| Paradise Pier Hotel Hi everyone! My DH and I are planning our first trip to DL for Decmber, 2009!  We are very excited! We were wondering if anyone could give us opinions or info on the Paradise Pier Hotel. We really want to stay on the resort property if possible, and Paradise Pier seems to be the least expensive choice. Thanks! Jackie

| We love PPH. We have always had a wonderful time there. The service is excellent, I would say they have the best housekeeping staff of all the three hotels, at least that has been our experience. Get an upper level room with a park view, its awsome. The roof top pool is cool. You can watch the fireworks from the roof top pool areaThe only down side to the PPH is the walk back from Disneyland so, always take the Monorail back. Your feet will still be hurting but its not as long of a walk as from the entrance of DL.

| As for hotels on property, you get what you pay for in terms of location. The PP is the least expensive, and the farthest from the part entrance. I find that the walk back to PP is a whole lot farther than to the Anaheim Resort Transit bus stops that take you back to your off-property hotel. On the other hand, the closest on-property hotel is the GC, but you'll pay an arm and a leg to enjoy the awesome location. Good luck with choosing your hotel!

| We enjoyed our stay there. It is the least expensive of the three and you are still surrounded by the magic! We have also stayed at the Disneyland Hotel as well and didn't feel that there was a huge difference between the 2.

| I stayed in PP in 2003 and I have no complaints. My kids were and are older, so the walk was never an issue. Actually, if you cut through GC, it is a much shorter walk, than walking down to the end of DTD, almost to DH and then over. Instead, from DTD take the walkway into the GC lobby, (always a special treat) then walk out the front door. Paradise Pier will be right across the street. I agree with staying in a park view room. That is where we stayed and it was totally awsome! The special entrance to California Adventure (if it is still there) is right across the street from the hotel. Have fun planning!

| PPH is very nice, and the pool on top is the bomb, but like one poster said, you can take the hotel transit buses faster and get back to a hotel than you can this one. But it's your choice.
