“The place to stay in Anahiem”
what a great hotel!The staff were, Always willing to help and the gift shop is very reasonable. I will be back for sure. Had a blast and walking distance from disney land and McDonalds..
“CLEAN, EASY TO GET TO, CLOSE TO HWY”
CLEAN, EASY TO GET TO, CLOSE TO HSY
“Perfect for families!”
Located near Disneyland, very clean, great pool play area...we can't wait to go back!
“Would stay there again.”
Very comfortable and clean hotel. Only about a 10 minute walk to Disneyland. Didn't have time to enjoy the swimming pools but they looked very inviting. If we go back to Disneyland I will stay in this hotel again.
“Fun Time at Disneyland!”
This was a great hotel to stay in. it wasn't too far and the room was big and roomy!
“Overall comfort without the price of Grand Californian”
This hotel was almost exactly what I had expected after reading reviews on Trip Advisor. We got a family (kid) suite that had 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. The kids had a bunk bed and a single pull out. Location was close enough although I'd highly recommend a stroller for any kids 6 and under. Our oldest is 6 and he took a few turns riding back after a long Disney day. The boys loved the pirate water park area. We went in early November and it was warm enough to play out there in bathing suits. There is also a hot tub in the play area, pool towels, and an attendant on duty up in the area where the slide starts. It is definitely a splash park. The in-hotel store had lots of breakfast items as well as all kinds of sundries. We bought very nice bananas, cereal, mini doughnuts, etc.. The ladies in the store provided plastic spoons, knives, etc... and while the prices were just ok, the convenience was awesome. Overall, the street fronting the entrance is just a lot of hotels and cheap-ish restaurants. I would have loved a real grocery store within walking distance. Besides that, my only negative surprise was some mid-day maintenance work on the outside of our building that was quite loud in quick, short bursts. That didn't last long though. I'd stay here again. For the price it was just right. We may upgrade to Grand Californian next time as our boys will be able to swim independently but I liked the staff, the room set-up, and the splash park.
“Nicer than most”
Although this hotel didnt have as high of star rating, it is much nicer than others that I've stayed out in the area. I've noticed most show pictures of really nice lobbies and the hotel is a rundown dump. This is true for the Menage that we stayed at last time- (beautiful lobby, stinky old room.) I would difinately choose this Howard Johnson again and it is really close to Disney as well as a buch of restuarants within walking distance.
“Plenty of Flair for the Buck”
Since you are going to spend your time at Disneyland or in the village, why spend the money on a hotel that plays like a theme park too? HoJo's was plenty of fun, the pools were small, but had themes and were sufficient for and evening or morning dip before Disneyland. No restaurant or bar? Who needs it when the Disneyland Village has a terrific selecti.on of ALL and is a short walk away
“Always love staying here”
It was my second time staying at this hotel and I love it. For the past two times I've been to Disneyland, this has been my hotel of choice because it's right across the street and within an easy walking distance of the entrance. The rooms are always nice and the service is great. I'll be coming back, for sure.
