The Del Sol Inn (Right across the street from Disneyland)

My family and I make the trek to Disneyland at least once a year. We usually stay for at least 3 nights and head to the park every day. When considering where to stay, I have two top priorities. First, I have to be able to walk back to the hotel every day for lunch and naps, so the hotel I stay in has to be within walking distance to Disneyland. Second, because there are at least 7 of us that go every year, price is the second most important thing.

Lately, the Del Sol Inn has been the perfect fit for our family. Located just south of the Harbor Blvd cross walk (to Disneyland), it is a slightly shorter walk to get to Disneyland than if we were to stay in the Disneyland Hotel! It is also typically the lest expensive option of all the hotels across the street. They offer a light continental breakfast every morning beginning at 7:00 am which is located on the first floor near the lobby. There is cereal, fruit, donuts, and other pastries, as well as juice. Be aware that the Del Sol, like all of the hotels in the area do, charges a parking fee for each night you park there of $14.

This year, we got a room with a bunk bed which the kids loved! Here's a look at our room:

Our room had two queen beds.

And here's the vanity, mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker.

The bathroom area was a little small, but worked just fine.

When we go to Disneyland, we don't spend a lot of time at our hotel. We are there to basically only eat lunch every day and sleep. Because of this, we don't need anything too extravagant - which the Del Sol definitely is not. It is, however, nicely kept up, has a great staff, and is perfect for what my family needs. You can visit the Del Sol website here and can also check out another blog post of mine called, 'Where to stay at Disneyland' which talks about other hotel options as well.
