Grand California prices - any suggestions? About This Page:

I'm trying to book a trip in mid-late October and everywhere I check, the price is $340/night. Period. Do the prices fluctuate closer to your vacation time? Are there any packages where you can get the rooms a bit cheaper? Does calling the hotel directly help at all? We're going mid-week so I would think the hotel wouldn't be as 'in demand'. I don't expect to get a screaming deal but didn't know if they lower prices during off times or not.

I want to stay off property but DH is insistant that with a young kid, we stay there if for proximity only.

I would definitly call the DL reservation line directly - (714) 956-MICKEY - and ask about rates for the dates of your stay. They will give you the rates for whatever views they have available at any or all of the 3 hotels. The rooms are all the same (with the exception of the suites), they just charge more for certain views. We have enjoyed all the views we have had and usually book the standard/courtyard view unless it is not available. For the proximity, Grand Cal. cannot be beat! You might try calling a travel agent if you need tickets also to see what the package price would be (we have AP's so I always call the hotel number to book our room separately). When you call the hotel, ask if they have a AAA discount (or AP if you have annual passes) available. Grand Cal. is our favorite DL resort!!!
