The Disneyland hotel is a great resort to visit. It is a little on the expensive side compared to other hotels in the area. Unlike the resorts at Walt Disney World I do not think that staying at this hotel gives you any extra privileges that are worth the high markup. I have stayed at the hotel several times though and I think that the service is on par with all other Disney resorts. If you have been to Walt Disney World do not expect this to be anything like what you experienced there. For starters this hotel was not build by Disney. Disney just bought it a few years ago(even though it held the Disney name before that). Also it is not isolated like many of the resorts in Florida are. Overall I would say that if you have money to burn its a great place to stay, but if your on a tight budget I would rather use the extra money to stay another day.

The Disneyland Hotel now consists of three large towers. All the 2 and 3 story buildings that used to make up the hotel are all gone. Also gone are all the old shops, the pool, and the marina has become the new pool. There is no longer tram service directly from the hotel, you have to walk to the tram stop behind the Paradise Pier Hotel (its going to be quicker and more scenic to just walk through Downtown Disney to get to the parks. Or you can still take the monorail directly to Tomorrowland.

(Starting on the left is the Bonita, next to it is the Sierra, and hidden in the back is the Marina)

The towers form a straight edged "C". With the opening of the "C" facing East. (All directions are approximate, but it will give you an idea what the directions are.). In 2007 all three towers were renamed. The original names are in parenthesis below.

Magic (Marina) Tower: This is where the main lobby is located. As well as a couple gift shops. It also has direct access to the convention center from inside. If you have a view looking North you will be looking across the Downtown Disney parking lot toward the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure. South you would be looking at the Bonita Tower (across the pool area).

Dreams (Sierra) Tower: This is the closest tower to the monorail station. If you have a view looking East you will be looking at Downtown Disney, and beyond that the two themeparks. If your view is looking West you will see the courtyard between the three towers and look off into Anaheim.

Wonder (Bonita) Tower: This tower is closest to the Paradise Pier Hotel. If you look South out of this tower you will have a view overlooking the Simba parking lot, and off to your left will be the Paradise Pier Hotel. Looking North you will be looking towards the Marina Tower overlooking the waterfall area then the pool.
