Santa Fe is the cheapest hotel. Sequoia lodge is usually a fair bit more. Your quotes are the other way round. Wondering why.

There's lots of info on https://www.dlpguide.com if you want to research your trip.

Balletshoes - a quick technical question if I may. Have booked, as you advised, for just me and DD at the Santa Fe, just in case something comes up and DH can't make it. I intend, if he can, to add him onto the room on arrival (can I do that at the station?) and then buy an annual pass for myself, but obviously the park tickets from Disney will have my name on them. I don't recall needing to show them to anybody last time around but just wanted to check really.

you can only add your OH to the room at check-in, at your hotel reception. The park tickets included in the hotel package you've booked do have your family surname on them, but anyone (including your OH) can use them, that won't be queried .

But we can do station check in and bag drop off, her the tickets, go to the park and get the annual pass and just sort out adding him when we get to the hotel that night? Fab.

Hi all. I've gone back as far as I can manage in this thread so apologies if i'm doing something wrong.


Basically my hubby is getting a bonus in march so we're looking to take the kids to euro Disney but I have no idea what a good price is or how to get a good deal. going in April holidays for 4 nights. the Disney website wants 1200 minimum for hotel & park tickets, magic moments (firsts choice) wants 1368 for hotel & tunnel travel. the cheapest I have found is through a chat advisor on dlparisdirect.co.uk for 977 for hotel, tickets and tunnel travel, which is cheaper but not sure if they're trustworthy as not through Disney.


does anyone have an idea of a good price for 2 adults & 2 kids age 6 & 4, or have any dealings with this website? thanks

what are your exact dates, and how flexible can you be?

yes you can do that no problem, just remember to take your passport with you to the parks to get your AP sorted.

Hi balletshoes. These are for 12th april, but we can be flexible between 28th March to 12th April. Are these prices about right would you think?

I've rang Great days which is the company that Disney gave me the number for. They don't offer the kids under 7 or 2 nights free deals but offer a group discount.
The quote was £1000 more between us! So looks like phoning Disney back and all booking separately and hoping we are close to each other if we all book premium plus lodges. Is the coyote trail the closest to the main building with premium + lodges?

Premium+ Cabins are closest to the shop, pool, restaurant area (can't recall the trail names, been a while since we stayed there) but IIRC there are more trails with Premium+ cabins too - the only other extras are robes, slippers, hairdryer, Nespresso machine and wired internet (don't know if wifi is available there now though), compared to the Premium cabins, i.e. Interior, size etc of the cabins are the same if called 'premium'. There were some old style cabins left when we were last there, but they were very tired and in need of replacement.

Whenever I booked online there was an option to be in a cabin near someone else if required, if DCR were able to accommodate this at the time (think you just needed their surname & booking number, but it was well into the booking process) so possibly the same applies for a phone booking? Ask them if this is still the case.

Edit: just had a look at DLP website, they do still offer the possibility of adjoining cabins under special requests.

DCR mention name changes to cabins after 1st April, looks like Premium+ are closest to DCR village area (as is now), then Pioneer, followed by Trapper.

on the official DLP website I'm seeing prices for the Santa Fe for your party (on the 2 nights free offer) of £712, arriving on 1st April, and £746 arriving on 12th April. This included hotel, park tickets, and breakfast, but not travel (I always do that separately, so in your case I'd book Eurotunnel direct through Eurotunnel themselves ).

The Sequoia Lodge, arriving on 12th April, is coming in at £874, for hotel, park tickets and breakfast.

Ok, is that usually the best way to book or are there better offers/websites to go through do you think? Its a very high price compared to other bookings I've seen on this thread
