Is Pop Century a value or moderate resort?

Resort Categories Disney World's Value Resorts include All-Star Movies, All-Star Music, All-Star Sports, Art of Animation, and Pop Century. In the Moderate category, you'll find Caribbean Beach, Coronado Springs, Port Orleans – French Quarter, and Port Orleans—Riverside.



Disney's Pop Century Resort is classified as a Value Resort at Walt Disney World. This category represents Disney's most budget-friendly tier of on-property accommodations, offering smaller room sizes and "Quick Service" dining rather than sit-down restaurants. Despite its Value status, it is one of the most popular resorts in 2026 due to its direct access to the Disney Skyliner gondola system, which provides a convenient and scenic flight to EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios. The resort features oversized, colorful icons representing pop culture trends from the 1950s through the 1990s. While it lacks the high-end amenities of a Moderate or Deluxe resort, its recent room refurbishments—which added queen-sized beds and "Hey Disney!" voice assistants—have made it a top-tier choice for families who want the perks of staying on-site (like Early Theme Park Entry) without the premium price tag.
