Me and my family have been staying here the last 7 years of our Disneyland trips. They are always accommodating and have friendly services. Its also only about a 10 min walk to the parks. Thank you Holiday Inn for always making our vacations a wonderful stay!

I had a very nice stay at this hotel. We arrived early from Northern Oregon and the hotel let us check in 2 hours early. I especially liked the beds. They were super comfy and plenty of pillows. The trash was taken out daily and we got fresh towels. We stayed on the 4th floor and it was very quiet. I also really enjoyed the breakfast food. I thought the price was very reasonable considering breakfast anywhere else in the area would cost more and the food was just as good. The music in restaurant was a little loud at times. But did eventually get turned down. There were little TVs at each table that my son loved but they were only turned on the 1st day we were there and we stayed 4 nights. I really liked how close it was to downtown Disney and we found out it’s just easier to walk than take a crowded bus. Emilio in the restaurant was a pleasure to see each morning he brought me fresh coffee. And he was super friendly and a hard worker. Also check in and out was a breeze. I highly recommend

We had a great stay overall! The room was a standard setup with two queen beds—nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable. The property is a bit older, but the staff was helpful and check-in/out was quick and easy. The location is a huge plus—just a 15-minute walk to Downtown Disney! The splashpad was a hit with our 18-month-old. Definitely recommend for families looking for a convenient and affordable option near the parks.

Could use a makeover. Rooms are dated. Was expecting Holiday Inn Express quality. Fell a little short. But if you're staying for the proximity of Disneyland then you're good to go.

The staff here was impeccable! Tyler at the front desk was so helpful and friendly! Maria and Sergio made sure my breakfast dining experience was superb! Although my building was being renovated, the room was very clean and allowed for temperature changes that I could control to my comfort. The pool was heated which was a bonus. I did wish the outside door to my building locked for extra safety.

We just got back from a 5 night stay. We used our IHG points to book our room. The location is right by Mickey and Friends parking garage. We flew into SNA instead of LAX and it made our Uber to and from the airport quick. Our Uber driver said if we were heading to LAX our drive would have been 2 hours during commute hours instead of 15-20 mins. The walk was doable. We used the Disneyland Hotel cut to go thru security (less busy). The pedestrian gate was always open and we asked the guard before we entered and he said "No problem". We used that cut every time we headed to the park. The first day we walked to the main entrance. 2 other days we used the Monorail which is closer. It's also close to the temporary Earl of Sandwich trailer. Highly recommend for tater tots in the morning so the kids can eat while in the stroller. Also great breakfast and lunch options. Hotel always had a different Disney movie playing in the lobby and we were always greeted with a friendly "Welcome back!" Or "You going to head back out?" We slept great. Beds were comfortable. Although I wish the comforter was heavier. Pool is heated. We had dinner one night in the restaurant and it was just what we needed (chicken tenders, burgers, fries). Gas station is nearby for drinks and snacks, but they do have a store in the lobby too although more expensive. We would stay here again. Although rooms are dated, we just needed a place to sleep and shower. Was everything we needed. We would absolutely stay here again!

My son and I enjoyed our 4 night stay while on our Disney vacation. I chose the hotel because of how close it was to the parks and the amenities it included. Thanks to Brittany for making us feel very welcomed. She truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a positive experience. In addition to a great welcome staff, the breakfast staff ensured food was hot and fresh - even on the busiest mornings, the pool area was always nice and clean, and the restaurant food came in clutch on those late nights after a busy day in the parks. Absolutely planning on staying here again on my next trip to Anaheim.

My family and I stayed here for a week, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Elizabeth surprised us with something truly special, and we are forever grateful to her for going above and beyond. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and worked hard to keep the property spotless. The pool area was relaxing and well maintained. We also enjoyed the on-site restaurant—great food and amazing mojitos at the bar! The location is perfect, just a short walk to Downtown Disney, and entering through those gates is much less busy than the main entrance. A huge thank-you to Elizabeth and the entire team for making our stay so memorable and enjoyable. We will absolutely be back!
