Staying On Disneyland Property
Staying at a Disney owned hotel comes with many benefits, the most intangible of which is that you will feel like you are at Disney during your entire trip, not just while at the parks.
Staying at a Disney owned hotel is an immersive experience and so much more convenient.
Check out this list of amenities that you’ll receive when you stay in a Disney hotel:
- Participation in Extra Magic Hours – One-hour early entry prior to the scheduled opening time on designated days to the Disneyland Park or California Adventure. The general public is not allowed in during the Extra Magic Hour so you’ll have much less competition for attractions. Disneyland – Tues, Thurs, Sat. California Adventure – Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun. NOTE: This benefit ends on 4 January 2026! After that, Disney Hotel guests will be given a single Lightning Lane Multi Pass per person on the room reservation. This is a single pass to use on just one day for the whole trip, not daily.
- Charging of your Disneyland purchases (Merchandise, Dining, etc.) to your room. Note: third-party vendors, like most restaurants at Downtown Disney, are excluded.
- Special Park Entrance – Use of a convenient gateway to California Adventure through the Grand California Hotel and Spa.
- Disney Merchandise delivery to your resort (from the theme parks or Downtown Disney)
- The ability to book Preferred Access Dining Reservations between 60 and 2 days prior to check-in.
