Live from Disney! Re:Parking at Disneyland Hotel/EM hours?

[ilovethesun]

We are at Disneyland and today we parked in the main parking lot and it was a hike. We got our Dream APs so now I understand we can park at the Disneyland Hotel for free. Our problem is that by the looks of it, the lot is not too big. Will there be space for us to park?

Also, is there a decent amount of attractions open to make the EM hours worth it? We have a 2 year old and 4 year old daughter. Is there a place to find out what's open?

We are having a great time. We were, however, annoyed that we had to wait almost 2 hours to obtain our APs from the annual passport office.

Tomorrow should be more fun!

Thanks,
angie

Thanks for the help!

You cant park at the Disneyland hotel but at any other. We usually park at New york which is the next nearest and have never had any problem getting a space. You have to show your dream Ap when you drive in.

EMH usually has most fantasyland rides open and Buzz, Orbitron, Space Montain

We find it really worthwhile doing as you can do thngs like Peter pan and Dumbo as walk ons

All of fantasyland is open for EMH (pinocchio and snow white take it in turns though, so only one out of those two.) and also buzz, orbitron and space mountain.

I think would be a great help to do all the rides for the little ones without big lines.

Dont know about parking, sorry.

Hi - great to hear you're having fun!!!

You can park at any onsite hotel except the Disneyland Hotel with your Dream passes - the Hotel New York seems to be the favourite with other AP holders .

EMH has the following rides open in Fantasyland from 8am right through - Peter Pan, Dumbo, Teacups, Carousel, either Pinocchio or Snow White ride.

In Discoveryland, you have Buzz, Orbitron and Space Mountain open during EMH.

None of the other rides are open, and none of the other lands are open either.

As your children are young enough to enjoy the Fantasyland rides over and over with no or little queues, I'd suggest its worth getting up early to make full use of EMH at least once on your trip.

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely go for EMH, apart from the rides that are open I love the feeling of the near-empty park!

Hope you continue to have fun!
