    Hi I'm planning to go to Disneyland Paris for one day - 12th August. There will be 2 adults and 3 children (ages 7, 7, and 8). Can anyone advise where I might look for the best deal please? I'm finding it all a bit overwhelming and am not sure if what I'm looking at represents good value. Thanks in advance!

    so its just one day tickets you need, no travel, hotel etc? If its just tickets, you can either buy them at the gate when you arrive (check DLRPMagic for their ticket information) or you can check the likes of traverepublic, attractiontix, ticketnet.fr and buy in advance - that should save you some money compared with the gate price.

    if you're looking at feb half term and you still want 3 days/4 nights, I'd wait until after the current offer ends at the end of September - as then you'll be able to make a good comparison between the onsite package offers and offsite with park tickets/APs.

    Thanks a lot ballets shoes . Will wait till then . Tc

    Hi,

    We are planning to go to Disneyland Paris from 31 July - 2 August and I was thinking of booking one of their hotels for the trip with which you get the magic hours. We thought it best to drive down on the 30th and then sleep somewhere near Disneyland and then check in on the 31st July. Does anybody know if you would be able to use the magic hours already on the 31 July or would they only be applicable from the next day?

    Your help is greatly appreciated.

    you can check in before EMH on 31st at your onsite hotel, and use EMH that day :).

    The Cheyenne has a set of bunk beds and one double as standard in each bedroom, the Santa Fe has 2 double beds as standard. So just pick which one suits you best - they are across the stream from each other, same distance from the parks, same facilities etc.

    I know the hotel site for Newport Bay says the pool is closed til October 2014, but I've just read a recent trip advisor review saying the pool was good..?!
    Anyone know if it's reopened earlier than anticipated?

    the last I heard the refurb is delayed, well after its original scheduled date. Its possible they have finished the pool refurb but that just means the rest of it still needs to be done - the whole hotel, including kitchens, restaurants, all public areas, as well as all the rooms, are being refurbed, and it won't be completely finished until next year.

    you could always contact the poster on Tripadvisor and ask them when they were staying in the hotel, and used the pool?

    Hi We are thinking of taking our 3 and 1 year old in nov/dec time. I like to go when the Christmas decs are up :) Hoping it will be not toooo busy!

    We will probably take the Eurostar and would llike to go for 3/4 nights. Look at the santa fe which we like the look of, package is 945 for the first week of november... was hoping we could do it cheaper seperate. Weve looked at expedia but cannot find availablity for Santa Fe?

    What kind of prices should we be paying for this time of year? Thanks so much!
    Whoever said money can't buy happiness simply didn't know where to go shopping !!
