The Paradise Pier Hotel at Disneyland Resort is one that is appealing to many families who want to stay at a Disney owned property, but don't want to pay the big bucks for the Disneyland Hotel or Grand Californian. But is the Paradise Pier Hotel worth the cost? What is the theming of the hotel? Is it Disney enough? How far is the walk to the parks from Paradise Pier Hotel? We are covering it all for you in this episode of our podcast. The Paradise Pier Hotel at Disneyland Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel is a popular option for families that want all the on-site perks from a Disneyland Resort hotel, but don't want to pay the big bucks. But unlike Walt Disney World, Disneyland's cheapest hotel is in no way a value resort. We are diving into this hotel and covering everything from theming, to room layouts, amenities, and distance to the parks, all in an effort to discover if this hotel is worth it's price tag. And what is that price tag? You might be shocked to find out. In This Episode Here is what you can look forward to in this episode of the Disneyland with Kids Podcast Should You Stay At The Disneyland Hotel? In this episode, Julie, from Mom Rewritten, and Becca, from This Crazy Adventure Called Life, discuss Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel. From layout, to dining, and even the price tag, they are sharing everything they know so that you can decide if it is worth the cost to stay at this hotel. The Paradise Pier Hotel is often a draw for travelers who want the perks that come with staying on site, but want a smaller price tag than the other Disney owned properties at Disneyland. The hotel was not originally a Disney owned property, but Disney purchased it in 1995, calling it the Disneyland Pacific Hotel, Renaming it Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel in 2000. Does the fact that it was not originally a Disney property show? Is the hotel up to date? And what is the strangest part about this hotel?

Disney's first resort to be located inside a theme park, this six-story, deluxe 750-room resort celebrates the turn-of-the-century romantic Craftsman movement of California. Designed to capture the artistic exploration of California's coastlines, with its Monterey pines and redwood forests, Disney's Grand Californian Hotel is layered with the memories of the arroyo craftsman, the mission pioneers, the Plein Air school of painters and daring architecture. Whimsical décor touches feature famous woodland friends, such as Bambi, Thumper and Owl.
