    If I have reservations for breakfast at the Grand Californian (and I’m staying on property at Discovery Tower at Disneyland Hotel), with valid admission, may I enter the park using the GCH guest entrance?

    Hello and welcome back to planDisney, Rachel. It sounds like your upcoming visit to the Disneyland Resort is shaping up to be pretty magical. 

    I’m so glad to hear that you have breakfast reservations at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa. I’m guessing (and hoping) that they are for Storytellers Cafe, because I can’t think of a better way to start the day than with delicious food and Mickey and pals. When you’re finished with your breakfast, you should be able to use the hotel’s direct entrance to Disney California Adventure Park without any problems. Keep in mind that during busy times this entrance may be restricted to guests of the hotel. 

    I’m also excited to hear that you will be staying at the Villas at Disneyland Hotel. If you haven’t stayed here yet, you’re going to love it. There are so many magical details in all corners of the tower to explore. My favorite touch is the kiss goodnight that’s almost hidden and can be seen at night on the outside of the tower. It’s worth waiting around for. 

    Rachel, I hope this is helpful as you continue to plan for your visit. Let us know if there’s anything else that we can help with. Until then, here’s wishing you a practically perfect visit to the Happiest Place on Earth!
