"A "New Orleans theme radiates through" this "wonderful", "relaxing" "hidden gem" of a resort offering "lovely" grounds with "cobblestone streets"."
Fodor's
"Ornate Big Easy–style row houses with wrought iron–clad balconies cluster around magnolia-shaded squares in this relatively quiet resort, which appeals to couples more than families."

"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."

"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."

"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."
