Advice on DLP hotels please

[suse66]

Hi all,

We are looking at a long weekend at DLP before embarking on a river cruise. I've heard some of the in park hotels are a bit tired. Which ones would you recommend? Are there off-site hotels within walking distance to the parks?

Thank you!

My sister has recently stayed at Sequoia Lodge and enjoyed it. She said it’s a 5 minute walk to the Village and 10 to the parks. She used to stay off site but doesn’t recommend as the bus service can be crazy busy and lots of queue jumpers. After staying onsite she has said she will never go back off site.
The Disneyland hotel has been recently renovated and is their most expensive hotel but looks beautiful.

We have only stayed on-site. As stated above, The Disneyland Hotel just reopened last year after a remodel. It is gorgeous, but very pricey. New York/Marvel is the next newest and has a fun, modern, character vibe. Sequoia Lodge and Newport Bay have been reported of as "tired" and in need of a refresh, but we stay at Sequoia Lodge and like it. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at Newport Bay either.

How much time do you plan to spend in the hotel and/or room?

If you just need a place to sleep, does it matter that some of the woodwork needs a new coat of paint? 'Tired' is only an issue if you spend a lot of time there (in my opinion). All the rooms are in a perfectly fine state.

The 2 newest / most recently refurbished hotels are the Disneyland Hotel and Marvel.

The Disneyland Hotel is gorgeous, but it is not good value for money, especially if you spend an entire day at the park. It is expensive and very overpriced. Marvel is better value, but you still pay a lot for the Marvel brand.

The off site hotels within walking distance (30 minutes) are not in a better state than the Disney hotels.
