I got this hotel on a discount website deal, but knew this was the hotel I would get after doing lots of research. Although my preference would have been to stay at a hotel onsite at Disney, this was 1/4 of the price. The hotel is very nicely furnished and a large size for one room. There was a very... More

We came to Anaheim for 3 days at the Disney parks, and chose this hotel because of a tip from another reviewer. The hotel is near the toy story parking lot, but not 50 feet. You actually have to walk around the block to get into the shuttle area, probably about 1/2 mile or so. The staff were very friendly,... More

My husband and I go to Disneyland quite often, and we have tried about 5 different hotels in the area. Red Lion is in a great location, and is a fairly decent hotel for regular standards, and for Disneyland area hotels, it is fantastic. The rooms are modern looking, albeit cheaply updated and have a few stains, rips, tears, etc...,... More

First to be fair, I must say that I have stayed at many Red Lion hotels and they have all been wonderful. This hotel is no different in that the rooms are spacious, modern, and clean. My only complaints about the room itself is that the shower pressure could be improved and the walls are paper thin and the wireless... More

This was a great hotel. Very beautiful and quiet. The staff was very friendly. Checking in and out was quick and easy. I knew about having to pay for parking ahead of time but it was still a little surprising.

I found the hotel pleasantly surprising. My huband and I stayed here to take our son to Disneyland for his 5th birthday. We brought our 18 month old daughter with as well.

We stayed 5 nights at this hotel. It came with free American breakfast. It was a good breakfast, but eating the same food everyday became boring, it did save a lot of money though.
