reviews.
Hey everyone this is Julia with Honest Hotel Reviews and today I’m at the brand new Cambria
Hotel at the Disneyland Resort giving you an Honest Room Tour & Review.

The Cambria Hotel opened in late 2019.
This hotel offers some amazing amenities including one of the best breakfast buffets plus an
amazing pool areas which we review in some of our other videos so if you’re thinking
about staying here, we encourage you to check them out.
We booked a 1 bedroom king suite and were given a room up on the 8th floor.
this suite is made up of a living space and a bedroom with an ensuite. we were impressed
with the modern decor…
But there were a few eyebrow raisers along the way.
When you first enter the suite, you walk in to the Kitchenette and living space.
The kitchenette consists of a full sized fridge a microwave, a Keurig coffee maker, a sink…and
that’s it.
We found it a little odd that there was nothing in any of the drawers or cupboards…not even
a dish towel and soap, Next to the kitchenette was a small dining table for two, then a super
comfy living area with a couch that can be converted into a bed, a tv, an armchair and
a nice coffee table.
If you are here for a longer stay this extra room is great, especially if you are travelling
with family members who have a different sleep schedule.
The bedroom was also very stylish and had an absolutely lovely king bed with tons of
pillows, lots of bedside chargers, a bunk bed with a trundle bed pull out so it can
sleep 3 little ones, a tv and a cabinet which kept a number of hangers, a safe and an iron
& board.
The room also had a few wall hangers and a bench, but I did notice there was no proper
luggage stand.
our room faced away from the park and had a view of the parking lot area, the starbucks
and a couple other restaurants.
The bathroom is connected to the bedroom and was interesting…good, but interesting.
It had 2 showers.
A bathtub shower and a standalone shower which is great if
you need both, but we felt that this space could have been better used, for example instead
of the tub/shower combination, replace it with a luxurious soaker tub or even just more
counter space.
The water pressure was good and we had no problems getting nice hot water during our
stay.
The Cambria provides great toiletries and lots of towels, but I was especially excited
about the full sized hair dryer
Now it’s time to reveal our room rating for the Cambria Hotel’s One Bedroom King
Suite.
We rate every room we stay in based on the same 4 categories which are Cleanliness & Condition,
Comfort & Security, In-Room Amenities & Value.
That way you can see how they stack up against each other.
first up is cleanliness & condition
This is a brand new hotel, so its no surprise we gave them a 4.5/5.
That said, there were a few nicks & bumps and the trundle bed drawer and the cabinet
doors were super hard to open.
Next Up, Comfort & Security
This place was spacious and comfortable, but I can’t give them a 5 simply because the
pillows were actually kind of uncomfortable.
so we've given them a 4.5 out of 5
when it comes to In Room Amenities we gave them a 4 out of 5
I mean…how many 1 bathroom hotels have 2 showers???
Again we couldn’t give them a 5.
We were kind of shocked that the hotel did not supply any dishes or utencils for a suite
with a kitchenette.
Other than that, they nailed it.
last but not least is Value
This one is tricky to evaluate.
For the price we paid, we still think there should have been some glassware or a few dishes
at the very least But I will say this: Not many kitchenette suites have full sized fridges
and two showers.
All in all, we landed on a 3/5
This gives the 1 bedroom king suite at the Cambria hotel an overall score of 4 out of
5.
We have stayed many hotels in the Disneyland area and this room competes with the best
of them.
If you prefer a nice, newer hotel and don’t mind staying a few blocks away from Disneyland,
we highly recommend the Cambria hotel.
Not only do they have great rooms, but they also have an amazing breakfast buffet, and
tons of hotel amenities for guests of all ages.
