Getting to the parks and the quick walk
The hotel’s main entrance faces South Harbor Boulevard; the Disneyland Resort main entrance and Downtown Disney District are roughly a five-minute walk. Because the hotel is so close, most guests walk rather than drive or take shuttles.
If you’re heading to both parks in a day, plan your arrival and use the same pedestrian route back to the hotel for lunch or a swim break — no car required for typical park-focused itineraries.
- Allow 5–10 minutes to walk from your room to park security lines depending on crowd levels
- Bring your park tickets and ID; front desk offers tours and ticket assistance
