Greetings, David, and welcome to planDiney! I adore the Disneyland Resort hotels. Each has its own theme and set of unique features, along with shared benefits that Guests can expect regardless of which Resort hotel they choose. Club Level rooms are offered at all three hotels and are a fantastic way to enhance your stay. Let's get into it!
Club Level rooms include all the same amenities as standard rooms, with the added benefits of nightly turndown service, personal assistance from the Concierge Staff, and access to a Concierge Lounge. The lounges are immaculately themed, offer plenty of places to relax, and also host complimentary continental breakfast, snacks, dessert, and adult beverages at different parts of the day. There are some slight differences between the three hotels:
- Disneyland Hotel: A new Concierge Lounge called High Key Club recently debuted at the hotel, and it is a stylish, nostalgic spot. There is beautiful artwork and amazing views. In fact, Guests staying in Club Level rooms at this hotel can come to the lounge to watch the Disneyland fireworks. The music from the show is played throughout the lounge for an immersive experience. Nothing beats a cozy, indoor spot to watch the fireworks, especially knowing it's a short trip back to the room afterwards.
- Pixar Place Hotel: The Creator's Club has the same creative Pixar theming as the rest of the hotel. This exclusive lounge also hosts weekly culinary demonstrations. One unique option for Club Level at this hotel is that you can choose a room with a patio and easy access to the rooftop pool deck. This would be really convenient if you wanted to head to the deck to watch the Disneyland fireworks – the view is excellent and the music from the show is broadcast over speakers, too.
- Grand Californian Hotel: The Veranda is a beautiful, luxurious lounge with an impeccable design. There is outdoor seating on a balcony at this location as well. This lounge offers an afternoon tea in addition to the other food and drinks available at other times of the day. The Disney Parks Blog announced that a second lounge area will debut in 2026, which is certainly exciting!
David, as a Disneyland Resort hotel Guest, you'll enjoy wonderful perks regardless of what room you choose. Early Entry allows you to enter a designated theme park 30 minutes before the park opens to everyone. The hotels are also conveniently close to the theme parks, with special entrances available for hotel Guests. There are
activities exclusively for hotel Guests, too, such as complimentary movie nights and hotel tours.
Fitness classes can be booked for an additional fee. Doesn't paddleboard yoga or an in-park power walking workout sound fun?
I can write about Disneyland Resort hotels all day! David, regardless of which one you choose and what room you decide on, you will have a fantastic time. If you have any other questions as you continue scoping out a future trip, please reach out. We're always happy to help here at planDisney!
Your pal,
