I currently have a TPV room at the Contemporary booked for my upcoming March trip. It will be just my boyfriend and me. Staying at a monorail resort is a bucket list trip of mine and I had hoped that the Epcot monorail would be back up and running with the return of park hopper. However, the Epcot monorail is suspended indefinitely and I’m not sure if it would be running for our trip in a couple of months. But, the option of resort-hopping around the monorail loop intrigues me as we can grab food from the Poly and the GF. I booked TPV hoping fireworks would return as well in some capacity, but I also just love to sit on the balcony with my breakfast and coffee and have a nice view. The convenience of walking to/from MK seems great as well.
I’m thinking of holding out for any announcements closer to my date, but my ultimate favorite resort is the Riviera and I wouldn’t want to miss out on a room there if I end up not happy with the lack of offerings from the Contemporary. We’ve stayed there twice now and have gotten lucky with pixie dust upgraded rooms both times. We also love the skyliner and the ease of just hopping on and going to/from Epcot. We go to all parks but with the return of park hopper, we’ll probably go to Epcot every afternoon/night and use our current Epcot reservation for elsewhere.
With all of that in mind, my question is: Should I keep TPV at the Contemporary or book the Riviera for $50 more for a deluxe studio with a preferred view? We’ve never stayed at the Contemporary and my parents stayed there many years ago so any input is appreciated!
