Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, John! I’m so glad you brought us another question! Staying at one of the three
Disneyland Resort Hotels is always a treat, and I’d love to help you discover which one is right for you and your family.
Though none of the Disneyland Resort Hotels currently offer a
Frozen or Disney Princess theme, there are plenty of wonderful benefits to staying at each of them. Between
Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel, the
Disneyland Hotel, and
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, there’s a little something for everyone when it comes to budget and the overall Guest experience. Let’s start with my favorite choice – Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. From the moment you walk through the over-sized stained glass doors into the grand lobby, you’ll be enchanted by the luxurious Craftsman-style and elegance. But perhaps my favorite part of this hotel is the convenient, exclusive entrance into Disney California Adventure Park. I love knowing that a pool break or nap are only just a few steps away! And speaking of Disney Princesses, this hotel is also home to
Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures at Napa Rose. This one-of-a-kind Character Dining experience is sure to impress your family. From the three-course breakfast to the personal interactions with Disney Princesses, this unique experience is something you'll never forget!
My family also loves staying at the Disneyland Hotel, located at the end of Downtown Disney District, just past the Downtown Disney District Monorail Station. This is the hotel I grew up staying at, so it holds many special memories for my family and I. My children are obsessed with the
Monorail waterslides, too! This hotel also offers Character Dining for breakfast or dinner at
Goofy’s Kitchen. You can count on the Disneyland Hotel for classic Disney nostalgia, combined with modern sophistication.
Last but not least, Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel is another wonderful option for your April vacation. Located just down the pathway from the Disneyland Hotel, and across the street from Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, this seaside-inspired hotel offers rooftop pools with a waterslide, and Character Dining at
Donald Duck’s Seaside Breakfast or Brunch. Get ready for fun in the sun at this California-cool Resort hotel.
John, have you heard about
Extra Magic Hour yet? It’s one of my favorite perks for staying on-property at a Disneyland Resort Hotel! This early-admission option is available to Disneyland Resort Hotel Guests during every day of their hotel stay, and it allows Guests into Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park one hour before the general public (this schedule varies by day).
I hope this helps, John. Please stop by with any additional questions about your upcoming royal adventures. I can’t wait to see ya’ real soon!
