“Great Service! Where have you been all these years?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

Recently stayed for a few nights to celebrate my daughter's birthday at Disneyland. We arrived very late the first night, we called on our way in and was impressed to see the crib in our room ready to setup! Did not expect to see that actually happen. Breakfast is par, good but not bad at all for being complimentary. I was shocked to see the complimentary dinner provided Monday through Thursday, we had no complaints here and it definitely saves some money. We had some TV and Bathroom light issues, nothing serious, but mentioned this one day on our way out the park for the day. TV was fixed but nothing in regards to the bathroom light, not a big deal, however I mentioned this as we checked out and without hesitation our parking was reimbursed....... Great service is easy to provide why can't the other hotels or even motels pick up on such a simple concept. Keep up the great service, we will definitely stay here again on our next visit. Only request for the future is to honor the online price for extending our stay one more day. We booked our room through the homewood website at a great rate and realized we had to extend our stay one more night once we arrived and were told this rate could not be honored for one more addiitional night. Did not stop us from staying the additional night... you had us at great service.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We agree with you that it easy to deliver great service, but that starts with having great associates working at the hotel. We are very fortunate to have such a caring staff who's main goal is to ensure each guest has an experience similar to yours. I'm sorry we weren't able to match the rate you had when you extended an additional night. We have many conventions in Anaheim this time of year that sell-out the entire area which would cause us to restrict our online rates. We hope to see you again very soon.

“Great little hotel!”

We stayed at the Homewood Suites while in Anaheim for business. We had stayed at a few of the larger hotels in the past but we had several positive experiences with Homewood Suites in other cities so we decided to give this one a chance. The location of the hotel is wonderful! Many of our associates stayed in hotels closer to the convention center but it was nice to be a little farther away near less crowded restaurants and across the street from Target. There was a free shuttle that took us to and from the convention center and could also take us to Disney. There is free breakfast every morning and free dinner Monday-Thursday. The food was pretty good! They always had free coffee and water in the lobby which had a fireplace in the middle. The hotel was VERY clean and quiet. Parking was reasonable, $12/day. I would stay here again and would recommend the hotel for business travelers or families.

While we get a majority of reviews on this site relating to visits to Disneyland, we strive to also be an ideal location for our guests that are in the area for business. You made some very good points about the convenience and value in staying at the Homewood Suites and we thank you for posting this review. We hope to see you next year for the same convention.....or even sooner if you find yourself in the Orange County/Anaheim area.

“Great for Family of 5 Visiting Disneyland”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Our family of five (3 teen daughters) stayed at the Homewood Suites Anaheim MGA just before Christmas using HHonors points. This hotel was very nice and a good choice for staying near Disneyland with the family. The staff were very friendly and courteous. Our room and the hotel generally were clean and well maintained. Minor issues with the room (slow bathtub drain, etc) were dealt with promptly. The room was comfortable--a typical Homewood Suites room. We did not use the hotel's Disneyland shuttle but drove each day and parked in the Toy Story lots just up Harbor Blvd--this worked well for us. Breakfast was the one disappointment--somewhat below average for HS. The staff did a good job of keeping the breakfast stocked and the area clean, and there was adequate seating, but the food choices were limited and of somewhat poor quality--no whole fresh fruit, no yogurt containers, runny scrambled eggs. Still, we would definitely consider staying here again to visit Disneyland.

Room Tip: As many others have said, it is best to get a room on the 2d or 3d floor so you can use the stairs...

Thank you for taking the time to post this review. It's always nice to have a little extra room to unwind after a long day at Disneyland and we're glad that you and your family had the same experience. We are always looking to improve our breakfast and we will take your suggestions to help us get better. We are grateful that you indicated you will return again in the future hope you have an even better experience next time.

“Home sweet home!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

We stayed here in Anaheim for our honeymoon. If you knew my husband and my self you would know our vacations are always less than stellar. Little did we know that the NAMM con. was the same week we would be in Anaheim. When we arrived to the Homewoods we were tired from an 8 hour air flight, drama with our lay overs, and issues with the dollar car rental in lax and many other issues that plagued us on our way to the hotel. Luis was the manager on staff working that night and he checked us in and even listened to me complain about the day. He was so nice and sweet and they even sent us a card with a bottle of wine and candies because it was our honeymoon. The staff has been A+ the whole time we have been here very help and friendly. The other wonderful feature is starbucks is neighboring in the parking lot next door. I am a starbucks addict this was a wonderful bonus. We would get the free breakfast at the hotel and bring the food up to our room. It does get a little loud and crowded with kids in the morning for breakfast. So take it back to your room. We stayed in 605 and had a great view of the fireworks at night from disney. This hotel is perfect, you have target across the street, outback, oggis pizeria, red robin, joe crap shack almost in the parking lot. That made it so easy to grab something to eat. We had a kitchenette, we would go to target pick up some items and make them to save on the cost. Just an FYI... there is no oven in the kitchenette. But, they do offer a coffee maker, microwave, fridge, toaster, 2 burner stove top. The bedroom has 2 closets!!And one has a mirrored door which i used to make sure my looks before i left or put on makeup. I am an Hotel snob and i'll be honest i didn't want to leave. The only tip is make sure you leave the bathroom door shut when taking a shower. I take HOT showers and the condensation from the steam set off the fire alarm in the bedroom. I just opened and shut the bedroom door to get it to turn off. The bedrooms also offer windows you can open. I love fresh air so that was a nice feature. It was in the 60s so we didn't use the pool or hot tub.

“Lovely and perfect.”

I really liked this hotel. I was skepticle because of the pictures of teh wonderful gold colored blankets, but it was not bad! The only thing that would have been nice if there was a table and chairs. Small children cant really eat off thier laps, so that proved a challange at times. The kitchen was perfect and couldnt ask for much more. Breakfast was good the usual scrabmled eggs, sausage or bacon, waffles, toast, yogurt, oatmeal... It woudl be hard for someone not to find something they liked! They have fresh coffee in the lobby and it didnt matter what time of day you were always greeted with a smile. ART is route number 1 which is awesome because it is closed to the gate. When you legs are dead at the end of the night it is a pleasure to drag yourself to this stop and not have to go any farther! Disney closed at 8pm while we were there, so we did not get to enjoy the managers reception with a light meal beer & wine. It shares a parking lot with a few resteraunts so grabbing a Red Robin burger was nice. Target is across the street so grabbing some snack food and milk was simple! Very good and the real only complaint i would have is the elevator is very slow. However I would not judge my stay based on that!
