    What time is check-in at your hotels?

    Greetings, Tania! Thanks for visiting planDisney. Your visit is almost here - you must be giddy with excitement!

    Check-in time for all three of the Disneyland Resort Hotels is 3:00 PM. However, you may pre-register with the Front Desk or in the Disneyland mobile app if you arrive before the standard check-in time. In my experience, Cast Members will do anything they can to accommodate early arrivals! 

    Based on your question, I can't tell which of the three amazing Disneyland Resort Hotels you'll be staying at. However, I want to remind you of the fantastic dining options you can find at each. At the Disneyland Hotel, be sure to check out Palm Breeze Bar and Trader Sam's. Palm Breeze has delicious flatbread pizzas, and the Trader Sam's tempura green beans are my favorite snack, possibly ever! At the Grand Californian Hotel, be sure to try the French Onion Soup at Hearthstone Lounge and grab a sweet treat and coffee from the Grand Californian Great Hall Cart. And, last but not least, head over to Great Maple at Pixar Place for the mindblowing Fried Chicken & Doughnuts or Parmesan Truffle Fries. You can't go wrong with any of the hotel dining options, and, bonus, many take advanced dining reservations!

    Tania, I also want to mention that at the end of your stay, check-out is before 11:00 AM. However, the fun doesn't have to stop there! Drop your luggage at Bell Services and go enjoy a day in the parks, splash at the pool, or find a last bit of magic with some Character Dining at one of the hotels. The options are endless!

    If you have any other questions, please feel free to visit planDisney again, Tania. We love to help!

    See ya real soon,
    Melissa
