From the moment we arrived, this Marriott made our Disneyland trip simple and stress free. The hotel is a short, easy walk across Harbor Boulevard, so we parked once and did not use the car again until checkout two days later. Valet and self-parking were well organized, and the staff managed the busy Christmas week crowd with calm efficiency.
The building has a mid-century modern look and is well kept. Our room was clean and comfortable. I upgraded to a Disney theme room. It was cheerful and practical, though not as over the top as I had hoped. Housekeeping kept everything tidy, and the bed was a welcome place to rest after long park days.
We did not eat in the hotel, but there are plenty of nearby options. Panera Bread is next door and McDonald’s is close by. A short walk brings you to several restaurants serving Mexican and Italian food. That was handy because we could not get reservations at the restaurants in Downtown Disney or inside the parks. Inside the hotel there is an independent shop with a good selection of Disney merchandise at lower prices than the park. That was a great find for souvenirs.
Security was visible in the parking areas, which made us feel safe when walking to and from Harbor Blvd. The staff were professional and kept operations running smoothly. For travelers who prefer Marriott and want the easiest access to Disneyland, this hotel is a solid choice. It delivers convenience, consistent service, and a location that makes visiting the park much less stressful.
Overall, our stay was convenient, comfortable, and enjoyable. The location is the main draw, and that convenience turned a busy holiday visit into a relaxed and memorable trip.
