Heya Britt!
Welcome to planDisney and thanks for stopping by with your question! We're happy to see you here and would be glad to help you plan what sounds like a fun family trip to the Disneyland Resort. Which Disneyland Resort Hotel did you select? My favorite will always be the original
Disneyland Hotel! I love how that property does such a wonderful job of honoring the Resort's rich history.
I recently spoke to a Cast Member about this question and was informed that your sister will definitely be allowed to visit your hotel room with her kids for a mid-day nap. If you won't be accompanying them, then they'll need a copy of your hotel room key to access your room. If they link your hotel reservations to their Disney account, then your sister will be able to
Unlock Your Room Door with the Disneyland Mobile App. Tell them to be sure to put up that "Do Not Disturb" sign!
When my kids were young, we were sometimes able to lull them to sleep inside the Parks. Some of my favorite nap locations for young Mouseketeers include: the
Disneyland Railroad (my son has slept through many laps on this attraction),
Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room,
Pirate's Lair on Tom Sawyer Island,
Animation Academy, and the
Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. But nothing beats the comfort of your hotel room!
The
Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival will be going on over your visit. Be sure to catch the original
Soarin' Over California as it makes a return during the Festival! It's a classic and will always be near and dear to my heart.
Fun Fact: The music of Soarin' Over California was composed by Academy Award winner Jerry Goldsmith and was one of his final projects. Goldsmith also composed the score for the animated version of
Mulan, which was released in 1998.
I hope that this gives you some comfort, Britt, and that it makes the visit more pleasant for your sister. If you need anything else before your trip, please come on back and see us again. We'd love to hear from you!
Wishing You a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow!
