Great place to stay!
Angelina, 1-night trip

Better than the Disney hotels IMO
This really is the perfect place for large families. My family of 5 stayed here comfortably and there was even room for more! It’s so close to Disneyland, lots of quick bites to eat within walking distance, and the onsite market has everything you need. The waterpark is awesome and even though it was freezing outside, my kids had a blast playing in it every night.

THE ONLY PLACE TO STAY IN ANAHEIM
This is now the only place we will stay when we are in this area. Ryan at Reception was so kind and helpful. Everything that you can think of at the hotel was well above our expectations. It is a 10-minute walk to Disney Land and a whole street of restaurants.
Danny, 3-night trip

Perfect Disney Family Hotel
We are a Disneyland family and have stayed in Anaheim many times, at many different hotels and HoJo ended up being one of our favorites! This hotel came highly recommended from friends and it definitely lived up to expectations. The staff were truly the best- every person we encountered was friendly and helpful. The rooms were well sized and had everything we needed for our three day trip- not to mention the beds were insanely comfortable! The proximity to the parks was 10/10. The pool was closed during our stay but we were able to enjoy the splash pad and hot tub which were so much fun!!!! I can’t wait to go back!

Disney Fave
We have enjoyed staying at this HOJO. The water feature and the grounds have been a family favorite. This particular set of rooms were very musky and the opening to the balcony was through the closet, a first for us. Otherwise enjoyed our stay. Very conveniently located to Disney and freeway access.
