Disneyland, Paris, Paris

Introduction. This review is purely about Disneyland Resort in Paris. Now, I first went here in 1997 and since then I have returned on no less than five occasions. Each time has been brilliant and so this review is designed to give you as comprehensive an overview as possible, exploring accommodation in the Disney hotels, ease of access, of course the parks themselves and a whole lot more. Now I am fortunate enough to have visited the parks at different times of year and used different modes of transport to get to it. So here goes… Well allow me if you will, to give you a brief introduction ... more

Disneyland Paris was opened in 1992. It is situated about 45 minutes away from Charles De Gaulle Airport. Eilidh our newly 4 year old, had been desperate to see the Disney princesses and with her being near her birthday we decided that we should book and go over the weekend of her birthday.

Disneyland Paris is a fantastic place, and is the third Disney park I've visited. This park brings the number of Disney resorts to four: the others are Disneyland in Japan, Disneyworld in Florida, and Disneyland in California. I've decided to update this old review to refresh it and incorporate the new things I know about it, as by now I must have been there more than 70 times. The Paris site is situated just out of Paris, and is about half an hour by train: the best way to travel in Paris, due to the low cost (£17.48 for a week long unlimited ticket to take you all over Paris: from Disney to ... more

For those of you that read my reviews, about me etc you will know that I have long been looking forward to my short break to Disneyland Paris. I booked a 3 day, 2 night package, staying at the hotel Cheyenne (on site) and travelling by Eurostar. The cost of the accommodation, which includes a 3 day pass to both Disneyland and Disney Studios was £140 per person including breakfast (continental). The Eurostar was an additional £100 per person. Right, the beginning is always the best place to start so I will tell you a little about travelling by Eurostar. EUROSTAR: I booked the tickets for myself ... more
