after going thru the website, I imagined this great Hotel, with Disney atmoshere all over it. Reality - huge hotel, with "conference" feel written all over it. I booked 2 adjoining rooms with a Disney Downtown view. Rooms were far apart, no view just a couple of trees, and we paid $625 per room per night. Service - check in... more

Not only was this hotel super convienently located, but the subtleness of Mickeys in our room was super cool! It's wasn't overbearring MICKEY everywhere, just little things that made it so nice. The beds were awesome.... down comforters... friendly staff, great room service and super clean. Everyone loved it, no complaints at all. The parking wasnt super easy, but the... more

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights. We wanted to make the most of our 2 night stay at Disneyland so we decided to stay right next to Disneyland. The hotel is located right next to Disneyland and California Adventure. In fact, it literally took us 5 minutes to walk back from California Adventure to our hotel room!... more

This Grand Californian's location can't be beat. Short walk into the CA adventure park, and maybe 5 minutes walk to Disneyland. From our room we were able to watch the fireworks each night. The room was very clean. We had to call housekeeping for lotion and kleenex (which weren't replenished when our room was cleaned). The products were delivered quickly... more

As a surprise, our friends also booked into the hotel for 2 nights even though they only live... more

I've stayed at the Grand Californian 3 times. My first two visits were wonderful. However, my last trip I had booked a totally of 3 rooms for 4 nights. All three of our rooms were suppose to be "Theme park views" none were. Instead they placed us over the pool with a great view of the construction and noise. Normally... more

Check in was quick as we arrived in the early afternoon on a weekday. The cast member offered us a room that was ready for us in the new wing. As I was celebrating a birthday she gave us trio of ballons tied to look like Micky, a signed 8 x 10 photo of Minnie and a button to wear.... more

What a beautiful and serene hotel with unbeatable location so close to the parks. It's difficult to stay anywhere else once you've stayed here. We checked out hotels surrounding Disneyland for our next trip but couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. Beds were very comfy with down comforters and pillows and nice linens. Rooms are not large but have a mini... more
