When planning a trip to Disneyland, one of the first tasks you’ll need to do is select a hotel. While rooms on Disney property can be booked directly, there are also cheaper hotels near Disney land that are closer to the parks than those offered at Disneyland Resort. These are great alternatives for budget travelers or families wanting an easier access point than the Disneyland Hotel has.
If your budget is tight or you want to save money while still being near the theme parks, booking a hotel at Knott’s Berry Farm Amusement Park and then taking the free shuttle to Disneyland Resort may be your ideal solution. This will grant access to their waterpark as well as free transportation to Disneyland Resort.
Knott’s Berry Farm is only a few miles away, making it easy to combine your Disney vacation with an amusement park adventure. For even more entertainment, downtown Buena Park or Knott’s Soak City Water Park are both within walking distance of the hotel.
Choose from a range of hotel styles, such as traditional hotel rooms, resort-style rooms and even suites with pools. All rooms come equipped with cable TV, microwaves, refrigerators and work desks; many even come with balconies. What’s more? This hotel is pet-friendly too!
Staying at the Disneyland Hotel is truly magical; expect to spot characters as you make your way to the park, in the lobby and throughout the resort. Not only that but even its bathrooms have been decorated with Disney pixie dust!
The hotel itself is an impressive Craftsman-style building situated right by the entrance to Disney parks. As a result, it’s become popular among couples and families due to its close proximity to both Disneyland and California Adventure.
On your days off, enjoy the breathtaking E-Ticket and D-Ticket pools as well as two massive monorail waterslides. There’s also a kid-friendly pool and cabana area. Additionally, Tenaya Stone Spa offers massages or facials.
At the hotel, guests have access to several restaurants for dinner and drinks without even leaving the grounds. Award-winning Napa Rose restaurant and Hearthstone Lounge provide a rustic setting for evening cocktails.
If you’re in need of a quick bite before heading to the theme park, Trader Sam’s Grog Stand and Starbucks are conveniently located on-site for refreshments or breakfast before hitting the rides.
Families often opt for the WorldMark Anaheim Resort, a luxurious hotel with spacious apartments that can accommodate larger groups. It is only a short walk away from both Disneyland Resort and Anaheim GardenWalk – an indoor shopping and dining complex.
