Happy Holidays, Taylor! Welcome to planDisney. We love getting to help Guests get the answers to all of their planning questions and I am happy to help you!
Oh boy! I am so excited for you and your sister to have a Christmas Disneyland visit soon! The
Disneyland Hotel is my absolute favorite resort hotel and I think you will love it. I love taking my time strolling through each building's lobby to see the decor and all the bits of nostalgia for Disneyland Resort's past. There's even more magic right now with all of the holiday decor. I'm happy to share that there should be no problem using a different card for parking than the one you used to pay for your reservation. Upon check-in, you will be asked to add a card on file and you can request for it to be used for your parking.
While I shared that Disneyland Hotel is my favorite place to spend the night on the property, I absolutely love taking a stroll through all of them when I can. I definitely recommend you at least take some time and pop into
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa during the holidays. You'll find this year's gingerbread house and during certain hours there is even a cart available to purchase all kinds of delicious baked goods, including the infamous Mickey Gingerbread.
Taylor, I hope you and your sister have a magical time together and enjoy all the
holiday fun that Disneyland Resort has to offer. See you real soon!
Carrie
