Working on a Disneyland Planning and Information thread below...

https://www.disboards.com/threads/d...d-information-thread-updated-7-12-21.3843617/

In the Good Neighbor Hotel section of that thread, where I have hotels listed by miles from the entrance and walking time, there were some outdated information.

Below is an UPDATED listing, where I have added Desert Inn & Suites, Park Vue Inn, Del Sol, JW Marriott, Home2Suites and Hilton Garden Inn. Also updated the Red Lion Hotel conversion to Hotel Lulu.

Please check the hotels listed below and let me know if I have the names listed correctly or if one hotel should be listed closer than another. Good thing is I got them saved in a spreadsheet format, so should make future updates much easier. Only so much I can learn from Google Earth maps. :)

FYI, the cutoff for listings was both 1 mile distance and 20 minutes walk time from Disneyland...

I think your hotels are out of order. Example. At the cross walk that most of us measure by, one side of the crosswalk is Best Western Park Place inn. On the other side of the crosswalk is Park Vue Inn. You have the Best Western Anaheim Inn listed as closer, yet you have to walk past the Park Vue, Desert Inn and Suites, and the Del Sol to get there. Are you measuring from the front door of the hotel to the center of the Esplanade? Or to the security tent?
 
Also adding, I use G-Maps, where you can "walk" the route. From the front of Park Vue Inn, to the center of the esplanade, it is .24 miles. You have .3 (or a third of a mile) at 5 mins. That is about a 16 min mile pace. Looking at the number of people who get swept in 10Ks for not keeping that pace, I doubt the average person is walking that pace. Probably need to change it to more like a 20 min mile (which you are using later in your spread sheet.).
 
Most of the info was from another thread posted on DIS but it was really outdated. So not sure where they got their distance markers from or what they used. I have updated alot of the Hotel info but I'm not going to sort through info on all 30+ hotels listed. This is just meant for a guide for those new to the area.

On the same note, I would appreciate feedback if hotels change their names or if the miles distance or walking distances might be off. If you think certain hotels need to be ordered differently from closest to the park entrance, list them here and I'll make the updates. Thanks
 

From Hyatt House, you actually cross two streets to get to where Desert Palms is in order to get to the parks. With the wait at the traffic light, the walk should definitely take a bit longer for Hyatt House.
