Hey there, Gail! Welcome back to planDisney, and Welcome Home, neighbor! It's always so nice to chat with a fellow Disney Vacation Club Member. I'm so glad that you stopped by with your question!
Using my
Disney Vacation Club Membership for a trip to
Disneyland Resort is on the top of my must-do list! As a huge fan of Walt Disney, Disney history and Disney theme parks, a trip to Disneyland Resort while staying at Disneyland Hotel sounds like an absolute dream come true. How exciting to be planning such a magical trip, Gail!
When using Reservation Points to book a stay at either
Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel or
Disneyland Hotel, you will be booking a deluxe Resort Hotel room. The rooms at both Resort Hotels sleep up to 5 adults. At Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel, some rooms have one king bed and one queen sofa sleeper, while some rooms have two queen beds and one day bed. A Cast Member at Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel informed me that the rooms are approximately 365 square feet. At Disneyland Hotel, your room could have either a king bed or two queen beds, and my internet search is showing that the square footage of the standard Resort hotel rooms varies from approximately 365-415 square feet. While a Cast Member was unable to verify the exact square footage, she was able to confirm that the room sizes can vary in configuration and thus, vary slightly in square footage. No matter which Resort Hotel you choose or the size of the rooms, you are sure to have BIG fun!
Gail, go ahead and check out the Points Charts for both
Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel and Disneyland Hotel, and when you're ready to check availability and book, just
give Member Services a call. Did you know that you do not have to pay the $95 transaction fee to book at Disneyland Resort?! BONUS! If it were me, I'd put that extra cash towards a delicious meal at
Lamplight Lounge. That restaurant looks amazing!
Gail, I'm wishing you happy planning and magical adventures with your most magical Membership! Please stop by any time with any of your Disney vacation planning questions.
I hope to see ya real soon!
