Disneyland Hotel Review: Is It Still Worth It?

Disneyland’s hotel in the California city of Anima is a historic property wrapped in old memories, which still have modern contacts to feel magical. For some fans, this is the ultimate way to stay inside the “Disney bubble”, but it does not come cheap.

Even in the off -season (which runs from mid -November, and once again run from January to March), The night room rate revolves around $ 500. At night (like Christmas), night rates can be at the top of $ 800.

Still, the Disneyland Hotel is worth it:

• Disney Deads and Pursuing Old Memories: It is the original hotel near Disneyland, and nowadays it is like a living museum that has modern relief. Retro -autopia cars make beautiful touchs of the best photos of the lapses.

• The theme parks who want to facilitate: If you want to go distance from the parks and get a special acquisition of Disneyland (such as a January 5, 2026, an honorary power lane pass), this is one of the easy -to -property hotels.

• People looking for a more affordable alternative Disney’s Grand California: The Disneyland Hotel is usually cheaper while still feeling special.

• You are looking for a more affordable rate, more space or free breakfast.

• You want a property Disney Hotel with low price. In this case, check the rates in the nearby Pixer Place Hotel.

• You want more and more luxury: Go big with the Grand California hotel. Its location is slightly better. In addition, its lobby is much more impressive – as the rooms are visible.

Disney invited me to experience hotel as part of a two -night stay in May 2025 70th birthday kick -off event. Although Disney founded the bill, these opinions are mine.

Location: Step from city Disney

You can walk from the Disneyland Hotel to the parks, you can walk for about 15 minutes through the city’s Disney, Disney shops and restaurant -made premises, or catch a ride on a monitor, which makes you stand in the heart of Kleinland and cuts your hiking distance.

If you want to change the afternoon in the pool or change the instant organization, the facility is unmatched. Only Disney’s Grand California has defeated him in proximity, but it comes at a sharp price.

Disneyland Hotel’s Best Perk is going away

Disneyland Hotel’s Best Prok is an initial entry, which allows hotel guests to enter the parks 30 minutes ago with ordinary people with admission tickets at the correct theme park. But that parake is getting away soon.

For a long time, this Perk was a great way to experience Disneyland in his relative Ghost Town Farm (and this is a good thing). I used to visit both the most famous rides on the morning of my journey. One morning, most people mounted six fantasyland attractive places before scanning my tickets. If the time is money, it provides a high return.

But this benefit will end on January 5, 2026. Disney is replaced by a job that is significantly less valuable. 2026 Come, guests will only get a stay at the hotel’s guest at the site at the entry site in a honorary power lane (not even per day!). This line skiping privileges can be used on one Multi Pass attractive With correct admission and reservations.

The new advantage is better than the Poke in the eye (and it can be good for those who do not get up quickly). But instead of cutting the line of a ride, I make six rides instead of six rides in 30 pleasant minutes.

Facilities at Disneyland Hotel

Even if you leave the parks, this hotel has plenty of entertainment to provide you with.

The main pond contains two slides that look like monorell trains around Retro Disneyland’s mark.

Younger kids can rotate on the splash pad, which is also designed with an old “steam boot guardian” theme.

There are also some other ponds and whirlpools, which are more calm than the central slide pool.

There is a gym at the Disneyland Hotel, but where the hotel stands, it has fitness classes – some of which are actually located inside the theme park.

Although they cost an extra fee, they feel amazingly a good deal. Only $ 40 of you, you can participate in the Disney California Adventure in Pixar Pierre, such as Basic Band and Madison Balls, such as boot camp -style fitness classes. I have paid a lot about it for a similar berry boot camp class. But I take scenes of Pacher Ghat on the red room any day.

Sadly, my schedule contradicts class times, so I don’t have to check any of them myself, but I will come back.

Food at Disneyland Hotel

It is difficult to eat bad anywhere at the Disneyland Hotel. Here are some highlights:

Trader Sam’s magic is more honest than entertainment than freshness (though they are good). Ordering beverages is an interactive experience. For example, when you order a krakatwa cartoon, the “weather” changes inside the restaurant. There is also a talk of external sitting, which keeps the tropical websites flowing with the ucale performances mostly at night.

Gofi’s kitchen is a role that served Zeni options like PB&J pizza, although it also has traditional (and high quality) buffalo rentals such as spare ribs, crab cocktail and shrimp cake.

This is not cheap ($ 70 to $ 80 per adult), but if it is a preference for meeting characters, it may be worth it. In the parks, it is easy to spend 30 minutes or more inside the parks to meet a role, just being targeted by the “love and sho” behavior. Before he goes down the next baby’s long line, he gets a quick hug and picture from the mini mouse.

In the kitchen of Gofi, you will usually meet four characters, most of which come to your desk and as long as you wish. And especially in slow days, letters can rotate many times on your table.

Quote: I used to work in high school here, but I think if you want to save time from standing in the character lines, the cost is good. Eat food in the Kitchen in the non -parking day, and then use the day you buy Disney Park tickets to make the maximize the rides instead of waiting in the line in the mini house.

Connected by the Trader Sam’s Enchant Tucky Bar, the Tangarova Territs Tropical Bar & Girl is an impressive air -affected menu in a quick service restaurant, which includes Poke Bowl and Teriaki Chicken.

Influenced by the film “Sleep Beauty” (mostly through jungle maps on the walls), the broken spelling lounge is a traditional, quiet hotel bar. Drinks are smart, with the film’s head shake, like “make it blue, make it pink.”

Room: the old is refreshed, but the bones appear to

The Disneyland hotel was opened in 1955 (Disneyland) the same year, and its age appears in its old towers.

Today, the hotel consists of four towers. I lived in one of the old hotel towers in a standard room. Over the past seven decades, these rooms have been updated and they feel clean and bright, which have excellent Disney’s contacts. A large interactive wall on the two beds shows a picture of a fireworks, which lights and a loli plays.

But the sequence still whispers of “vintage”. My bathroom was so tight that two people play a shower and toothbrush hallway tetors. If you plan to spend the whole day in the parks, the room works well. If you want an afternoon retreat for a family, the space may feel tight.

On the contrary, the Villas of the Disneyland Hotel (the latest tower) feel different. Each of the 344 rooms is very modern, with a layout that is more and more space and everywhere with the USB ports, thinking and touching.

The rooms ranged from small studios to two adults from three bedroom villas that sleep 12. Even in the smallest rooms of these “villas”, you will find kitchens and spillet bathrooms, which make it more effective in shared space.

This tower was made as part of it Disney Vacation ClubWhich is the version of Disney’s Time Share Program. But even if you are not a DVC member, you can pay cash for the room here, available.

Price: Pixi-Dist Premium

This hotel is expensive. For many passengers, it is difficult to justify premium when there are excellent, non-Disney options-including nearby hats, which often cost little, breakfast and have family friendly room setting.

The Disneyland Hotel’s restaurants and bars are advanced, but you do not have to be a guest to use them, which further eliminates the “mandatory stay” math. The highest amount of money, the initial entry, goes to 2026, which further reduces the price.

After 2026, only two things – one of the old memories and the closest walks of the parks you can get – be the main reason for paying the premium.
