The Contemporary Resort is one of Walt Disney World’s most recognizable hotels, famous for its A-frame design and monorail that glides right through the lobby. For families, it’s not just a hotel—it’s part of the Disney magic.
🏨 Why It Works So Well for Families
- Unbeatable Location: A short walk or one monorail stop to Magic Kingdom makes it incredibly easy for families with strollers or young kids.
- Chef Mickey’s Character Dining: Have breakfast or dinner with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto—no park ticket required.
- Spacious Rooms: Larger than most Disney resort rooms, making it easier for families to spread out.
- Pools & Recreation: A zero-entry pool, waterslide, and cabanas give kids plenty of space to play while parents relax.
- Fireworks Views: Theme park view rooms let families watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks right from their balcony.
👨👩👧👦 Tips for Parents
- Chef Mickey’s Reservations: Book well in advance—it’s one of Disney’s most popular restaurants.
- Monorail Fun: Even if you’re not headed to the parks, kids love riding the monorail just for fun.
- Walking Path Shortcut: If the monorail is busy after fireworks, the walking path to Magic Kingdom is stroller-friendly and quick.
- Splurge-Worthy Dining: California Grill (on the top floor) is fine dining with panoramic park views—perfect for families celebrating something special.
✨ Final Thought: The Contemporary Resort blends convenience with magic. If your family wants to maximize Disney time while staying in comfort, this resort is one of the best choices.
