Best Disneyland Hotels for Large Families

Staybridge Inn & Suites: We are so excited that there are now two Staybridge Suites right by Disneyland! The Staybridge Suites Anaheim at the Park is one of the newest hotels near Disneyland and offers both studio and one bedroom suites that sleep up to six. The Staybridge Suites by Holiday Inn has studios, plus one and two bedroom suites available. The two bedroom suite sleeps up to eight, which is perfect if you have a large family or even two small families who want to stay together. Each of these hotels offer a full kitchen in each room, which makes cooking for the whole family a breeze. Both Staybridge Suites also serve a full complimentary breakfast each morning and host managers' receptions Tuesday - Thursday nights.

Hyatt House and Hyatt Place: Hyatt is another brand that we love and there just happen to be two new Hyatt hotels near Disneyland. The Hyatt House at the Anaheim Resort Convention Center is more of a condo style property with rooms that have a full kitchen. The Hyatt Place at Anaheim Resort is more of a studio option, but also has rooms with bunk beds. Both hotels serve a full breakfast each morning. Some rooms sleep up to six, but they all are spacious and comfortable for larger families, even if you have to get two rooms. Either is a great choice when looking for the best Disneyland hotels for large families!

Residence Inn: There are three Residence Inn hotels all within a short distance to the Happiest Place on Earth: the Residence Inn at Anaheim Resort Convention Center, Anaheim Residence Inn Maingate and Residence Inn Anaheim Resort Area. What makes all three of the Residence Inns some of the best Disneyland hotels for large families is their variety of rooms perfectly designed to accommodate families. Some of the rooms have bunk beds, some are condominium styled and some sleep up to eight. All of the rooms feature full kitchens and living rooms. All of the hotels serve a hot breakfast daily, host a manager's reception on certain weeknights and have fantastic group spaces. Swimming pools, ball courts, playgrounds, arcades and kids theaters can be found at one or more of the Residence Inns near Disneyland.

Tropicana Inn and Camelot Inn: There are very few suites that are right across the street from Disneyland. But it's not just the location of these sister properties make them some of the best Disneyland hotels for large families. Both the Tropicana Inn & Suites and the Camelot Inn & Suites have a handful of family suites that sleep seven to eight guests. If you have a really large family or group traveling together, either of these hotels would be a great choice. Book a combination of standard rooms and suites for the perfect situation for your family to be just steps away from Disneyland's main gate.

Stanford Inn & Suites: Another excellent choice for families looking for a great value is the Stanford Inn & Suites.

Courtyard Anaheim Theme Park Entrance: One of my personal favorite hotels for families is the new Courtyard across the street from Disneyland. All of their rooms come with a set of bunk beds, easily and comfortably sleeping six people. Another bonus of the large rooms is that they have two showers, doubling the bathroom space. There's also a water park, which may end up being the highlight of your kids' vacation.
