Anaheim hotels

[Tink the Rock Star]

Traveling with two teens 17 & 18, we're heading to Disneyland. We haven't been there in 3 years, we usually go to WDW. We're looking for hotel rooms large enough for the four of us. Plus we'd like to stay in a place with continental breakfast within walking distance to DL. Any suggestions? I've heard a lot of great things about the Cany Cane Inn, and it looks really nice, has anyone ever stayed there? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks Much!

Jen,

I was in DL 2 weeks ago. I stayed at a Best Western on Harbor Boulevard (right across the street from DL). In fact, in the morning we saw people walking to the park.

I booked this on line at Best Western's site. They had different categories of rooms. We took the standard room with extra space. The room seemed a little larger than the ave. hotel, had a fridge and coffe maker and was nice and clean. It was the same price as a reg. standard room. (I really don't know how much more room since I never stayed in one of their standard rooms before).

They were working on painting one of the buildings and the pool was not open (right near the paint area), but that didn't bother us. We were there to go to the parks, not stay in the hotel.
The cost was $82/night, if I remember correctly.

This is borrowed info from many sources[like;http://disboards.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=26]while doing my own research. Hpoe it helps!


Fairfld Inn Anaheim Disneyland
1460 S Harbor Blvd
Rates: $53 - $135 Anaheim CA
We have always stayed at the Fairfield Inn. It is clean, friendly, and some rooms have fireworks views from the balcony. The location can't be beat. It is literally minutes to the front gate...faster than the shuttle! We highly recommend it. We will be staying there again in July.
Fairfield Inn (Across the street from the main entrance) - This is a very large motel and was very nice. Fridge in the room. This is a marriot chain, so you might find some good discounts. Easy walk to the entrance and the staff was very friendly. Offers free Anaheim Shuttle, but don't know why because the walk was so easy. We stayed there in Dec. Much closer walk than the Anabella, but the room was not decorated as plushly as Anabella. We got an AP rate of $49/night. www.fairfieldinn.com

Howard Johnson Plaza
1380 South Harbor Boulevard
Rates: $59 - $194
Anaheim CA
I like the Howard Johnson very much too. It doesn't have a theme but is on a nice size chunk of property with pine trees and loads of greenery. The hotel has interior corridors and most rooms have balconies some with awesome views of Disneyland fireworks. Ask for a room away from the freeway! There is no free breakfast here though. The walk to the Park is 7-12 minutes.
I just returned from a stay at the Howard Johnson. I had read many great reviews about it so decided to try it out (got a great rate of $47/night thru Expedia). It was clean and the staff was very friendly. You can pay for the ART shuttle or walk. We chose to walk as it was a 10-15 minute walk and we didn't have any kids with us. The main pool is being renovated, but they have a second pool which was open. The water was very warm, like bath water, and there were never many people in the pool. This hotel is also next to Mimi's restaurant which we liked very much. Decent prices and very large portions plus the food was very good.

My vote is also for the Fairfield Inn. We stayed there 2 years ago. Very clean, good service. There is a Mc Donalds in the front parking lot and it takes 5 minutes or less to walk across the street. Not to mention you have a wonderful view of CA and DL at night from your room.
