Niggling MERMAID ROOMS AT DISNEY'Southward Art OF ANIMATION RESORT
Notation: guests at Disney's Art of Animation Resort are eligible for Disney World's Early Entry program, and for early admission to its paid private organization for access to sure rides, merely Not for its Extended Evening Hours.
Disney'southward Art of Animation Resort has two very different types of rooms.
One room type, Family Suites, fills the 7 most convenient buildings at Art of Animation.
These spaces slumber six in over 500 square feet, and cost $450 to almost $800 a dark including tax. See this for more on these Family Suites.
The other room type, standard rooms in the Little Mermaid, is the subject of this page.
Standard rooms at Art of Animation are found in its three to the lowest degree convenient Little Mermaid buildings, and sleep four in total beds in about 260 square feet. These rooms cost $180-$330 a night including taxation—less than one-half of what the Family Suites are going for.
These ii room types are profoundly dissimilar—anyone reserving 1 but expecting the other is in for a shock.
And you tin't really compare them to each other. The relevant comparison for standard rooms at Art of Animation is standard rooms at the other 4 Value Resorts: Popular Century, All-Star Movies, All-Star Sports, and All-Star Music.
Based on this comparison, standard rooms at Art of Blitheness outshine the alternatives, (except possibly queen bed rooms rooms at Popular Century, All-Star Movies, and All-Star Music) and are this site's well-nigh highly recommended value resort standard rooms. They have the highest kid appeal of whatsoever value resort—for both boys and girls—and this child appeal outweighs for nearly all families their slight deficits in convenience.
That said, Little Mermaid rooms average $eighty/night more than All-Star rooms, and $40/night more than rooms at Pop…and in the summertime approach the prices of moderate resorts. So you are definitely paying for the child entreatment in that location rooms present.

REVIEW: Lilliputian MERMAID STANDARD ROOMS AT DISNEY'Due south ART OF Blitheness RESORT
Resorts are ranked on this site for kickoff time visitors based first on their kid appeal, and and then on their convenience.
On this footing, Disney's Art of Animation Resort is the all-time value resort for kickoff fourth dimension family visitors.
Child Entreatment. Several of the palatial resorts–notably, the Wilderness Lodge, Fauna Kingdom Lodge, and Polynesian Resort–have spectacular child appeal. None of the moderates do.
All of the value resorts–Disney'south All-Star Sports, All-Star Music, and All-Star Movies, its Popular Century Resort, and Fine art of Blitheness–have terrific kid appeal.
This appeal comes from the arroyo to theming they all share: brilliant and vibrant exteriors, framing much larger than life objects of interest to kids. These objects reinforce that these resorts were designed for the sake of kids…and non necessarily for adults!
While Art of Blitheness has taken this theming to a whole new level, both in exteriors and interiors, the exterior theming in the Little Mermaid area is similar in scope and scale to what yous will find at the other value resorts.
Every bit yous walk into the Little Mermaid area, you lot are greeted by Prince Eric.
And so you lot'll discover three large accommodation buildings surrounding a puddle.
Exterior of each of the three buildings at that place's a four-story statue of a character from the motion-picture show:
Triton exterior of Edifice nine…
…Ursula outside Building vii…
…and Ariel herself exterior of Building 8.
As at the other value resorts, attached to the facades of the buildings are other reminders of the theming.
What distinguishes the Fiddling Mermaid area form the other value resort standard room areas is the pervasive theming inside the rooms themselves.
For instance, the Trivial Mermaid Standard rooms are meant to be "under the sea."
So the carpeting mimics the sea flooring, and the window curtain extends the sea floor and brings undersea plants to it…
Every bit a result, Art of Animation has the deepest level of Disney theming ever created in a hotel. If your kids similar the movies information technology represents–Nemo, Niggling Mermaid, Lion Male monarch, Cars–they are going to love this place.
Convenience. Convenience on this site ways transportation convenience in carrying out its itineraries. Past that standard, Art of Animationoverall is tied with Popular Century Resort for existence the nearly convenient value resort.
Amidst the values it shares with Pop Century both the nearly convenient buses and the only value resort access to Disney'due south new Skyliner gondola system, which–later on a transfer at Caribbean area Beach–offers fun, simple routing to Epcot and Disney'due south Hollywood Studios.
Nevertheless, the standard rooms at Fine art of Animation are the least user-friendly of all this hotel's offerings.
Encounter the map. The standard rooms at Art of Blitheness are all in the Fiddling Mermaid section, highlighted with the orange circle.
These rooms are past far the least convenient offerings at Fine art of Animation, existence five minutes farther abroad (at worst) from the Skyliner station, fundamental pool, food court and bus stop than other (Family unit Suite) Art of Animation options.
For virtually families, this actress few minutes won't affair; but those with mobility issues might want to consider Pop Century, the next most highly ranked value resort, especially if they are targeting a summer visit or need the queen beds or coffeemakers establish in its refurbed rooms.
At Pop, as at the other value resorts, rooms can be found that are much more than convenient to the key resort services.
THE Lilliputian MERMAID ROOMS THEMSELVES
Little Mermaid room layouts at Art of Animation are pretty much identical what was formerly found in standard rooms in the other value resorts.
Still, refurbs at Pop Century, All-Star Movies, and All-Star Music have added queen beds and coffeemakers to those resort. Then the only clear comparable these days is All-Star Sports, which like these rooms still has full beds and no coffeemakers–merely fifty-fifty All-Star Sports may be getting queens soon.
See the floor plan. These rooms have two full beds, a table and chairs, a dresser with a TV on meridian and a mini-refrigerator inside, and a divided bathroom.
And equally in the other value resorts, this room is nigh equally pocket-sized as information technology can be and nevertheless fit two beds.
Notation that some says that these rooms are slightly larger than other value resort rooms, at 277 foursquare feet, rather than 260.
In fact, these rooms are no bigger than those at the other value resorts.
My tape measure got all the major dimensions every bit inside an inch or so of those at Pop Century. For this room to have 17 more square anxiety, information technology would need to have been a foot and a half longer, or 9 inches wider, or 6 inches more in both dimensions, or some such, than All-Star Music.
My measuring isn't perfect, just I would have noticed that big a dimensional difference…so I've got information technology as 260 foursquare anxiety, same as the other value resorts.
All-time AND WORST PLACES TO STAY IN THE LITTLE MERMAID AREA OF ART OF ANIMATION
The Petty Mermaid Section of Art of Animation has 3 buildings, numbered 7, eight and 9.
Seven is the best, and 8 the worst. Specifically, enquire for an Hourglass Lake view room in building 7 closer to the Lion King surface area. This will give y'all the shortest walk, least pool racket, and best views.
Altitude. Building viii is furthest from the Skyliner, central services and coach stop, Buildings seven and 9 closer.
Noise. Unlike in the Family unit Suites at Art of Animation, corridor noise is not much of an issue in the Little Mermaid section. This is considering there are twice every bit many corridors, none is walled on all sides, none is air conditioned, and thus none has a real describe as a pathway to the resort'due south central services.
Noise, to the extent it is an consequence, comes from the pool. I-3rd of rooms in building eight, and i-sixth of rooms in each of 7 and 9, face up the pool.
Views. Two thirds of the rooms in both buildings 8 and nine have parking lot views; at that place are no bad views in building vii, though every bit noted above the pool-view rooms in 7 can be noisy.
Fine art of Animation and Pop Century are the only value resorts on a lake—Hourglass Lake separates the 2. While there may exist some obtuse views of Hourglass Lake from a few of the pool-facing rooms of building 8, a third of building 7 rooms take a view of the lake.
All in, building 7 is the best and 8 the worst of the Trivial Mermaid buildings. So enquire for a lake-facing building 7 room, as near the Lion Rex area as possible. This volition requite y'all the shortest walk, least noise and best view!
The best rooms specifically are 7513-7524, 7613-7624, 7713-7724, and 7813 to 7824.
