Hi Andrew. You can't beat the Contemporary for convenient location! The monorail goes right through it, which the kids love, and we enjoy the short walk to the Magic Kingdom. The rooms have been updated and are awesome! The lake is gorgeous, and the facilities, including pool-side activities, shops and restaurants are fantastic. You are also a quick monorail ride to the Polynesian and Grand Floridian Resorts, and a boat ride to Wilderness Lodge and Fort Wilderness, where you can enjoy their restaurants and dinner shows as well.
We love the characters at Chef Mickey's. The buffet has something for everyone, it would certainly be a fun spot for a Disney Christmas dinner. It is extremely popular, and Christmas is a very busy time, so be sure to book in advance. You can do so by clicking
