddaddy of Disney resorts, the Contemporary's futuristic A-frame opened Walt Disney World in 1971 but feels uninspired and disappointing by today's standards." Full review

DK Eyewitness "Often overlooked as it is not on the main thoroughfare, this casual hotel has plenty to offer, including large comfortable rooms, suites for larger families, and a pool."
Frommer's "Nicer than its price point should permit, this hotel is clean, impeccably run, attractively appointed in a Spanish style, and located 10 minutes from Disney." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"This mid-range chain hotel attracts budget-minded families with its location near Downtown Disney, free shuttle to all of the Disney parks, and kid-friendly amenities that include a large outdoor pool." Full review
Fodor's "Very modern lobby, with its glass-roofed, kite-filled tower atrium, muted colors, contemporary furnishings, and linen sheers over floor-to-ceiling windows, is typical of the hotel's low-key elegance." Full review
