Virgin Holidays View
The closest hotel to the MAGIC KINGDOM Park is the height of retro, '70s cool. The monorail enters the lobby through a 'curtain' of air to drop off and pick up. The stylish, gourmet 15th-floor CALIFORNIA GRILL restaurant offers incredible bird's-eye views over the MAGIC KINGDOM Park. Meet your favourite characters in CHEF MICKEY'S RESTAURANT, while tired parents can revive themselves in the cocktail lounge. There's a big swimming pool, tennis courts and even water-skiing on the lake.
