Disney's 'Pop Century' Resort is aimed at those who wish to stay on-site at Walt Disney World (Florida) without having to blow the budget. It is Disney's newest "value" resort and was opened in 2004. I stayed at the resort with my wife for two weeks in the summer of 2007, having previously stayed twice before at Disney's All-Star Movies complex. (Take a look at my 'All-Star Movies' review to read about Disney's original "value" resort.)
Like all Disney resorts, Pop Century is highly themed. The resort is built around 'Hour Glass Lake' and draws its inspiration from the popular culture of the 1950s to the 1990s. Specific areas in the resort are themed to reflect specific decades; through the music, dances and products that were popular at that time.
Whilst it does not have a full-service restaurant, the resort does have a well stocked "counter service" dining area, which offers a wide variety of hot and cold foods. The resort also has an arcade, gift shop, self-service launderette and several playgrounds, pools and bars.
Car parking is available at Pop Century, but we opted to join the vast majority of guests who took advantage of the regular bus service that linked the resort to the rest of Walt Disney World.
The resort's rooms are housed in buildings on three floors. Our air-conditioned room was of a reasonable size. It contained two double beds, a sink, and a small dining table with two chairs. The bathroom was small, but functional, with a bath/shower and toilet. The room's décor tied in with the pop culture theme adopted by the rest of the resort.
