"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."

"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."

"Guests at this resort are stranded on a breathtaking Pacific island paradise, with a lagoon-style pool and play area, Emeril’s Tchop Chop restaurant (a must for adults), and superior service."
Rough Guide
"The comfortable rooms here are decked out in bamboo to enhance the “tropical” theme, while the kids will enjoy the lagoon-style pool. $289."

"Competing just below its siblings Hard Rock Hotel and the Portofino Bay Hotel, this savvy South Pacific wannabe is the most laid back of the three."

"Orlando is no stranger to themed hotels and the Royal Pacific, a member of the Loews hotels, may be one of the most unique."
