Family of 7?

Postby 4xMommy » Sun Jan 25, 2009 3:23 pm

We have 5 small children, aged 7 to 15 months at the time we hope to visit Disneyland. What is the best/most-affordable option for us? I realize we'll need two rooms, but is it possible to have connecting rooms guaranteed? We do not want to be split up. We don't need the Disney view, or anything fancy, just comfy and enough room for all of us.

Thanks!

Hello and welcome to the Boards! :]

We would love to have you and your family come and stay with us! Your best option is to book two rooms, definitely: we require at least one person over the age of 18 in each room. If you let our In-House Reservations Agent [714.776.6120] know that you are a family with children, they will note a High Request for the rooms to be connecting; unfortunately, we cannot guarantee it, because we cannot pre-block rooms prior to check-in, but we can definitely note it, and our Front Desk Staff always does their best to try to accommodate requests like that! :]

The best room type to book is a Standard Pavillion Room [NDD1], because there are a lot of connecting rooms within that type.

I hope this helps and that we hear from you soon!

Great, thanks! A couple more questions:

If we are assigned to "separate" rooms, and then connecting rooms become available a night or two into our stay, could we switch? How would we be notified? And if we're in separate rooms, would we hopefully be able to get rooms close to each other?

Also, we drive a 15 passenger van. Last time we were in Anaheim, we drove a minivan and it was hard even with that smaller vehicle to get into a hotel parking spot. Is there ample parking for vehicles at the HoJo?

Thanks again!

Hi again!

We don't do room moves in the middle of stays, generally. Of course, if that is something that your family is really set on- you can always talk to the Manager on Duty when you arrive.

Parking shouldn't be a problem for you here, and I did want to reiterate that parking is free for our guests here! :D

Hope this helps!
