Holiday Inn 4 **** Hotel at Marne La Vallee

Advantages: Close to Disneyland Parks, Village and Bus and Train Stations
Disadvantages: Around 27 miles from central Paris

...This hotel is only a mile away {if that} from the Disney Parks, village and bus and train stations. Reached by a free pink shuttle bus {no.54} of which runs every 10-15 minutes stopping at hotels my travel explorers, Hotel Kyriad, Movenpick Dream Castle and Holiday Inn. The Holiday Inn Hotel itself is very clean and has a small shop selling gifts and phonecards, check in was easy and very quick. We stayed in room 3303 of which was a very large double bed, very clean and tidy. As we stayed here for our honeymoon for 11 nights the room was cleaned and the bed made with fresh linen everyday.There was even a complimentery bowl of fruit waiting for us in our room. The food however at the hotel is expensive and not very good in the evening, my husband however said that the breakfast was excellent. There is also an ice machine...

Disney's Cheyenne Hotel - What An Amazing Place!!!

Advantages: So many to mention
Disadvantages: None at all

...::::: What is the Cheyenne Hotel::::: The Disney's Hotel Cheyenne is a wild west based theme hotel. It is made to look as if it is in the wild west, with horses, cowboys etc. You've seen all the movies. It does look real, and every detail has been put in to make it look "wild west". The main reception building, where the restaurant is, and other hotel buildings surrounding it have funky wild west writing on the sides of the buildings which says things like "Saloon" "Jail" and "Billy The Kid". This is a good idea, not the names of each hotel building but gives the hotel that extra feel of the hotel area. There are around 10 different hotel blocks, each separated. The main building is where most people go at breakfast, at dinner if they choose to eat there, or when they check in, or out. This is a good place to meet as a meeting point...

Review of Disney's Hotel Cheyenne, Marne-la-Vallee

Fun at the explorers hotel.

Advantages: Price, Family rooms, family friendly, free shuttle to disney parks.
Disadvantages: No complaints.

...We stayed at the explores hotel for a weekend, there were 5 of us, 2 children and 3 adults. We booked this hotel through the eurostar website and found the price compared to Disney hotels very cheap (approximately £250 for 5 people for 2 nights bed and breakfast), we were also attracted to this hotel because it seemed very family orientated and offered larger rooms. The hotel is situated approximately 1 mile from the disneyland resort paris. We drove ourselves and found the hotel with no problems, as we got closer to disneyland the hotel was signposted, the hotel offered a large free carpark. We checked in in a matter of minutes and the staff were very friendly. We arrived in our room and were very pleased with what we found. In the main room there was a double bed and 2 single beds, a wardrobed a chest of drawers a dressing...

Explorers Hotel - a family-friendly hotel.

Advantages: cheap, friendly, clean, child-friendly
Disadvantages: none

...A truly excellent base from which to explore Disneyland! We went for 8 days with our children (5 and 3). The hotel staff were polite and friendly and aareas of the hotel were clean and air conditioned (great during a very hot week in August!) The real appeal of this hotel, however is the child-friendliness of it all. The soft play area is located next to the breakfast area, which meant that our children could go and play in safely whilst we loaded up on caffeine ready for a day exploring the parks. The pool was excellent and provided an ideal opportunity to escape "Disney-itus" for a while! Breakfast was a typical continental breakfast (with cornflakes and chocolate flakes for "fussy children!) The hotel kindly request that "No food be taken from the breakfast room", however most people seemed to have rather large rucksacks and furtive...

Review of The Explorers Hotel Disneyland, Marne-la-Vallee

How I learned what "wheeeeee" was in 10 different languages

Advantages: Close to the park, has adjoining rooms for families
Disadvantages: Not the quietest for my particular room

...On visiting Disneyland Paris is January 2008, I researched hotel and travel options extensively in order to make sure I got my term-time holiday (the kids being preschoolers) at the best possible rate. Reading up on www.disboards.com and trip advisor this hotel kept coming up as being good value and also being the only one I could find to have a family room with and adjoining children's bedroom as opposed to curtained bunk beds. For this reason I decided to book it, at the time it was a reasonable £70 per night for a "crew room" which had a double bed, two twin and bunk beds in an adjoining room. We were provided with a travel cot in addition to this for no further charge. Current rates are vary but start at the £84 rate. This hotel is a 3 star one and is situated a short drive from the main park. The hotel is grouped with other...

Great Fun For The Kids!

Advantages: Swimming pool, complimentary breakfast, fun pirate decor, free bus.
Disadvantages: Very busy at breakfast and on bus.

...My partner and I stayed at the Thomas Cook Explorers hotel for two nights at the beginning of this month. I won a trip to Disneyland Paris in a competition held by Thomas Cook so in this review I regret I am unable to comment on prices, however I intend to give my opinion of all aspects of our stay at the hotel. Upon arriving at Marne la Vallee station on the Eurostar, we found several bus stops outside for the various hotels surrounding Disney. We spent a good 10 minutes trying to locate the right bus stop for the free shuttle bus to the Explorers hotel, but the station staff were very helpful. The bus stop is in fact the first bus stop you come to outside the station on the OTHER SIDE of the road, and it does not have a bus shelter like the others. The bus is number 53 and it's pink so it's easy to spot, and it takes you to all...

Hotel Kyriad- Marne-la-Vallee

Advantages: Pleasent hotel with good connections into Disneyland
Disadvantages: Not much to eat in the hotel restaurant if your a vegetarian.

...The Hotel in Kyriad at marné la valleé is situated about half a mile from the Disneyland park itself in a little cluster of hotels in the countryside. Getting there couldn’t be easier as it is connected to both of Paris’s airports, Charles de Gaulle and Orly, by the VEA Shuttle bus (14 euros per person one way) which stops right outside the hotel on request. Guests should note that to return to the airport you have to book the VEA two days in advance at your hotel, however should you forget to do this then you cant catch it without booking at the bus stop in Disneyland. If you arrive by Eurostar then simply take the bus to the Kyriad from the Disneyland bus stop outside the station which operates every five minutes. The hotel itself is styled as a chateau of the Brie region and is most pleasant to stay in. The rooms are clean...

Review of Kyriad Hotels (France)

Family friendly exploration

Advantages: Family orientated hotel at a good price
Disadvantages: Lively hotel atmosphere if you want a quieter holiday

...The Explorers Hotel is located on the Disneyland Paris site and is one of three hotels constructed about 1km from the Disney owned hotels. It contains 390 rooms accommodating up to 6 persons and there is a free shuttle bus service to and from the Disneyland Theme Park Gates, which are about 3km away. The Explorers has a "pirates" style theme with a large indoor pool that has two slides, a play area built in the shape of a sailing ship, a children's play area that?s ideal for under six year olds with lots of swing ropes, climbing walls and netted softballs to jump into. The Hotel offers 3 restaurants, 2 bars and 3 meeting rooms. There is a separate, full service restaurant called the "Captains Library", the self service ?Plantation? Restaurant and a breakfast room. Bars for the adults include the "Smugglers Tavern" and ?Traders...

Disney's Hotel New York

Advantages: Location, Rooms, Facilities, Staff, Characters
Disadvantages: None!

...Just got back from a 2 night 3 day stay at the New York and it was great! Hotel is in a excellent location, a 2 minute walk from the Disney Village and only 5 minutes from the Disney Parks. Check in was 3pm but the hotel allowed us to check in at 10:30 am. We stayed in the Gramercey Park part of the hotel, rooms were clean and spacious, with excellent facilities, nice view of the Disney castle from our room, there is a safe in the room free of charge. Breakfast is included and is continental style but also serves bacon, sausages and scrambled egg, I think this is something to do with the hotel being American themed? Staff at the hotel are great, very helpful and polite. The hotel also has an ice rink through the winter which you have to pay for but worth it. Mickey has his kids disco in the hotel reception each evening at 8pm. The hotel...

Review of Disney's Hotel New York, Marne-la-Vallee

A little bit of Mexico in Disneyland Paris

Advantages: free 10 min shuttle bus to parks, great theme, nice rooms
Disadvantages: dinner fairly pricy, no hot food with breakfast

...This is the cheapest of the Disney hotels which lies in the Disney area so includes the free 10 minute shuttle bus to and from the parks and the station. The entire hotel is Mexican themed and looks like it's located in the middle of the desert with sand all on the ground and sandy coloured buildings. The rooms are decorated Mexican style with sandy colours and green and red decorations. Check in was easy and quick - they gave us our room keys, park passes and a timetable for the shuttle buses and off we went to find our room. The accommodation is set out like a little village with roads going through them and about 20 rooms in each block rather than just a big hotel block. The room was great - we had 2 double beds next to each other, a good size TV (obviously with the Disney channel 24/7), desk, telephone, open wardrobe, a fairly...
