I love both hotels...the only draw back to the Pier is walking arcoss the street..it scares the heck out of me...so I would say DH..plus your not in your room that much anyway. - dawna  286.9 #688 10:31AM

For me... Paradise Pier everytime, I love the theme park view and if you get the north end, you get a great view of the fireworks also - FreddyC626  30.7 #4344 10:30AM

I personally prefer the DL hotel because it is so much easier to get to the parks. There used to be a tram but I don't think there is so you have to hoof it back and forth. Check with the PP for sure. The DL hotel grounds are currently under going some renovation so you can't walk between the towers only around them the middle where the pool area is the construction area. So that maybe a concern to you. Both hotels rooms are excellent and the DL hotel has more options for dining and is closer to DTD. Hope that helps. - splashphotoCM  880.9 #101 10:31AM

It is fun to look out the window and see what's going on in DCA at all hours. PP rooms are also a bit bigger. The renovated rooms are nice at DL hotel, plus you feel just a wee bit closer to DTD. If it's a view you want then PP. Otherwise DL hotel with standard view. - debzdo  19.1 #5158 10:35AM

Thanks for everyone's feedback. I have stayed at both hotels before. But the construction is hindering me. With the paradise pier, instead of walking across the street, you can exit through the back of the hotel and walk in through DTD and take the monorail in. If we are going to DCA we go through the Grand. I think I am leaning towards PP just to be safe on noise interruptions. - DisneyBride°O°  366.5 #381 10:39AM
