Disney’s Contemporary Resort Monorail Station

I liked the convenience of having the monorail right there in the resort. I loved the idea of the monorail, thought once you are there, you realize is not as big of a deal as you thought. It’s simply a wagon full of sweaty people, tired kids and not enough space for everyone.

Headed into Epcot– not that much of a wait — if you’re staying at the contemporary there are not that many people that get off here– they are passing through so if you think that they’ll let everyone through to get on the monorail — they might not — depends on how many people get off.

The Monorail, it’s an iconic transportation system at Disney. Where else can you board this train like thing and go around to different resorts and finally end up at the Magic Kingdom or Epcot. Sadly, I didn’t realise the loop went the wrong way, and i“d have to go to Epcot before MK and thus I didn’t board, We opted out and walked the 10 minutes to the Magic Kingdom. Still, it’s really nice that this is convieniently located in the hotel.

Best way to get to Disney if you know a cast member. The parking is easy to get in and out of. The monorail is quick and the station is air conditioned!

Fast service to all resorts via monorail. The keep it fairly clean for as many people that ride this thing on a daily basis. I’m always in awe at how good Disney does free transportation.
They do a great job!

No matter how many times I visit Disney, I LOVE this location and I LOVE the fact that the monorail goes thru the Contemporary resort.
It is hard to believe that this is 40 years old, but it seems as good as new to me and has stood the test of time and still has the magic.

This Monorail Station at the Contemporary Resort get 5 full stars from me because, not only do we use it all the time, but it’s also a very fond childhood memory of mine.
I was 10 years old when I first saw Disney World. Seeing the monorail actually going right through a hotel was just the coolest thing in the world to me at the time! I swore I’d grow up and be able to ride it anytime I wanted. And well, for the most part, that dream of mine came true.
Often when we go to the Parks, we’ll park at Downtown Disney and hop a bus to the Contemporary and then catch the Monorail either to The Magic Kingdom or to the Transportation and Ticket Center to get on another Monorail heading into Epcot. This saves on that HUGE parking fee that Disney charges because there is no fee to park at Downtown Disney.
The Monorail is located on the 4^th floor. Once you know that, it’s easy enough to find.
The wait is generally not very long unless it’s early in the morning when the Parks are opening or late at night when the Parks are closing.
