OOps...sorry, never mind......didn't notice this thread is for Disneyland...the link I sent was for WDW.
Is there a way to reserve a room for one night without having to pay for it when you make the reservation? Like if you call as opposed to reserve online?
Does anyone know where I can see a recent daily activity schedule (hotel/pool/movies)? Thanks!
I'm not sure where you got this information but I have seen anything indicating that there is any construction going on now. The DLH just finished a major renovation and I was under the impression that next up was the GCH.
If you're truly concerned I would call the hotel directly.
They are all located on the 11th floor of the Adventure Tower. If I remember correctly, the concierge lounge is straight ahead once you get off the elevator (it faces DTD). To the left of that on the same side of the hall is the Fairytale, directly to the right of the lounge is the Mickey Penthouse. Across the hall and down a few doors from the Penthouse is the Big Thunder (I think overlooking the pool).Also across from the E ticket lounge is one/two room suite that overlooks the pool. There might also be 4 or 5 regular rooms that connect to the one room suites on that level. I can find room numbers if you need but hopefully that helps!Hi, Does anyone have a map showing the room numbers for the Adventure Tower? More specifically where the concierge lounge and signature suites are located.
Thanks
If you call the hotel directly you can put in your requests, no matter where you booked. I booked through Orbitz last year and then called the hotel to request a high floor with fireworks view and we got it! We only paid for a standard room, so we were very happy.I just booked DLH through Orbitz for a few weeks from now. So excited to stay at DLH for the first time! I've stayed at GC twice and love the proximity to the parks, but thought the rooms were tiny and have always wanted to stay at DLH.
A quick question: Our booking clearly states we are 4 people. All the room types (we booked Deluxe View), seemed to state a king bed or 2 queens, but with a capacity of 5. Do the King bed rooms all have a sleeper sofa?
Another question: Has anyone had luck with specific requests for 3rd party bookings? Were you able to call DLH and make a tower request?
Thanks in advance!

From what I've read about the sleeper sofas, they are more like daybeds and can only accommodate one person. So, if you are four people they will put you in a 2 queen bed room. That would be a good thing to confirm when you call the hotel. The CMs I've spoken with were very helpful.
Hello everyone! I just booked my first stay at the DLH in November!
I paid the deposit with my CC. I know the balance is not due until check in but I would like to pay it off with my giftcards. I would rather not travel with that much "cash" on hand. Can I call them with my giftcard number and apply it to the reservation prior to arrival? I have always done this at WDW but I know the two destinations are completely different.
Thanks!!
I tried to pay ahead with gift cards for our recent GCH stay, but was told they do not have the ability to take gift card payments over the phone. I then tried to pay with them upon check-in and was told I had to wait until a night was billed on the account. So, I ended up just putting them in the safe and then paying upon check out. It would be nice if they could take them ahead of time. It took quite a bit of time for them to run $2000 worth of gift cards at check out.
I don't know if you've seen it mentioned yet, but you can now combine your Disney gift cards at https://disneygiftcard.com/. I haven't tried it yet, but I've read on the budget board that several people have done it. You can have 5 cards up to $1,000 each. I plan on doing this for my stay at CGH in Feb. I think it will save us all from the headaches of processing so many cards! I just wish they would let us reserve a room with a gift card. I'm not sure why they don't allow that. I have called and a CM told me that I can just have them refund my credit card at check-in and then recharge it to the gift card.That's weird, maybe it's a new policy. I was able to apply all of mine at check-in and it also took a long time to do. The woman checking us in was pretty rude about us using the gift cards (Although, I assume this is common at all of the DLR hotels), but that's a whole other thread. After double checking the cards, I realized afterwards that one of the cards had $450 on it when it definitely should not have. I had about 8 or 10 cards, so it was lucky I just tossed them all in my purse since I usually let my DD4 play with them when they're spent. When I compared to the bill, I noticed it was planning on charging my credit card for that $450. After many hours and going to the manager on duty, they fixed it, but it was such a huge headache. I'm doing it again next month, so here's hoping it's a smoother transaction

Maybe the guy checking me in just didn't feel like dealing with it so told me it couldn't be done. Wouldn't be the first time! I am glad that we can now combine cards! That will make it so much easier!Last November I paid $2000 worth of gift cards at check in without a problem.
