✨Update🌟Thank you all so very much! This information was priceless. I wrote out all the suggestions and put check marks next to each one suggested more than once. The winner with the best price/location/free breakfast/cheap parking/and availability was the best western park place!! Staying four nights in October 🌟Hopefully this info is helpful to others!🌟🌟The HOJO is already full for our trip in October. Does anyone have any reviews of the other hotels on South Harbor? Also has anyone rented a car from John Wayne or from enterprise at hotel? We have a wedding to go to in Pasadena on one of the nights and do not want to rent for whole time if possible. Thanks MW. I trust you all more than tripadvisor or yelp!
I have had great experiences at Tropicana Inn and Best Western Park Place. It's been several years since I've stayed at either, but I don't remember anything negative standing out about either. We are staying at the Del Sol Inn in a about a week. - MightyWhitey

MW please post a review. My neice is thinking about staying there - LaPearleNoir 569.3 #194 8:52PM
I agree on the Best Western Park Place Inn. Stayed there last August and got a very clean room with a refrigerator. Right across the street from the park. - Alicewhoareyou 536.0 #209 8:53PM
No problem LPN. - MightyWhitey 648.3 #165 9:16PM
We have had good experiences at Tropicana as well! - lynniesue42 229.4 #1248 9:59PM
We always stay at the Best Western Park Place Inn. Clean rooms, fridge, free breakfast and we love that we can walk to and from the park, no shuttles. - adisneyfamily 471.2 #254 10:26PM
I second both the tropicana and the Park Place. The Park place is our favorite non Disney place to stay. - mickeyboo 65.3 #3474 6:52AM
Thumbs up for BW park place. Stayed 5 or 6 times over the years and never had a complaint:) - supertracy 435.6 #284 10:23AM
We stayed at the Anabella hotel for our honeymoon and it was actually really nice. I would recommend it and would stay there again. - DisneyPrincessFreak

The Ayres in in Orange - only a couple of miles from the park. Low rates, Free parking, free wifi & a free full breakfast every morning! I don't stay anywhere else! - Sfarrell

There is an Enterprise on the corner of Katella and Clementine. It's about 2-3 blocks from Disneyland. - Drews~Missus

I have rented from enterprise and hertz in jw airport had a very pleasant experience. Also I have stayed at hotel menage, camelot hotel (the one that looks like a giant cottage), and tropicana and had very nice experiences. I hope you have fun - cmdlgurl

I like the Ramada Plaza at Harbor and Katella. I always stay there whenever i go to Dland. They hve an ample amount of lights, nice beds and a lot of power plugs to charge your electric devices. Also they have american bfast for free :) - otilegna

I work for starwood hotels. And i can get u a discount at the sheraton. - CM_Wallie05
28.6 #4435 11:44AM
Where is the Sheraton? I'm going in a couple weeks. I was going to stay at the Hojo, but its pricey. - Sharkgrrl19 202.9 #1584 9:10PM
There is one right on the corner of Ball Rd. and Disneyland Dr. Intersection where you turn into Mickey and Friends parking structure. - Alicewhoareyou 536.0 #209 9:13PM
Is the Sheraton pricey? We've never stayed there before. - Diznimom 211.8 #1452 10:02PM
I like the Sheraton Park. We got a good rate on Priceline. - PrincessKristin 774.5 #124 10:29PM
We are staying at tr best western park vue right in front of the enterance. We love it! It was cheaper then the other hotels and is very nice inside. - Cinderella-princess

Thank you all so much!!! I'm glad to know there are some good options. We are still in the planning stages. Thank you so much Cm_Wallie05 for your generous offer. Since we only get to go a few days each year we want to stay somewhere right outside the entrance to save our feet after 16 hour days. I love starwood hotels though they are great! - mouselaw1076

We stayed at peacock suites which is two blocks away and we loved it .the place was excellant,very roomy and excellant prices plus they a disney good nieghbor hotel. - Tinky76 309.6 #562 10:40PM
Candy Cane Inn is nice and for a few extra $ we get the premium room that is a little larger and they bring breakfast to your room (they also provide a free dvd rental if you have kids). Also shuttles run fairly often even though they are within a short walking distance. The Hilton Doubletree is a little farther but great if you have more people since they have suites available. - sstarlight

We are going in Oct too and thought of staying at the Hojo. Now I have to look someplace else. I've never stayed at the Sheraton before. Maybe I need to look into it as well as the Ramada. We usually stay at the Candy Cane Inn but we thought of trying someplace else. - Diznimom
211.8 #1452 9:57PM
I booked my HoJo stay for October like in march? And 1 week after booking they were full for the room type we booked! Crazy! That's a sign of an amazing hotel right there! :) - lynniesue42

We always stay at the Candy Cane Inn. We have always had a great experience there. - ima-pirate

We stayed at Fairfield and Dessert Inn before, and we enjoyed. Fairfield 's room get Disney themed pictures, my kids loved it. We stayed in a suite at Dessert Inn, it was super close to DL& free simply breakfast every morning. We had good time at both, but if we go again, I think we'll pick Dessert Inn cause nothing can beat it's closest distant with extremely tired foot after long hours of DL fun. - RapunzalK

Yikes, when were you going in October??? - lifeguardette
114.6 #2812 1:46AM
Yea, I was wondering that, too....it made me nervous for our October trip. I was secretly hoping that this trip wasn't like our Spring Break trip. That maybe it would be a LITTLE less crowded. Just a tad... :) - PeachKay 310.6 #555 10:15AM
We stayed at the Fairfield Inn in June ...it was nice. Stayed at Hilton in March....loved it but no shuttles or breakfast. I was able to book a room at the Hilton with a view of DL and a lanai for less than what HoJo quoted for MW and rate in August. Good luck in your search! - fvbmermaid

getawaytoday.com still shows HOJO having rooms first week of October -- not sure when you were planning on going though. - rdaann
273.5 #794 7:20AM
If we can't stay on property we stay at the Fairfield :-). We really like it but the pool can get pretty crowded, it's not that big. - PrincessDuckie

We love The Anabella, its right behind DCA so you can still walk. Best Western Raffles Inn is more of a bargain and has LARGE suites and a good free breakfast. Also have stayed a little further down Harbor in Garden Grove at Crowne Plaza and Emabassy Suites, both have free Disney shuttles and Embassy Suites has an AWESOME hot breakfast. - DisneyDad909
110.8 #2886 8:30AM
Have stayed at the Fairfield across the street from the HOJO and loved it. If you know a Marriot employee and can use a discout sometimes their rooms are $39. Good luck! - Dzny4Ever
172.6 #1968 8:35AM
Agree we love the fairfield too. - chipanddalefan 524.6 #219 10:20AM
We always stay at the Sheraton. Free shuttle service to and from parks. Delicious food! And late check out if available 2pm! - DeaG
9.1 #7073 8:44AM
We stay at either the Hilton with Disney view. My new favorite is the Homewood Suites. Free hot breakfast everyday then Mon -Thursday free dinner it is nothing fancy but it helps bring down my total cost. Plus it has a kitchen with 2 burner stove and full sized fridge, bbq's outside (first come first serve) by the pool. Large 2 room suites. - MeridasHair
319.5 #520 10:46AM
We stay there too. I LOVE that the dinner is included. That leaves us to buy more fun snacks and whatnot! - matildamouse 196.4 #1675 1:49PM
