    I’m planning a trip to Disneyland this summer and staying at the Westin Anaheim. I was wondering if we could walk through the Grand Californian at the end of the night if we have a dinner reservation at Storyteller’s Cafe for dinner.

    Hi there, Jackie, and welcome back to planDisney!

    Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is an amazing property. Even without a hotel reservation, there is much to enjoy as a visitor. My planDisney pals and I had a wonderful time dining alongside our favorite characters at the Storytellers Cafe. You are in for a magical time!

    You can enjoy any of the public areas of the hotel following dinner! The lobby remains open, but there may be other dining options that you can explore if they're still open.

    Bonus Tip: Stop by the Hearthstone Lounge on your way out! Disneyland’s 70th Celebration is still underway, and there is a special cocktail you can enjoy to celebrate. There are also several non-alcoholic specialty drinks offered!

    Jackie, I hope this information is helpful! If you have any additional questions as you plan your vacation, we are always happy to help you here at planDisney.

    Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
