Visiting Disneyland with kids? One of the biggest planning decisions is finding a hotel near Disneyland that works for your family’s travel style and needs. I’ve been to the Disneyland Resort dozens and dozens of times and have stayed in so many hotels in the Anaheim, California area. On nearly every trip, my family chooses to stay at a hotel within walking distance to Disneyland.

But walking distance is only part of our decision-making process. Even among our Disneyland walking-distance hotel favorites, we have found that different properties work better for us under different travel circumstances. For example, in the summer, we look for a hotel that has a great pool we can enjoy in the heat. On a very quick trip, we might look for a more budget property that is as close to the gates as possible.

How the Disneyland Area Hotels on this List Were Picked
So what are the best hotels for your family on your Disneyland vacation? I compiled this list based on a wide variety of factors families care about – pools, free breakfasts, room types, and more. Your family may care more about one factor than another or you might take trips that have different needs. This list will help guide you to the hotels that have the features you want on every kind of trip!
In order to make this list, a hotel could be no farther than a 15-20 minute walk from the esplanade in front of the two parks. Why walking distance? After walking tens of thousands of steps in the park, the last thing any Disneyland visitor needs (especially one with kids) is a long walk back to the hotel to add additional blisters.

Additionally, for families proximity is often most important, especially if you have younger kids. I know from my own experience that a mid-day break back at the hotel is vital for our travel success. There are few things worse than waiting for a full or delayed shuttle bus while your toddler is melting down and in need of a nap! Walking makes you the master of your own destiny and schedule.
An Important Word About Accuracy & My Disneyland Experience
If you read Disneyland content here regularly, you probably know how meticulous I am in vacation planning and execution. I really want for you to have the most accurate details when planning your own trips too!
To be able to deliver on that promise and deliver you a carefully curated list of trustworthy hotel recommendations, I’ve personally stayed in dozens of hotels in Anaheim over the years. That includes a majority of properties on this list. I also work closely with three other Disneyland expert bloggers as part of the Disneyland with Kids Facebook group we co-own. I trust their expertise and opinions in recommending a few hotels even if I have not yet stayed myself. (For example, if you specifically need hotels for big families, my co-owner Becca has the definitive Disneyland hotels for large families guide). I have also been able to tour nearly every hotel in the vicinity of Disneyland, thanks to hotel tours hosted by my partners at Get Away Today.
I’ve walked each and every street in Anaheim where each and every hotel on this list is located. I know if these hotels are really walkable based on the locations of crosswalks, cut-throughs, buildings in the way, etc. I have purposefully left out a few hotels that are walking distance to Disneyland but that I probably wouldn’t stay in myself or wouldn’t recommend to a friend. Furthermore, you can also be confident I have fully updated and fact-checked the amenities, prices, and all other details on this list for 2023.

How to Book the Disneyland Hotels on this List
Most travelers have their preferred way to book hotels. Some are looking for the best price possible, no matter who it’s from. Others prefer to book on a hotel’s website directly in order to earn loyalty points or take advantage of elite status benefits. I hear that! I personally book my own hotels a variety of different ways. With that in mind, I’ve provided at least two different ways to investigate and book each of the hotels on this list.
In many instances, trusted Trips with Tykes partner Get Away Today will have the best deals. You can purchase standalone hotel rooms from Get Away Today with some properties, but you’ll likely save even more if you purchase a package that bundles together discounted park tickets with your hotel (save $10 more using code TYKES10 too).
I encourage you to price compare all the options before you book. What might be cheapest for one set of trip dates may not be as good of a deal for another. Get Away Today often offers exclusive benefits at some hotels (free breakfast, free parking, 3rd or 4th night free), so remember to add those into the mix when doing your comparisons. And don’t forget that Get Away Today’s website displays final prices that include tax and fees, unlike hotel websites which don’t add those until the final step before checkout.
And even if you purchase your hotel somewhere else, always book your park tickets through an authorized third party discount broker like Get Away Today. There’s absolutely no reason to pay full Disney price! Check out their discounted Disneyland park tickets here — and remember that in 2023, Disneyland theme park reservations are also required.
So, without further ado, here are the best walking distance hotels for families near Disneyland, both on-property and off.
*Map Key: Green=5 minutes or less walk, Pink=5-10 minute walk, Purple=10-15 minute walk, Yellow=15-20 minute walk. (Distance and time measured from the esplanade between the parks – a few hotels have alternate and quicker means of entry/exit for some parks.)
On-Property Disneyland Hotels within Walking Distance
All three of the on-property Disneyland hotels are within easy walking distance of the parks so they all make the list. On-property hotels come with a few perks, like magical theming, restaurants, and more of a full service experience than most other area hotels (but not all – more on that later).
The most important perk for on-property stays in 2023 is early entry. What used to be known as Extra Magic Hour is now gone, but it has been replaced with an early entry benefit for guests of these three hotels only. Early entry allows guests to enter either park 30 minutes early every morning of the week to ride select attractions before everyone else. On my last trip, I was able to ride four Fantasyland attractions during this 30 minute window with almost no waits!
Of course, these hotels are also more expensive than their off-property equivalents. Budget accordingly! Be aware as well that many of these hotels sell out quickly and early during peak periods.
1. Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa

- Standard Room Price: $650-850
- Walking Time: <5 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Multiple, with waterslide
- Standard Room Occupancy: 5
- Parking Costs: $35/night
The newest hotel at Disneyland (and also the closest) is the Grand Californian. The property boasts a private side entrance into Disney California Adventure park. Often known as the most luxurious of the three on-property hotels, the Grand Californian has a spa, two Disneyland character meals, and fine dining available at Napa Rose.
The arts and crafts style is immersive and breathtaking. The hotel is especially awe-inspiring during the holidays at Disneyland when a huge tree and gingerbread house are constructed in the lobby. Some standard rooms can sleep up to 5 and were last substantially renovated in 2017.

2. The Disneyland Hotel

- Standard Room Price: $500-650
- Walking Time: 5-10 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Multiple, with waterslide
- Standard Room Occupancy: 5
- Parking Costs: $35/night
The original on-property hotel at Disneyland, the Disneyland Hotel, offers guests an impressive combination of modern amenities mixed with classic Disney history. Families will especially enjoy the monorail themed pool and magical Disney touches like the musical illuminated castle headboards. Many standard rooms can sleep up to 5 people and always include family-friendly amenities like a mini-fridge.
Disneyland character dining is available in the hotel at Goofy’s Kitchen for both breakfast and dinner. Trader Sam’s Tiki Terrace and Tangaroa Terrace provide additional dining choices.
The Disneyland Hotel is within walking distance of both parks, although guests can also choose to ride the monorail that connects Downtown Disney to Tomorrowland in Disneyland park.

3. Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel

- Standard Room Price: $375-475
- Walking Time: 10-15 minutes
- Breakfast: No
- Pool: Multiple, with waterslide
- Standard Room Occupancy: 5
- Parking Costs: $35/night
Paradise Pier is usually the least expensive of the three Disneyland on-property hotels, although it is still fairly pricey. With beachy decor and a rooftop themed pool, it is often a smart choice for families with younger kids or anyone who wants on property perks at the lowest price possible.
The hotel is currently undergoing a major renovation in 2023 to transform it into the Pixar Place Hotel. Thus fair, it remains open during construction but amenities like the pool and restaurants are not available.
One newer perk of this hotel in the meantime is that it now has access into a side entrance into Disney California Adventure park that cuts down on walking time significantly for DCA days. Guests can walk to Disneyland park or can instead choose to walk a couple of minutes to Downtown Disney and ride the monorail the rest of the way there.
Rooms sleep up to 5 guests with a two queen plus sofa/daybed layout available in many rooms.

Best Off-Property Hotels Near Disneyland within Walking Distance
4. Courtyard Anaheim Theme Park Entrance

- Standard Room Price: $275-450
- Walking Time: 5-10 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Water park + standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 6
- Parking Costs: $35/night (valet only)
The Courtyard Anaheim Theme Park Entrance is one of the very few off-property hotels within walking distance of Disneyland with a major “wow factor.” Built in 2015 and just renovated again in 2020-2021, the hotel includes an amazing water playground for families complete with several large waterslides. While many hotels in the Courtyard brand are fairly utilitarian, there are a few standout properties in the portfolio that offer something unique, and this is one of them.
Standard rooms are beyond spacious, with a split bathroom that has both a standalone shower and shower over a tub as well as two sinks. The rooms also have bunk beds in addition to two queen beds and therefore all sleep six, making it a smart fit for larger families, or even families of four like mine who just want separate sleeping spaces for their kids.

Of course, with quality comes a premium price, so budget accordingly. If you have Marriott points, the hotel runs anywhere from 50,000-75,000 points a night. I have now stayed at this property multiple times, both with my kids as well as on girls weekends and for conferences, and always find it delivers on its higher price point and then some.

5. Fairfield Inn Anaheim Resort

- Standard Room Price: $175-300
- Walking Time: 5-10 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 5
- Parking Costs: $24/night
The Fairfield Inn is the hotel my family has stayed in most of any off-property hotel at Disneyland over the years. Rooms at this hotel were all just recently renovated and are quite spacious. Standard rooms have either two queens (some with extra sleeper chair) or a king and pull out sofa. They also include a microwave and mini-fridge. Themed rooms are available for a bit higher cost.
Although Fairfield Inns usually offer free breakfast, this is one that doesn’t. But it’s easy to grab a quick and cheap bite when staying here, either at the Pizza Hut in the hotel or the McDonald’s next door that is on the walk to the park.
If you have Marriott points, the hotel runs about 30,000-40,000 points per night. As long as you aren’t visiting on a peak holiday period and can book ahead, this property can be an excellent use for a 35,000 point free night certificate that comes with many Marriott credit cards.

6. Howard Johnson Anaheim Hotel & Water Playground

- Standard Room Price: $175-250 (Buildings 3-6), $200-300 (Buildings 1 & 2)
- Walking Time: 10-15 minutes
- Breakfast: No
- Pool: Water park + standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 5
- Parking Costs: $25/night (1 car limit)
The HoJo has been a mainstay for many decades of Disneyland vacationers and is truly one of the best for families with kids. The hotel has a pirate themed water playground that entertained my kids for hours (see my full Howard Johnson Disneyland Anaheim Review). Rooms come standard with microwaves and mini-fridges. The hotel has a number of room layouts and types, including family suites that work for a wide variety of guests and rooms with bunk beds.
The hotel has very recently renovated about 200 rooms in Buildings 1 and 2. The result is accommodations that rival some of the hippest hotels in the area. The styling of the new rooms is orange and blue midcentury modern – bold enough for kids and cool enough for parents alike. The rooms in Buildings 3-6 are less expensive and present a smart value proposition with access to all the same amenities.

7. Hyatt House at Anaheim Resort/Convention Center

- Standard Room Price: $200-300
- Walking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Breakfast: Yes (hot)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4-6
- Parking Costs: $28/night
Hyatt House is located about a block down Harbor Boulevard near the corner of Katella. This makes the walk a bit longer than some of the hotels on this list, but still quite doable. The hotel is new as of 2016 so still feels quite fresh. And since it’s part of the Hyatt chain, it’s an excellent hotel for either earning or redeeming World of Hyatt points (the hotel is a category 4 or 12,000-18,000 points a night).
There are a wide variety of room types at the Hyatt House Anaheim, so choose carefully. Most have full kitchens and mini-suite style layouts, including all the room options that Get Away Today sells that sleep 6. Some family suites with bunk beds in a separate room are available too. The hotel also includes a free hot breakfast. The pool is a bit utilitarian, so it might be a hotel that works best for families not planning on a lot of hotel pool time.
My friend and fellow miles and points expert Shawn of Miles to Memories has a very helpful and detailed review of this property.

8. SunCoast Park Hotel Anaheim, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

- Standard Room Price: $150-225
- Walking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: $30/night (FREE when booking with Get Away Today)
The SunCoast Park Hotel Anaheim is one of the newer walking distance hotels near Disneyland. It opened originally as the Country Inn & Suites but changed hands a few years ago, embracing the SoCal beach and surf scene for its colors and theming. It is a tiny bit farther than the hotels immediately across the street, but that extra few minutes of time gets you more for your money. ART also stops at the hotel if you want to take a ride instead of walking on some occasions.
Rooms are clean and bright and well-appointed for families with a microwave and mini-fridge. The breakfast buffet at this hotel is no longer free, but if you have Hilton Gold or Diamond status, your dining credits are more than enough to cover breakfast for the family.
Because it is a block off of the main drag, it usually is a value compared to hotels with a Harbor Boulevard address. It’s an especially excellent choice if you have older kids and won’t be walking back to your hotel daily for a mid-day break.

9. Holiday Inn Express & Suites Anaheim Resort Area

- Standard Room Price: $225-300
- Walking Time: 10-15 minutes
- Breakfast: Yes (hot)
- Pool: Standard pool + splash pad
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: $30 (valet only)
Another fairly new hotel within walking distance of Disneyland is the Holiday Inn Express. The hotel opened in 2016, making it feel more fresh than quite a few of the competitors on Harbor Boulevard.
The hotel has standard rooms that sleep 4 as well as some 1 and 2 bedroom family suites for larger families that don’t cost that much above standard room prices. Rooms include a microwave and mini-fridge as well.
What families will appreciate most is the complimentary breakfast. The pool area is not as full-featured as some of the hotels with water parks, but it’s more impressive than most with a regular pool, a small splash zone, and a hot tub included.

10. Castle Inn & Suites

- Standard Room Price: ~$200
- Walking Time: 10-15 minutes
- Breakfast: No
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: FREE
The Castle Inn is one of the classic family-owned Harbor Boulevard favorites that has stood the test of time as the bigger chains have come to town. Charming and whimsical, this hotel has personal service with over the top castle theming. Trips With Tykes readers book this hotel with Get Away Today more than any other off-property hotel, so I know it is an appealing pick.
Rooms aren’t as modern as some of the newer properties in the area but they are clean and spacious for families. The pool is basic but gets the job done. While a lot of hotels in the Disneyland area have spotty WiFi, Castle Inn has committed to making theirs blazingly fast.
One of the best features of the property is its 40 well laid out and very reasonably priced family suites. These suites sleep 6 and have a king bed in the front room connected to a shared bathroom. A second back bedroom behind a fully closing door has two queens and an extra sink for the kids. These book up early so plan 3-4 months in advance if you want one for peak travel periods!

11. Park Vue Inn

- Standard Room Price: $200-250
- Walking Time: <5 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: FREE
Location, location, location. You can’t get any closer to Disneyland than at Park Vue, so for families that really value proximity, this is a top pick. The hotel has free parking until 10pm on the day of departure, but note it no longer offers free breakfast.
Families may also especially enjoy the room type with one queen and a bunk bed that sleeps 4 as well as the mini suite that sleeps 6. This hotel isn’t available to book on third party or discount booking sites, so you’ll have to go direct if you want to stay there!

12. The Anaheim Hotel

- Standard Room Price: $175-250 (+$7.50 resort fee)
- Walking Time: 5-10 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: $20
The Anaheim Hotel is an older but renovated property that sits in a value sweet spot for families. Located about the same distance from the pedestrian entrance of Disneyland as the Courtyard or the Fairfield (in the other direction), its location is amazing at a bit lower price point (although annoyingly, the hotel charges a sneaky $7.50 resort fee). You can often snag a 4th night free deal when booking with Get Away Today to save even more.
The hotel’s pool is doesn’t have any waterslides or splash pads but it is much larger than most comparable hotels in the area, so it impresses. The Pizza Press restaurant on site is one of the best family-friendly restaurant choices in the area as well.
See my friend Jessica’s review of this property over on the Happiest Blog on Earth.

13. Best Western Plus Park Place Inn & Mini Suites

- Standard Room Price: ~$300
- Walking Time: <5 minutes
- Breakfast: Yes (continental)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: $15
Like the Park Vue, the Best Western Plus Park Place hotel is about as close as possible the pedestrian entrance of Disneyland. Consequently, its price is sometimes a bit inflated, but the free included continental breakfast can make up some of that price differential.
Standard rooms include two double beds which may be too tight for families, but the two queen rooms are often not that much more expensive. And the even larger mini-suites with two queen beds and a sleeper sofa are truly awesome choices for families of 5 or 6.
There are a number of Best Western branded properties in the Anaheim area, so check the name and location carefully before you book to make sure you aren’t confusing any of them!

14. SpringHill Suites at Anaheim Resort/Convention Center
- Standard Room Price: $220-300
- Walking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Breakfast: Yes (hot)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4-6
- Parking Costs: $24 (SAVE $12 when booking with Get Away Today)
While it’s a bit farther than some hotels on this list, the Springhill Suites makes the cut for families because… suites! Located across the street from the Hyatt House on Harbor Boulevard and Katella, this hotel is ideal for families who need more space.
All suites have two separate sleeping areas with a bathroom in the middle, and a new room type has a door that totally closes the two areas off from one another. While the hotel’s king suite with sofa bed sleeps 4, the cost of a two queen suite with a sofa bed or two queen kids suite with bunks is often not much more, and those rooms sleep 6.
If you have Marriott points, the hotel runs at about 30,000-48,000 points a night and can sometimes be redeemed at off-peak times with the 35,000 point free night certificate that comes with many Marriott credit cards.
See my friend Jessica’s review of this property over on the Happiest Blog on Earth. Note also that there is another Springhill Suites in the Anaheim area on the other side of Disneyland that isn’t really walkable so don’t confuse the two.

15. Residence Inn Anaheim Resort/Convention Center
- Standard Room Price: $250-350
- Walking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Breakfast: Yes (hot)
- Pool: Standard pool + splash pad
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4-6
- Parking Costs: $24 (SAVE $12 when booking with Get Away Today)
Last but certainly not least is SpringHill’s next door neighbor (managed by the same company), Residence Inn Anaheim Resort/Convention Center. There is another Residence Inn a block farther away, so be sure not to confuse the two if you want walking distance.
Marriott is my hotel brand of choice on most occasions, so I’ve stayed in a lot of Residence Inns in my day – but never a Residence Inn like this one! Sleek, spacious and modern, this hotel looks more like a luxury property than a traditional extended stay hotel. Only 6 years old, the property still looks and feels fresh and new.
The rooftop pool area has a colorful splash pad that families are sure to enjoy. All rooms are suites with full kitchens included. The room type you may want to splurge on is the kids suite. This suite has two separate bedrooms and two full bathrooms off the main living area – one for kids with colorful decor and staggered bunk beds.

- Walking Time: 15-20 minutes
- Breakfast: No (has restaurants on-site to purchase)
- Pool: Standard pool
- Standard Room Occupancy: 4
- Parking Costs: $35
One of the newest hotels in Anaheim, the Westin Anaheim Resort has been pretty game-changing for Disneyland travelers looking for luxury for less. Westin is always a reliable brand my family stays in often, but this property is one of the best examples of a Westin I’ve experienced in our travels.
The Westin is on the same site where the Anabella Hotel used to be location. Unlike most other hotels on this list where guests would walk to the Harbor Boulevard entrance, guests of this new Westin enter through the Downtown Disney security checkpoint. This is the entrance where guests of the Disneyland Hotel and Paradise Pier currently enter. I love that entrance because lines are historically shorter there!
The restaurant options at this hotel are a standout. Fleming’s Steakhouse located in the hotel, and it’s a fine dining experience to compete with Napa Rose. The hotel also has a rooftop bar with amazing fireworks views. See the complete review of my stay at the Westin Anaheim for more details and tips.

17. Home2 Suites by Hilton Anaheim Resort Area

- Standard Room Price: $175-250
- Walking Time: 10-15 minutes
- Breakfast: yes (hot)
- Pool: Standard pool + splash pad
- Standard Room Occupancy: 6
- Parking Costs: $30
Tucked behind the Courtyard facing Manchester Avenue is a property that is actually two hotels in one that opened in 2021.
While I’d recommend both hotels generally, the Home2 Suites side of the building has a little more to offer traveling families. Rooms at the Home2 Suites have kitchenettes and come with free hot breakfast – both perks in which family travelers can really find value. Standard rooms are studio suites with two queen beds and a sleeper sofa that sleep 6. These rooms cost about the same as the standard rooms on the Hilton Garden Inn (which sleep 4 in two queens).
The hotels share a pool with a cute splash and play area and have restaurants on site as well.

Anaheim Desert Inn & Suites didn't even make the list? Don't understand.

@Leslie Harvey,
Totally--no problem!
We stayed there back in 2015 because it was our cheapest option that gave us 1- someplace we could walk back to during the day if needed; and 2- more than one room/suite (for a longer stay, we wanted to have a little more space/privacy)--all the other options we looked at that time were either missing one of those features and/or were more expensive. We stayed 11 nights, so for us (and we can't afford trips like this often) price was a big deal. The fact that they gave us a free room upgrade (instead of one bathroom, 2 queen beds and a pull-out, we had 2 bathrooms and 4 queen beds!) just cemented our positive impressions. :)

@Anthony, Anaheim Desert Inn & Suites has just one thing going for it in my opinion and that is location. But I've always felt it skimps on everything else and often is nevertheless priced comparably to hotels like the Fairfield that are more recently renovated and that have more amenities - especially of the kind that families want. Definitely would consider staying there on the right trip where we just need a close and clean place to sleep and the price is right but just doesn't quite make my top 15 in terms of overall offerings. But reasonable minds can certainly differ!

Hi! I just tried to use your promo code for the HoJo Anaheim and I got a message that said "A valid Promotional/Corporate Code is required to book this rate" any advice?
