Hi Barry,
Thanks for visiting planDisney! Having Club-level access during your vacation is such a wonderful bonus. The Club Lounge offers so many perks that make a stay both magical and stress-free. I’ve had the privilege of enjoying the Club Lounges at both
Grand Californian and the
Disneyland Hotel, and each experience made my trip even better. Let’s dive into what you can expect at the Disneyland Hotel’s lounge, the High Key Club!
The High Key Club is open from 6:30 a.m. to about 10:00 p.m. A continental breakfast with pastries, cereal, and fruit is served in the morning from 6:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. I love popping in to grab a quick bite or a snack to take with me into the parks to help us power through the morning.
Throughout most of the day (11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.), light snacks are available for Guests to enjoy, including fruit, soda, juices, and chips. I like to stop by the lounge for a midday break. There are outlets throughout the space, and the TV is often playing Disney cartoons. It’s a perfect spot for me and my little one to rest and recharge before heading back into the parks.
In the evening, there is a wine and cheese reception from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Cast Members set out a variety of appetizers, and wine and beer are available at the bar upon request. Later in the night, from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., a dessert bar is offered for Guests to enjoy. The desserts change all the time, so I always make this my last stop before heading to my room.
Guests with Club Level access also receive personal assistance from the Club Staff. They can help answer questions about your stay or assist with additional services. It’s incredibly convenient to talk to a Cast Member in person rather than figuring out who to call by phone.
One of the biggest perks of the High Key Club is the excellent fireworks viewing. You won’t have to navigate the crowds to get back to your hotel room; you can enjoy the show right from the comfort of the lounge. The hotel also broadcasts the music and dialogue from the show, so you won’t miss a moment of the magic. And since the
High Key Club was recently renovated, you can look forward to a beautifully updated and elevated experience!
I hope this information is helpful, Barry. If you have any other questions or need help planning, feel free to reach out to me, or one of my fellow panelists. We’d be happy to share more tips.
Have a magical vacation!
