Explorers Hotel & Questions

[JustJonathan]

Hi all,

So.. after much hassle, I've managed to get us booked for 1 night this saturday at the explorers hotel. It was a good deal to be fair, 110 euros for the night which includes breakfast and shuttle.

What we're thinking is leaving our bags at the station to save having to cart them onto the shuttle the saturday night, then back to sequioa sunday morning.

Two questions;

1) Can anyone describe/explain to me where we can leave our luggage bags overnight in the station and how much it is for a large case? (From about 6pm through to 8 or 9am).

2) This is the first time at the explorers hotel, can anyone give me details of where the shuttle picks up from, what number it is and if possible some times/schedule links?

Thanks very much, 1 day at work left!!!

There are lockers in the station, I believe the large size can take a couple of cases and is probably around €10 but I'd be saving my money and taking mine to the Explorers with me. Apart from park closing when the bus does become rather mobbed it's very easy to travel on it with luggage.

2) This is the first time at the explorers hotel, can anyone give me details of where the shuttle picks up from, what number it is and if possible some times/schedule links?

The number 54 bus (pink) goes to the Explorers, you get it from outside the station, just across from the yellow Disney buses. It's very frequent, approx every 15 minutes, and runs from very early in the morning (ie before 7am) until at least midnight.

Thanks very much, 1 day at work left!!!

Very exciting! Have a great trip.

Thank you for the answers!

Do you know how frequent the buses are?

We would usually take our cases with us, but as we arrive a bit earlier we'd like to drop them off and be able to roam the village, DLP bar and rainforest our first night before having to get the shuttle back.

^ ^ ^ Approx every 15 minutes ^ ^ ^

I prefer to get checked in ASAP then go on back to the parks/Village/whatever but I can see why you'd rather use the lockers.
