Hi. We're family of 4 who are thinking about staying here for 2 nights Aug 10-12 after our Disney cruise. I'm trying to figure out how to get the best price out of this hotel. Best deal could include park tickets if it works out that way. Here's what I've found so far.
Regular rate is $159/night Disney facing 2 queen beds or $149 pool view
AAA rate is $143.10/night Disney facing 2 queen beds or $134.10 pool view
Mousesavers code is $135.15 Disney facing 2 queen beds or $126.65 pool view
I've read some have been able to get $59-69 with an entertainment code. I don't have the entertainment book. I looked it up & I'm assuming I'd have to buy the $9.99 one for anaheim. Is there a hojo discount code once I've bought it to use for this hotel? Now, I hate to buy the book if the discount doesn't apply for summer or it ends up being no better than the above deals. Can anyone w/an entertainment book run a search for me and let me know what kind of deal you can get? Thanks.
Also, I'm not sure if adding tickets in will make it any cheaper or not. This is what I've found as far as ticket prices.
Disneyland.com & Getaway today prices look the same to me (am i wrong?)
3 day hopper $139/kids $169 adults
2 day hopper $112/kids $132 adults
ARES Travel package from Mousesavers $216.23pp or $864.92 w/3 day park hoppers & standard room (I'm assuming this is not disney view or pool view, but it doesn't seem to give me an option to choose the type of room). So, even though its not an apples to apples comparison, if park ticket portion of this booking is $616 (2A/2K 3 day hoppers), that makes the room total $248.92 or $124.46/night (again not disney view or pool view...don't know how to get that with the booking engine)
Getaway Today package is $877 using podcast code to get out of $10 of the $20 handling fee w/ 3 day park hoppers & standard room (same room problem, can't select pool or disney view). Again, not apples to apples, but subtracting out $616 for tickets, that makes room total $261 or $130.50/night (again not pool or disney view...don't know how to get that with the booking engine)
So, what would you do? How do you get the best discount you can for this hotel short of buying an AP? Will ent code work to get it even cheaper for me? And, just buy tickets separately? Hojo says they sell them, but I hate to get there and pay full retail price.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
