Disneyland On-Site Hotels

Visiting Disneyland is a special adventure, but staying in a hotel on Disney property takes that adventure to the next level. Designed to continue the experience of the park, when you stay at a Disney property you feel as if you're still in the park. Special perks are often offered to Disney hotel guests, including the ability to charge anything at any of the parks to your room and the best perk of all: early admission into the park (on certain days), bypassing the crowds and enjoying rides with no lines. No matter which Disney hotel you stay at, the attention to detail is unparalleled. These hotels cost a little more than their off-site neighbors, but off-season rates and package deals are available.

The oldest of the Disneyland hotels, this property is located at the end of Downtown Disney, a shopping and dining experience set between all the Disney hotels and the main gates to the park.
