Staying at a Disney World hotel can really transform your vacation, but choosing the right one can be tricky. While Disney’s monorail hotels, like the Contemporary and Polynesian, seem ideal due to their proximity to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, they aren’t necessarily the best choice for everyone.

Despite their convenience to some parks, they are quite far from Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom, requiring a bus ride that could impact your schedule. Plus, these hotels can be crowded, not only with guests but also visitors who come to dine at their renowned restaurants, making for quite a bustling atmosphere.

Transportation can also be a hassle when parks close, as many guests rush to catch the monorail. Waiting it out for a little can ease the crowd situation significantly. Also, the sprawling layout of hotels like the Grand Floridian means you may end up far from amenities, although request preferences can help, although they're not guaranteed.

Monorail resorts are indeed fantastic, so if they’re your dream spot, go for it! However, keep these factors in mind when planning. Do you think monorail hotels live up to the hype, or do you have other favorites at Disney World? Share your thoughts!
