    This Saturday, we are staying at the Disney Hotel and we have breakfast plans at the Storytellers Cafe in the morning. The first park we reserved is Disneyland. We plan on walking, so how would we get from the hotel to breakfast and then to the park?

    Hiya, Pal. Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question. based on the timing of your question, it appears your visit may have passed. I hope that is not the case!

    Storytellers Cafe is one of my family's favorite places to dine while at the Disneyland Resort. To get there from the Disneyland Hotel, you can walk through Downtown Disney and enter the Grand Californian Hotel on the right-hand side after you pass Disney Wonderful World of Sweets. From there, you will walk through the lobby/Great Hall and veer left toward the pool area. Storyteller's Case is right across from one of the pool entrances. 

    After you enjoy your character dining experience, you will reverse course and head back toward the Downtown Disney District and toward the Esplanade, which is the area between the two theme parks. There is a great photo opportunity with a large 70th anniversary castle display. So be sure to grab a picture there!

    You could also choose to enter Disneyland Park via my favorite way. For this, you will need to walk back towards the Disneyland Hotel and jump on the Monorail at the Downtown Disney Station - just check the Disneyland Mobile App to make sure it is open and running that day (valid theme park ticket and park reservation are required)! The Monorail will drop you right into Tomorrowland, where you are steps away from a ride through space or going on a voyage to find Nemo!

    I hope this information helps, my friend. Please visit us again with any other questions!

    To infinity and beyond,
    Melissa
