Residence Inn - Anaheim Convention Center

Overall Rating: 3 Stars

Get all the amenities of home at the Residence Inn just behind California Adventure. This relatively new hotel feels fresh and new, features kitchens in every room and has a lot it can offer you and your family for a relaxing trip to the Disneyland Resort.

Location: 3 Stars

The Residence Inn is located just behind California Adventure on Katella Avenue. It can seem tricky to find because it's sandwiched between the Springhill Suites, the Hilton and the Anaheim Convention Center, but once you find it you see it's hard to miss. It's only about a block away from the Harbor Blvd entrance to Disneyland so you can easily walk there if you choose or, if you don't mind the extra walk, you can reduce your time in line for security you could also walk the other direction over to the West Gate by the Disneyland Hotel.

Accommodations: 3 Stars

The nice thing about the Residence Inn is that all rooms are "suites" so they all include home-like amenities like fully equipped kitchens. This can make it easier to save money on food because you can buy items from the Walgreen's and CVS stores located within the block and prepare them right in your hotel room.

Rooms generally have a separate master bedroom from the living area and kitchen. This is a wonderful option for parents who love their kids but would also love some time apart from them at the end of a long day!

Amenities: 4 Stars

There is a small rooftop pool available to guests and, since it's a Disneyland Good Neighbor Hotel, you can book your tickets and stay at the same time. Plus, for those who don't like to walk, this is on the ART shuttle route so you can get a lift to the Disneyland Resort for a small additional fee. However, the majority of added amenities for this hotel are in the rooms themselves.

Value: 3 Stars

Given the types of rooms offered, the Residence Inn is not poorly priced and guests can typically expect to pay between $120-$140/night for a standard room. It's somewhat pricer than some hotels that are closer to the main entrance, but you may find that it can offer things for your family that are worth the extra money and distance. We certainly plan to return here for another visit and suggest you consider it as well!
