Hi Stephani! Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney.
The incidentals hold is a one-time hold at
Disneyland Resort Hotels, rather than per night. As you said, prices are subject to change, but currently, the hold at all of the hotels is $250. Of course, if you don't have any incidentals charged back to your room, it will be refunded back to your credit card at the conclusion of your stay.
Our favorite place to stay at Disneyland Resort is
Disneyland Hotel. We love its retro styling and its location close to the Disneyland Monorail, which takes you right into Tomorrowland in Disneyland Park. Plus, the dining options are some of our favorites. For example,
Tangaroa Terrace Tropical Bar & Grill for a quick breakfast or afternoon refresher and
Goofy's Kitchen for a classic Character Dining Experience. All of the Disneyland Resort Hotels are convenient though, so it can be hard to choose!
I hope this helps.
Elizabeth
