The Paradise Pier is the least expensive and has the largest rooms. It also has no tram service to the parks, so you have to walk all the way into DL. You can walk through the Grand for entrance to DCA, The Grand is the most expensive and also has the smallest rooms, and is closest to the parks. The Disneyland Hotel is my favorite and after the recent renovation the rooms are great. We've stayed at the original towers for over 30 years including the old garden villas which were demolished when DTD and DCA were being built. Hope this helps. - splashphotoCM  880.9 #101 11:11AM

I've not stayed in any DLR hotel... Yet. I think I would probably stay at the DL hotel first based on what MWers have said. (And just a hint, it's spelled 'which') - MyPark  944.4 #91 10:15AM

Paradise Pier is the least expensive hotel of the three, followed by the Disneyland Hotel, and lastly the Grand Californian is the most expensive. I found Paradise Pier very comfortable and clean and it provides easy walkable entrance into the parks. The other two are more luxurious. Hope this helps! :) - glassslipperCM  3.4 #17909 10:20AM

Paradise Pier is my FAVORITE!!! We have stayed there and the Grand. There is nothing like the incredible view from the 14th floor w a park view room!! We could see WOC from our window. At night we could lie in bed and watch the lights go around on the Fun wheel. I think a lot of times PP is dismissed as "the cheap one" but I will say that it's my FAVORITE! The view is AWESOME! (From an upper level theme park room) also, the lobby of the Grand is incredible but the rooms, in my opinion, aren't really any nicer than PP. - brittandkell  288.4 #677 10:44AM

The Grand, but only if its a view room. - Tom  3875.3 #7 2:10PM

Just stayed at the Grand. What I loved most is the convenience of proximity to the parks. We've stayed at the DL hotel and these rooms were more spacious and the kids seemed to like these rooms better. Haven't tried the Pier but may try that next. - TamiLovesDisney  125.3 #2644 10:55AM

I've only ever stayed at the Disneyland Hotel and it was magical. We stayed in the Frontierland tower and had a view of the hotel grounds/pool. The pool is great btw, we loved the monorail water slides! Plus Goofys Kitchen is there and the walk to the monorail is so close and convenient. - BettyPoop  232.0 #1214 11:16AM
