has anyone ever stayed at the Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel in Anaheim?
What was it like? Were the rooms big, was it worth the money? Good access to the parks? The dining? What was your overall impression and experience?
Of course, I’m a HUGE Disney fan, so that might make a difference. It was really convenient — one can ride the Grizzly River Run and not worry about getting wet, ’cause the hotel room is just steps away! Plus there’s a separate entrance to California Adventure, which is nice. No long lines.
The rooms are pretty, but not spectacular. They have some nice “touches”, but I really can’t say they’re anything special. They’re nicely decorated in the same “craftsman” style as the rest of the hotel.
The lobby of the hotel is really beautiful. There’s a HUGE stone fireplace that is the centerpiece, with high ceilings and exposed beams. I highly recommend going there for some relaxing at the end of your day, or going to check it out even if you’re not staying there.
The dining was great. The Storytellers Cafe has a great character breakfast if you’re traveling with kids, and the Napa Rose is a delicious up-scale restaurant ~ not really suited to kids, but you could bring them.
I hesitate to say it’s “worth the money”, because it is outrageously expensive, but I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there and will most definitely stay there again when I feel like “splurging”.
