Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

[Eric872]

Does anyone know what to request for the room when making a booking for the contemporary resort tower with lake view to get the best view? I know that I should request for higher floor but that is about it.

IMO, that’s really it. All the views are the same for the most part and there’s not enough difference from either end of the building to materially matter… so I’d just say high floor and leave it at that.

Have fun!

Thank you. I was not really sure about the Lake view side of the main tower. I know that the theme park view side needed some specific request to get a good view.

FWIW, noticed some new runD warnings on the Steakhouse 71 web page. A good reminder if you have breakfast or CR arrival plans these dates.

Several roads around Disney’s Contemporary Resort may operate under traffic restrictions or be closed to accommodate the following runDisney events.

• January 8 and 9, 2022, from 4:00 AM to 9:00 AM, Walt Disney Marathon
• February 27, 2022, from 4:00 AM to 9:00 AM, Disney Princess Half Marathon

If you plan to dine during these times, please allow for additional travel time. We appreciate your understanding for any inconvenience.

Has anyone seen the list of Halloween activities yet?

Some will also tell you to request a room away from Chef Mickey's (Chef Mickey's is on the southern end of the tower, so you'd request a room in the northern end) because it can get a little noisy at times. The noise never bothered me, but if you like to sleep in or are just more sensitive to loud noises, it might be a consideration.

Pretty good lineup of activities, thanks for sharing.

Have to laugh/cringe at the make your own slime thing - I’m usually down for any Disney activity, but don’t love that one!

I have a question regarding transportation to Epcot. Do they have busses to take you to the park or is it just the monorail?

Just monorail unless the monorail breaks down.

You can catch a bus at MK to BC/YC or BW and go in the back entrance.

Are the boats to WL and FW running from CR yet?

I wonder if anyone who's been recently can tell me if these ears have been spotted?

If you're there, don't make a special trip! I'm hoping against hope they'll be there in three weeks when my trip starts, I'm obsessed with all things Monorail, LOL!

They don’t have any. The two cast members I spoke with didn’t seem to know when they’ll be back in stock.

Thank you so much for checking, I guess it will be up to the Disney gods as to whether I'll find them!
