Hello, Abbie!
Thank you for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your great question about the
Disneyland Resort. I hope you’re enjoying making plans for your visit to the Happiest Place on Earth!
Only Guests of
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa with valid theme park admission can enter and exit Disney California Adventure Park using the private theme park entrance located in Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. An active Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa room key card must be presented to pass through this entry and exit point. However, the exception to this rule is if you are exploring
Disney California Adventure Park and have a reservation to dine at
Storytellers Cafe or
Napa Rose, in which case you may enter Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa via the private turnstiles in the theme park.
Dining reservations are highly recommended and can be made online or by calling (714) 781-DINE up to 60 days prior to your visit.
I hope this helps you plan, Abbie. Please don’t hesitate to ask any other questions you can dream of as your vacation to the Happiest Place on Earth approaches!
Wishing you magic,
Courtney
