Cortona Inn and Suites Anaheim Resort

The staff were great, the front desk very helpful although a couple were not too knowledgeable about local transit. Joy was terrific though. Breakfast was appreciated before a long day at the parks. It is fairly basic, always sausage and egg patties (scrambled), cereal, toast, apples and oranges, sometimes biscuits and gravy, sometimes pancakes, sometimes yogurt, but included and good enough to get your day started. Good coffee and water for you to fill up your bottles with. Property is close enough for a longer walk to Disney for adults (20-25 minutes) but much easier and closer to walk to the corner (one hotel away) cross the street and walk into the Disney Toy Story parking lot to catch the shuttle bus. Plus if before noon there is a security check there before you get on it so you just walk past the one at Disney. Buses take you there and back for free (ONE THING DISNEY DOESN'T CHARGE FOR!!!!) and they run all day long up until one hour after the last park closure. There is a bus stop right out front of the hotel. Target is about 3 blocks down the street in the other direction if you want to buy snacks, pop, liquor, etc., also with a bus stop out front so you don't have to walk back unless you want to. Also Outback Steak House, The Crab Shack and a few other restaurants. There is a blow dryer, microwave, fridge and coffee maker in the room and we found the beds very comfortable. The hotel hot tub was down while we were there but they had arranged for guests to use the one next door, which is off the parking lot literally 20 feet across from theirs with an exterior gate and quite private. We used it a lot. The owners of the gift store are very nice people with much cheaper prices than in the parks. Buy your ears there and save $20+.

The night before check in, the resort messaged me to welcome and asked if I had any special request to feel free to message them back. I did just that. We were staying to celebrate my son’s birthday, I asked if they could put balloons in the room. I wasn’t expecting it considering it was literally the night before check in. However when we arrived it was to my surprise they had Balloons for him as well as a little gift. He was more than excited and it made him feel special 😊 he also said it was magical because he had no idea how the resort even knew it was his birthday 😂.. thank you Cortona Inn for this sweet gesture.

Super clean, the guy at reception who checked us in at night was very friendly. Everything was smooth sailing. The room was very big and very clean. Breakfast was pretty standard (lots of brown coloured foods lol - pancakes, eggs, bread, bagels, cereal etc). Perfect for carb loading before Disneyland! 20 ish minute walk to Disneyland and lots of restaurants, coffee and a CVS nearby.

Hotel is in great location. 15 min walk from disneyland was a bonus. Breakfast was good. Room was ok. Beds were comfortable. Kids enjoyed the breakfast, pool and the hot tub.

Room is a good size, a great location for Disneyland and nearby shops and restaurants. Free coffee,/water and apples in the lobby, which is great on the way in or out. Pool is small but nice and hot tub is a nice extra.
