Hi there, Fairuz!
Welcome to planDisney. I am happy to answer your question! Staying at a Disneyland Resort hotel always adds extra magic to my trips to Disneyland Resort. The rooms are perfectly themed, the pools are "splashtastic", and the grounds are lovely.
All Disneyland Resort hotels offer
Early Entry, allowing Guests to enter one of the designated theme parks 30 minutes early to enjoy select attractions, dining, and shopping locations. Disneyland Resort has two theme parks:
Disneyland Park and
Disney California Adventure Park. Each day, one of those parks opens early for hotel Guests. Just check the
theme park calendar to see which park is open each morning and what time the park opens.
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is the closest hotel to the theme parks. It even has its own entrance into Disney California Adventure Park, making it easy to return to your hotel for a break or pool time. I love the hotel's Craftsman-style decor and wide open lobby. It is truly a work of art! Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa also has some great dining options.
Storytellers Cafe offers a delicious all-you-care-to-enjoy breakfast where you can also say hello to Mickey Mouse and his friends. Dining reservations are recommended and can be made up to 60 days in advance on the Disneyland Resort website or the
Disneyland mobile app.
Although
Disneyland Hotel is a little further away, it is close to the
Disneyland Monorail station that takes Guests from the
Downtown Disney District (the shopping district near Disneyland Hotel) to Tomorrowland inside Disneyland Park. It is a fun transportation option that takes you into one of the theme parks! Just keep in mind that sometimes there is a line to board the Disneyland Monorail, especially close to the park opening time and after the evening fireworks have finished. Additionally, Guests staying at Disneyland Hotel need to walk through the Downtown Disney District to enter Disney California Adventure Park.
Did you know that Disneyland Resort offers various services for people with autism? I recommend viewing
this page that offers tips and information on visiting Disneyland Resort with Guests with disabilities. It is very helpful!
Fairuz, have a wonderful visit to Disneyland Resort! We hope to see you real soon!
Magic Happens!
