Newport Bay Hotel

[lalad21]

Hi, I am planning on taking my 5 year old nephew to eurodisney in June and was thinking of staying in this hotel, does anyone have any info or opinions on it? Also will he be allowed to go on many of the attractions. Im thinking of booking a suite and was wondering also if its worth paying the extra for private check in and VIP fast pass? Any info would be appreciated!!
Thanks!

Hi there,

welcome to the DIS.

First of all the name of the Resort is Disneyland Paris (since 1995) not Eurodisney.
Just have a look at my Avatar.

But now your questions: The NPBC is a great hotel. And I think it is worth the extra cost to get the VIP Fast Passes.
Your 5 year old can go on many rides but not on all. I think he will be to small/young for Big Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain, Rock 'n Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror.

You will have a great time as June is a perfect month to visit the resort. It is warm but not too crowded as the school holidays start only one month later.

Hi lalad21 and welcome to DLP DIS board
We are a friendly bunch here so please join in on any other thread or if you have a number of questions then just start a new thread for each

If you have not had a look yet, DLP posting rules are here, DIS posting guidelines can be found here.

NPC is a popular hotel and you'll find a few on here who think the Admiral club is definitely worth the upgrade.
I'm sure you'll get plenty of positive comments.

We have been taking DD every year; who is quite small for her age, since she was 15months. Apart from the coasters that young children are excluded from for safety reasons there is plenty for young children to do

I have stayed in a suite there & would recommend it. I wrote a report on it. You should find it at

You get to have breakfast in a separate place from everyone else too. If you have any questions, just ask.

Thank you for all your information, i think i will definitely go with the suite. What is the advantage of the VIP pass over a fast pass?

I agree with all the other posters, Is a fantastic hotel.

We were given a complimentary upgrade to a suite when we visted in August 06 and it was fantastic, there was so much room, the children loved it as the windows all overlooked the lake (really beautiful at night).

The hotel is in an idea location as well because its an easy walk along side the lake to the parks if you dont want to catch the bus each morning.

Have a really lovely time.

Anyone can use fastpass- you put your ticket in the machine at the entrance to the ride (only certain rides have FP) then it gives you a timeslot in which to return. When you return you queue in a different line (much shorter usually). You can only hold one FP at a time.

VIP FP is only given to those who stay in a suite or DLH Castle Club. You use this on all FP rides whenever you want without having to get time slots
