Family of 5 - Family room?

[travlnman1]

We are a family of 5 adults. Can we all stay in 1 room? What is a family room? I can't seem to find a description.

As far as I know the only on-site hotel that you could have 5 adults in would be the Davy Crocket Ranch, all of the others are a maximum of 4 adults in one room.

You could at Explorers Hotel. It's more difficult in the onsite hotels.

We're a family of 5 staying at the Explorers for the first time this week.

Onsite you can stay at DCR, DLH has rooms accommodating 5 and the Newport Bay has a limited number of rooms on the Admirals Floor I think.

Other than that I'm sure all the other hotels have interconnecting rooms, but you would actually have to book 2 rooms

Hi,

We stayed in a family room on the Admiral's floor of the Newport Bay last year. We "imagined" that it would be a larger room split into two with an interconnecting door...

...we imagined wrong!

A family room is one large room with two double beds and a convertible sofa.

So, when my wife, DS1 (5y), DS2 (18m) and my parents arrived in the room we were in for a bit of a shock

Fortunately, we all get on very well, but there is no privacy!

Travelling to the Sequioa tomorrow ... and we have two rooms booked!!

Explorers is a really good option as there is a double bed and 2 singles and then you can add an adjoining room which has a set of bunkbeds making it into a room for 6

The Explorers is very nice - we stayed there in February - I'm not sure if 2 adults would want the bunk beds though. It's like a regular hotel room PLUS a second small room with bunks in it. We stayed recently in Citea Magny le Hongre and we loved it. I did a review of it here. I think as it's all adults, I would go for that. You'd have so much more space. You could book the 3 bedroom villa which accommodates 8. We had the 2 bedroom one so I'm guessing the 3 bed villa has an extra double bed at least. It's a nice area. Good luck in your decision.

The disneyland hotel also offers "family" rooms, although I believe they are similar to those described at the Newport Bay

This is good to know as this would be perfect for our family of 5 if we were staying on-site for a short trip without the car
