Contemporary Resort - $165/night - The Contemporary Resort is one of the two original Walt Disney World hotels. It is located between Bay Lake and the Seven Seas Lagoon on the monorail loop that services the Magic Kingdom. It consists of a large A-frame section (the Tower) and two wings (called Garden Wings). The fourth floor of the Tower is known as the Grand Canyon Concourse where you will find a variety of shops and restaurants as well as the monorail station. The Contemporary offers many recreation options and also houses large convention facilities.
As one of the Monorail hotels, the Contemporary Resort is very well located. The Magic Kingdom is only a short monorail ride (or walk) away and getting to Epcot simply requires transfer from one monorail to another one. Also, the rooms at the Contemporary Resort are among the largest at Walt Disney World. There are several dining options within the resort itself and a wide variety of recreational activities are offered.

Animal Kingdom Lodge - $179/night - Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is the resort hotel adjacent to Disney's Animal Kingdom which opened April 16, 2001. This resort recreates the feel of a South African wildlife reserve lodge. Rooms follow the Kraal African village design, a semicircle concept, offering a view of close to 100 grazing animals and 130 birds on the property and in the private Savannahs. Like other Disney resorts, Animal Kingdom Lodge has a distinctive theme carried throughout its architecture, landscape and interior designs. As you drive up to the resort, all you see is a small gathering of huts. The incredible size of the resort is hdiden from the front, so it will be like driving up to a small safari village.
The Lodge is 6 stories tall. You enter the expansive lobby on the 3rd floor of the resort. There is a huge picture window which looks out upon 30 acres of land. From here, you can walk out onto an elevated viewing area (Arusha Rock) and enjoy the roaming animals. All three Savannahs are special areas built specifically for the resort and are separate from Disney's Animal Kingdom. There are over 100 Sand Live Oak trees and 35,000 shrubs in the savannahs. Seeds for many of the plants were supplied from Africa.
