My husband and I are taking our kids (14,12 and 9 to DL for their first visit in April. 4/8-4/14. Well either have a 3 or 4 day park hoppers. 1 or 2 non park days. One will be spent with family that lives in the areas. My husband and I have been and stayed at the courtyard. We are yearly WDW visitors and always stay on property we like the Disney bubble, hotel activities and themes. The transportation there is big for us, but that’s not really a helpful factor here to help us pick.
We are looking at the Tropicana mostly due to the proximity to the Disneyland entrance. It seems like a basic hotel with not much to talk about. Is it updated, rundown, Clean?
Our friends recommend the Howard Johnson. They stayed in a “park view” room. They said it was clean and the water park was a lot of fun. Idk how much use we would get out of the pool that time of year. Is this more family friendly?
The price difference between these is only $200. So if we go with one of these we want to pick on what’s more family friendly and clean and overall enjoyable
Our original plan was to stay at Pixar place. We wanted to stay when my husband and I went. They had just opened and we couldn’t get a room. I love the theme. I like the early entry even though it’s only 30mins. Seems like their is a little more to do there then the other 2 hotels. It is $1000 more. Is it worth the higher price??
Open to all pros, cons or suggestions to stay away from one of them. Thank you for your help!
