We stayed over one night and I noticed that we were placed in a room with smaller beds. The interior materials were cheap making the overall experience lackluster. The dining hall was staged as a food court. The whole experience was cheap at an expensive rate. My daughter was playing with the safe and it locked on her (accessible to... More

We stayed in the Lion King Suite. We had high expectations based on what was shown on the disney website and we had a terrible experience. There was no valet, no one around to help with our luggage (my sister literally had to chase someone down), no direction on where to go, no smiles at the door, no nothing! You... More

We stayed in a Little Mermaid room for one night. When you take away all the Disney decorations, you have a typical tourist hotel room like you would find at any Interstate exit Day's Inn. It's the decorations, welcome card, and fancily folded towels that make the room special. The beds and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was an ok... More

Love this hotel! If you are not getting a suite, the little mermaid buildings are your only option and they are somewhat of a hike to the bus stop after you've been walking the parks a few days. The in room fridge is a great addition that the all stars and pop century do not have. The beds are more... More

We chose the Art of Animation because of the location and the fact that it was a newer establishment. The kids LOVED it. We stayed in the little mermaid part of the hotel. It was a decent walk but nothing we couldn't handle. The nemo pool in the middle of the complex was pretty neat. The pool was the perfect... More

My extended family took a [too short/tried to jam in too much] vacay at WDW in September 2012, shortly after AoA opened. We reserved 2 suites in the Finding Nemo building, directly opposite the large swimming pool. Our group: 2 seniors (78, 80), 7 adults (55, 49, 35, 31, 27, 26, 22), 1 teen and 2 kids (10 and 3)....

We stayed in a Little Mermaid room for two nights in late April. Check-in was quick and easy. We were in the Ariel building. I didn't think the walk from the main building was quite as extreme as some reviews have made it seem. We had no issues with noise from the adjacent rooms. We could hear outside noise a... More

Staying at the Disney's Art of Animation Resort is a must for families with 4-6 people. Rooms are well equiped with fridge and microwave. Master suite with own TV and bath is a big plus. Great location to all Disney resorts and other Orlando attractions with easy access to I-4. Provided bus transportation to Disney Resorts is excellent with only... More

We recently stayed for the weekend at the Disney's Art of Animation Resort. We booked the Finding Nemo Suite. I must say we were impressed with the accomodations. The suite consists of one private bedroom with a queen bed and its own bathroom and a living/dining area with a sofa sleeper and a murphy bed. There was a bathroom in... More
