We stayed at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort for two nights. The check-in process was fast and smooth, and the staff at the front desk was friendly and helpful.
On the downside, the food court experience was disappointing. The service there was not good, and the area also felt somewhat dirty, which was unexpected for a Disney property.
Our room, however, was a positive surprise. We were upgraded to a larger room than the standard one, and it was spacious and comfortable. The room was themed after the Disney movie Cars, which was fun and very well done, especially for families. That said, the building itself had a strange odor in the hallways that caught our attention and took away from the overall experience.
One major negative point was housekeeping. Our room was not cleaned during our stay, which we found unacceptable, especially considering that this is not a cheap hotel. It’s hard to understand why daily room cleaning is not provided at this price level.
On the positive side, the hotel’s location is excellent, very close to the parks, and the bus transportation to and from the parks is very efficient and convenient.
Overall, the resort has great theming, good rooms, and an excellent location, but improvements are definitely needed in housekeeping and food court service.

This resort exceeded all of my expectations. This resort is divided into four sections. Cars, finding Nemo, Lion King, and little mermaid. This resort has bus transportation and even better it has access to the skyliner transport system. This made it easy to go anywhere we needed to go. The rooms were themed on the section you were in. We loved the finding Nemo characters design and decorations. Some of our family were in the cars section and it was just as amazing and fun. This resort has a centrally located dining area and a centrally located Disney store. The pools are very large and extremely nice with lots of seating and shade if you want it. A bar is located close to the largest pool. The rooms are large and the bathrooms are well equipped and comfortable to use. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it for others.

I know a lot of people really enjoy this hotel but after staying here two nights I had to give an honest review.
Upon arrival the tv didn’t work, nor did the fridge. The room had spider webs hanging from the fire sprinkler to the wall. The room felt dark and dirty with marks all over the walls. The charging ports didn’t work. The rooms are very small and unless you’re ONLY sleeping I would avoid this hotel. We moved over to Carribean beach resort and were MUCH happier there. I’d never stay here again and I suggest you don’t either.

1st time visiting and I must say the location was pretty nice and covinient. Stayed in the Nemo section and its close to the gondola that'll take you to Hollywood Studios or epcot. The Bus station that will take you to Animal and Magic Kingdom is also not far. It has a cafeteria so it comes in handy if you want to have breakfast or dinner there. There's also a laundry room so thats a plus. The rooms were well clean and stocked with disposable utensils, mini fridge and microwave. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at Art of Animation Studios.

If you’re worried about this hotel being a value you have nothing to fear! We stayed in a cars suite and it was fantastic. Very, very clean, great air conditioning, comfortable beds and plenty of hot water for showers. It is very busy with kids but we took a preteen and teen and it was great! The skyliner is such a luxury and adds so much magic. Two bathrooms is a luxury!!! This resort is the best bang for your buck on property for space, beds, bathrooms and kitchenette. All the Cast members have been excellent as well :) 10/10 from a frequent traveler!
