Bump, please give us your feedback after stay at the GCH, it really helps people to plan and have expectations.

Hi Guys, We have been back for awhile now.


We ate breakfast at Storytellers two of the mornings we were there. Good food, we ate off the meau, nicely presented. Excellent CM's and chef came out to discuss one food allergy I have. I was impressed! We also got nacho's another day from White Water Snacks - Excellent. Had a late dinner on our last night there too, just burgers, but they were very nicely done. CM's friendly and reasonable prices.
The parks were busy, but very comfortable. I have to admit I was disappointed in the Food and Wine Fest. We have gone to the one at WDW a couple of times. California's is a lot lower key without nearly as many booths. It wasn't bad, just not as extensive as WDW. From what I have read you really have to attend hard ticket events to get the real California F&W experience. Not something we planed far enough ahead to do.
The one thing that surprised me was how small the room was at GCR. It was nice, clean, and I loved the bed and triple sheeting.



I was surprised by the rack rate of $980.00 per night placed on the wall card. I most certainly wouldn't spend that much for just a room, especially as small as this one was. However, we were paying for the convience and staying at California's flagship Disney resort. It was great to go back to the room for a rest or to drop off a purchase before heading to a park. Loved how much we were able to do/see during our trip because we didn't have to drive, park, walk long distances or take some form of transportation.
So would we stay there again? Yes, if we could get a pin code deal like this time, but we may also return to the Disneyland Hotel. They are going to be finished with their refurb. in the near future. The rooms are larger and I would love to see the new rooms in person, the pictures of the head board and magic additions is something I would love to experience.
Thank you for all your help on this trip. We had a great time.
