The Anaheim Hotel is a two story motel style resort that is one of the less expensive options
that is almost right across the street for the Disneyland Resort.
Here’s how our reviews work.
Each hotel is graded on the same 4 categories which are: Overall Experience, Hotel Amenities,
Room & Value.
This way you can see how they stack up against each other.
For the Disneyland Area hotels we have adjusted our rating scale to be more lenient as many
of these hotels are from the 60s and are a little worse for wear.
From the reviews I’ve read, many guests on their first visit to the Disneyland Resort
are disappointed and surprised to find that these hotels are of a lower quality than they’d
expect to find at that price point.
Before even stepping into the hotel, we were warmly welcomed by a wonderfully friendly
employee who helped us with our bags.
The lobby was super fun and newly updated with a mid century modern style.
The front desk Staff was super friendly but we were offered a text when our room was ready
which never happened.
It was fun to be so close to the magic that you can even see the guardians of the galaxy
ride, mission breakout from the pool area.
The fun vibe of the hotel and the proximity to the parks helps bring the rating up, but
unfortunately, the quality of the room we stayed in doesn’t match the rest of the
resort and dampened the overall experience.
So we’re giving it a 3.5 out of 5
The Anaheim hotel offers one of the most comprehensive lists of hotel amenities in the entire Disneyland
area.
There is a huge gift shop on property, a well equipped 24/7 fitness centre that offers complimentary
apples & earbuds, a super fun outdoor games area with corn hole & a giant connect 4 board,
a funky lobby bar with amazing craft cocktails, and the Pizza Press restaurant that serves
THE BEST PIZZA and AMAZING freshly baked cookies in the area.
But my personal favourite part of the hotel is the incredible pool area that is beautiful
and big enough for everyone.
One of the best parts is the food menu is way above average fair since it is served
up by the Pizza Press.
The only way they could improve upon this rating is that there is no coffee or food
offered at the hotel between 10 am & 11 am and the bar area doesn’t open until 2pm.I've
also read that the wifi doesn't work in all the rooms.
All in all, we’re giving them a 4.5/4
The most disappointing part of our stay was the room.
We stayed in a Deluxe 2 King room which was dated, smelled of mildew, had super uncomfortable
and old beds, had what looked like blood stains on the floor of the bathroom and we found
a dead bug on the shelf in the closet.
That said, The sheets were clean, the pillows were comfortable, and the in-room amenities
were better than average so we are giving it a 2/5.

The Location here is great.
It is a quick and lovely walk to the Disneyland resort.
The Anaheim hotel is a little less costly than most of the hotels that are right across
the street.
The real value here is the proximity to the parks and the fantastic resort amenities are
are included.
Unfortunately, we are only able to give this hotel a 3 because of the quality of our room.
This gives the Anaheim Hotel an overall rating of 3.25/5 - This resort would get a much higher
rating from me and would be one of my favourite hotels in the Disneyland are if the rooms
matched the rest of the resort.
With an overall rating of 4/5 on trip advisor, there must be better rooms available, but
unfortunately, as we experienced, it really is luck of the draw.
I would certainly consider staying here again if they addressed the downfalls of the rooms.
