The Disneyland® Resort Good Neighbor Hotel Checklist

Before you hit “book now,” run your Anaheim hotel choice through this practical checklist:
- Free, reliable shuttle to the park entrance
- Ability to pre-purchase your Disneyland® Resort tickets
- Family-sized hotel rooms and quiet, relaxing spaces
- Luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures
- On-site dining with kid-friendly options
- Themed decor or amenities that keep the magic alive
- Consistently high guest reviews
If your hotel doesn’t check every box, you may be settling for less than your dream vacation.
Why Official Matters: Disney Approval vs. Just Being Nearby 
It’s tempting to choose just any hotel near Disneyland® Resort, but not all proximity is created equal. Good Neighbor Hotels earn their title through a Disney-approved vetting process. That means:
- Regular inspections ensure your stay meets Disney quality benchmarks
- Trained staff can help with park navigation, tickets, and insider tips
- Direct ticket access lets you avoid long lines at the gates
- Peace of mind comes from knowing the hotel upholds the standards of the Disney name
In contrast, unaffiliated nearby hotels may look close to the park, but will be missing some important perks! Without the oversight and support that comes from the Good Neighbor Hotel program, you’re missing out!
