Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Fun for all ages, excellent atmospere
Disadvantages: Very expensive, not alot of toilet/baby changing facilities

...I have just recently came back from Disneyland Paris Resort. Well what can I say WOW. What a fab time was had by all the family. This was a family trip which included a range of ages from 18 months to a grand old age 60 year old. And I am pleased to say that there was something for all the ages concerned. I would say that the 2 very young ones did come a litle restless from waiting in ques. And yes some of these ques were a fair wait. Ranging from 30mins to 70mins. But the 6yr old throughly enjoyed every minute even the new Hollywood Hotel Terror ride. This is not a cheap holiday places I would advise if you are to go take more than enough cash, as things are very expensive. But never the less its is worth while going. The resturants in the parks themselves mainly consist of fast food which is alot more expensive than usual...

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Excellent park and great staff
Disadvantages: No shuttle bus between Davy Crockett ranch and Disneyland Park, and food

...Disneyland Paris was an extrememly good holiday for me and my family. There were five of us, including one disabled and the facilties were generally very good. For my sister, who is disabled, it was relatievly easy to find suitable rides and not have to wait in the long queues for a while, unlike everyone else. This was good, as it is hard for her to stay still in enclosed spaces for too long (such as the queues), and a 'blue' card, which can be enquired about at information enabled four people to go to the front, or nearer the front of queues rather than wait, which made life for us a lot easier. The card could be used on every ride and if you are travelling with a disabled person, you should definitely ask about one at an information point as soon as you get there. Unfortunately for us, we did not know about this until queueing lots...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris fun for all the family

Advantages: Great close alternative to US theme parks
Disadvantages: Not as 'Disney' as US counterparts, ot cheap!

...Disneyland Paris opened in 1992 and was the first Disney Park in Europe. I was lucky enough to visit the park in 1992 and have returned several times since. Since you could write a whole book about Disneyland Paris I have just picked out some of my favourite bits and top tips from over the years that I have been there. The Disneyland resort hotel is divided into two theme parks (the Disneyland Park/Magic Kingdom and the New Disney Studios, which opened last year). The resort features six hotels: The Disneyland Paris Hotel, Hotel New York, Newport Bay Club, Sequoia Lodge, Hotel Cheyenne, and Hotel Santa Fe and the Camp Davey Crockett Campsite. The hotels cater to a range of budgets, from the Santa Fe (from £105 per adult for three nights, including park pass, accommodation, and breakfast) up to the Disneyland Paris Hotel (from...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Visit Disneyland Paris on a Budget

Advantages: Low price for area, free shuttle service, adequate rooms
Disadvantages: No children's facilities or pool, inflated food and drink prices

...This is an "all you need to know guide" to staying at the Kyriad Hotel near Disneyland Paris for those who are looking to stay there. There are large chunks of this review that will be irrelevant to some but invaluable to others so I apologise in advance if the length puts anyone off reading it! Sections are labelled clearly so you can skip directly to the parts that interest you personally. ★ Booking my Trip ★ I stayed at the Disneyland Hotel Kyriad from Monday 11 February 2008 for three nights with my 2yr old son so we could visit the nearby Disneyland Paris. As with all Disney hotels, you can expect to pay drastically varying prices to stay here. If I'd have booked my stay directly through the Disneyland brochure or website, I'd have paid double what I did through the Eurostar website! Booking...

Disneyland Paris - a survival guide

Advantages: Disney madness at it's best!
Disadvantages: Dont forget to take spare credit cards....oh and remortgage you house too

...This isn't a review - more of a "Top tips survival guide" 1) During summer months make sure that you have remembered to take the sun cream with you. (sounds obvious i know, but we left ours at the hotel and rather studpidly thought we'd buy some more. At £22 for a small bottle of factor 30, my husband was sent back to the hotel, complaining bitterly, to go and get ours.) 2) Take your own bottles of coke and water. (We got a case of coke and water from our local cash and carry and took it over with us.) Then to keep it cool fill the sink with cold water and leave the bottles floating in it. 3) If #2 isn't an option - take a WIDE neck sports bottle with you (it will be easier to fill it from the plentiful water fountains if it has a wider neck) 4) Take fruit and healthy snacks with you. (Disneyland is full of greasy fried food...

Review of Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Fun for all the family
Disadvantages: Expensive

...I went to Disneyland Paris last year just before Christmas. In total there were 4 adults and 4 children ranging from 4 to 10 months. I was really looking forward to it as I thought at this time of the year it would be magical and we were staying on site at the Davy Crocket Ranch which would make it extra special. We went by Ferry which the children loved. My son was 22 months old and loved the excitement of going on a ferry. When we reach France we then had a 4 hour journey to get to the park which seemed to last forever. If you can afford I would fly as it would take a lot of the stress out of the journey. We stayed in a cabin on the Davy Crocket ranch and was expecting something special as it was Disney. I was sadly let down. I know it was the budget accomadation but with Disney comes certain expectations. The furniture was basic...

Disneyland Paris

Advantages: Something for everyone
Disadvantages: Very tiring for little ones

...I've been to Disneyland Paris three times now and myself and family (husband and two girls 4 and 7) love it. We've been once for the Summer season and twice for the Christmas season. The last time we went was late November 2002. As there are some really good reports about the parks I thought I'd just add some tips which might help anyone going or thinking of going. Eurostar We travelled direct from Ashford to Marne Le Vallee which took just under 3 hours (slightly longer than normal because of the fire strike). Eurostar food is notoriously expensive and very bad value-for-money. The queues are bad and not too be recommended with hungry kids in tow. We took a packed lunch and it made life so much easier (and cheaper!!). Although our bags were checked (and I was frisked) at Ashford noone seemed to mind. The other good thing...

Disneyland Paris & Hotel Cheyenne

Advantages: Lots for kids to do
Disadvantages: Hotel was awful and general attitudes in the park weren't great.

...This was our first trip to Disneyland Paris, and most likely will be our last. I'm now more tempted to save up for a holiday in Orlando, rather than go through this all again!!! We stayed at the Cheyenne Hotel, one of the Disney hotels. I had read a few reviews beforehand which didn't look too promising, but had already booked! On arrival, after travelling from 8.30am and arriving at the hotel at 5.30pm we were greated by a rather miserable looking lady on the check in desks! She gave us our passes, told us that as we were staying in the hotel we could enter the parks two hours early (8am) and then informed us the earliest breakfast she could offer was 9.45! Pretty pointless letting us know we could get into the park early then telling us we couldn't! We stayed in Geronimo which was the furthest building away from the parks...

I really hate Disneyland paris

Advantages: noine
Disadvantages: Overcrowded, Unsafe, Unfriendly employees Misleading

...Last week as we planned before, me, my mum, my husband and 2 children (10 and 3) decided to travel to Paris and visit Disneyland. I bought the ticket on the internet and printed off at home before we travel. On 3rd July 2009 we arrived at the park about 12.30 pm. Parked the car and head toward the park. We got our fast passes and clear stamps on our hands before entering the park. At the beginning we were very excited. Specially my little one was very happy. After a while because park was very busy and we had to go back to England the same night, I decided to go to the Walt Disney Studios Park to get the 2 fastpass for attractions that we wanted to ride before we go home. I spoke to my husband and asked him to stay with the children at the Space Mountain and I will be back in no time. When I went out of the park none of the parks didn...
