Walt Disney World Resorts Contemporary Resort | Rooms | Dining | Recreation | Transportation | Resort Map
 If
you find the idea of staying in a resort that is within walking
distance of the Magic Kingdom appealing, then the Contemporary Resort
is for you! This massive A-frame tower with two Garden wings was
one of the two original WDW resorts. An interesting fact about
the Contemporary is that, the rooms were prefabricated. They were
built off-site and hoisted into place once the hotel was built.
The Grand Canyon Concourse is the name for the area of the interior
of the 14 story concourse. Here you will find the monorail
station, shops, restaurants and a 90 foot high Mary Blair mural
with a Southwestern theme. The futuristic atmosphere of the Contemporary Resort is obvious
when you see the Monorail glide through the A-frame structure.
Monorail access is only one of the many transportation options for
the guests here. Bus transportation is available to take guests
to parks other than the Magic Kingdom, as well as to Downtown Disney
Marketplace, and watercrafts carry guests to the Wilderness Lodge and
Fort Wilderness. The spectacular views are yet another advantage of staying at the Contemporary. Most guest rooms enjoy beautiful views of the Seven Seas Lagoon or Bay Lake. And one of the best places to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks is from the California Grill Restaurant on the 15th floor. The
Electrical Water Pageant that glides across Bay Lake nightly can
be viewed from the beach area of the Resort. In 1991, a meeting
and convention center was added to the Contemporary Resort. It features
90,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 42,300 square foot
ballroom.
