Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT Information & Questions

[GADisneyDad14]

Sorry, not sure if I missed it. Seems like the Garden Wing rooms have not been updated yet? If so, any idea when? We are coming in August. Not a deal breaker if not done yet, but would be nice (esp the washroom space)

I was told they would be now/right around now. They may have started already, I haven't been by in the last month to see. for sure. But roughly a winter-early spring closure just going by previous room availability online. August should be fine unless they have some material delays, I would imagine.

Thanks. Great to hear that probably will be done by August. Hopefully rooms aren't shut down too long for the reno.

Hi! I had a couple of questions about BLT in the Deluxe Studio. 1) is there a fridge? We have medical supplies that requires refrigeration. 2) Any chance of seeing fireworks from the Lake View rooms?

I was watching some vlogs showing room tours and there are mini fridges. Also it showed that some of the lakeview rooms do have a view of the fireworks. I think it depends.

Thanks! I'll have to find out if those are legit mini fridges or "beverage fridges" which do not keep cold enough; a lot of hotels have switched to those recently.

Can you see the electric water parade? We've never been before!

Not sure how good the view of it is from the rooms but you can see it from the Contemporary area for sure. Hopefully someone else can help you with the fridge.

I just had my TA book a Garden Wing room for the July 4th weekend. Weirdly enough, CR is included in the AP discount that dropped today. Only 10% off but I'm shocked it's even that much. I'm considering GDT or Dolphin as a backup/alternative in case I change my mind, but figured those rooms would go fast and snagged it while I make up my mind.

I was at first disappointed when I saw the Contemporary wasn't included in the general discount but searched my reservation anyhow and saw the AP discount. It took $175 off my two nights at the Contemporary tower room...very psyched!

Can you use the BLT pool if you're staying in the main tower? Also, we have a water view so will we be able to see the EWP from our balcony?

No, CR guests cannot use the BLT pool, although BLT guests can use the CR pools.

Note, they are allowing CR guests to use the BLT pool while CR’s feature pool is closed for renovation early next year.

And to add, yes, from a CR Tower water view room you’ll have a great view of the EWP.

Have fun!

Is there water in the gym at The Contemporary? Or somewhere to fill a water bottle?

Depends on the room, of course, but it's possible - we have just returned from a stay in 7710, which is nominally a Lake View 1BR, but essentially faces due north, and has a decent view of the fireworks if you look left.

Should I be able to see most of the photos on page 1? A lot of them just have "jpg" or "img" and a number where a photo should be

It's that way for me too but then for some reason this whole thread is showing up funny on my computer. All the rest are fine but this on is only showing on the left side of my screen.

The original posts on this thread are quite dated and the service the poster used to host photos no longer works. You’re not missing much - any photos would be pretty outdated at this point. It’s been on my list to make a new thread at some point - when I can get to it!

This was our view from 7912 ( one bedroom lake view)

From what I’ve seen on touring plans, there are some lake view rooms with a side view of MK.
