"A trip to Disneyland is on plenty of travelers' bucket lists, especially for theme park fans and families looking to soak up the magic of Walt Disney's original park. While there are plenty of hotels in Anaheim that fit most budgets, the best options offer guests comfortable, family-friendly accommodations; easy access to the theme parks and the Downtown Disney District; plus sprinkles of pixie dust throughout your stay."
"Whether you stay at one of the on-site resorts or one within walking distance of the gates really comes down to a matter of preference. Just know that one of the perks of staying at a Disney-owned hotel will change beginning January 5, 2026: Instead of 30 minutes of early park entry, guests will get one skip-the-line pass (called Lightning Lane) for any of the Lightning Lane Multi-Pass eligible attractions to use during their visit."
Hotels in the Disneyland area provide comfortable, family-friendly accommodations, easy access to the theme parks and the Downtown Disney District, and themed touches throughout stays. The hotels fall into two categories: properties within Disneyland borders and nearby hotels within walking distance. Beginning January 5, 2026, Disney-owned hotel guests will receive one Lightning Lane skip-the-line pass for eligible attractions instead of 30 minutes of early park entry. Most hotels are about a 10- to 15-minute walk to the parks, enabling quick access to attractions such as Mr. Toad's Wild Ride and Guardians of the Galaxy—Mission: Breakout!.
