Hey there, hi there, Don! Welcome to planDisney. We are happy to have you drop by with your question for us.
I am so excited to hear that you will be heading to Disneyland Resort very soon! It sounds like you are also staying at one of the Disneyland Resort Hotels. If you are staying at a
Disneyland Resort Hotel with a room-only reservation, the balance is usually not due until you arrive for check-in. If you would like to pay your balance before arrival, you will need to call the
Hotel Reservations line to make a payment over the phone.
Did you know that you can actually start the check-in process either on the Disneyland website or
Disneyland app a couple of days ahead of your visit with
Direct-to-Room Service? There, you can set up preferences, let them know when you plan to arrive, and set up a payment method for the balance due and for incidentals. I like to check in this way because then I can bypass the front desk, check my luggage with Bell Services, and then head straight into the parks or
Downtown Disney District. When your room is ready, you will get a text with your room information. It makes everything so easy!
Don, thanks so much for stopping by! I hope your visit is full of magic!
