Disneyland Hotel

You have to stay here at least once

Disney's design time does a fantastic job of making the rooms, the lobbies, and atmosphere feel very much like you're experiencing Disneyland the entire time you're there. The customer service is also exceptionally good.

Honestly, there wasn't much I didn't like. I'm spoiled, and I don't want to stay anywhere else when I go to Disneyland now. However, there is one thing. It's clear that, that hotel, even though it's been renovated multiple times, is getting old. Simple things like there being low ceilings (and I'm only 6', so I can't imagine how taller people feel about them) show off that it might be outgrowing itself. We stayed in Frontier Tower, so the experience might be different on the others.

Our stay was for our 30th wedding anniversary, and the hotel staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome, & special. Although the prices seem a little high for most people, our stay was very enjoyable. We will be returning in the future.

The only negatives to our trip were the Disneyland Railroad, Haunted Mansion, and River Boats were closed. Also, I was looking for a Disneyland Railroad Engineer hat, but was only able to find a Conductor's hat.. Lastly, there were no hats for the Disneyland Monorail.

Love the themes and decor, and the perks that come with staying at a Disneyland resort hotel. The headboard that lights up and plays music (and serves as a great nightlight) is lovely.

We had a room in the Adventure Tower facing Downtown Disney this time, and while we didn't care about the view (in this case, plants from the Adventure garden blocked pretty much anything we could see from the 2nd floor), what we didn't like was how loud the music was from Downtown Disney. We also learned that although we could only see a tiny amount of fireworks from Disneyland, we could hear all of them and they were pretty much as loud as they are when you're in the park. I'm still shocked that my kids slept through the music and fireworks that first night. On our third night, the older one was still awake when they started and used earplugs to get to sleep. The live music didn't stop until 10 pm even on weeknights, which meant we didn't get to enjoy the peace and quiet of the room (after being in the parks all day) until then. If you're not bothered by noise, it won't be a problem, but if you are, consider requesting a pool-view room.

Everyone was friendly and helpful

Our room was great, and so was every cast member.

I couldnt buy the throw pillow which was on each bed.

Classic Disney Service & Hospitality

Traveled as a multi-generational family group. We greatly appreciated how soundproof this hotel is. Plenty of water pressure at the right temperature too. And enough elevators for minimal wait time.

We could have used electrical outlets for cell phones at the bedside but this is a minor improvement suggestion.
