We were very impressed with the service, cleanliness and the breakfasts we received at this hotel. I also got up in the mornings and used the exercise room which was very nice. Just a nice walk to Disneyland and back no problem with our 3 yr. old grandson in a stroller.

On arrival to Desert Palms we were made to feel very welcome and kindly upgraded to a Kuha Kids Suite at no extra cost. It was great to have an 8-10 minute walk to both Disney parks which meant we could get there for opening times. The room was great, the pool a godsend for the kids after a day... More

My husband, four growing children and I stayed here for a week to do the Disneyland thing. Desert palms is very comfortable for a family our size. We had two rooms with two queen beds each and most importantly two showers/toilets. This accommodation is located 10 minutes easy walk to Disneyland. We used to walk home from Disneyland to enjoy...

We recently undertook our fourth visit to the Desert Palms Hotel and Suites. We are a family of two adults and two children (5 and 8 years) and find the Desert Palms a nice 10-12 minute walk from Disneyland Resort (although people with older children or teenages could cover the distance quicker). We stayed in a Borrego Suite which provided... More

We stayed in a Sahara Suite, which has a fully equipped kitchen. The first night we stayed in a room that faced onto the road. It was very noisy, so we asked to be moved the next morning. Staff were very accommodating and our new room faced inside into the pool area. No noise except the usual of people going... More

We all enjoyed our stay, the front desk staff was very friendly. It is a close walk to Disney & the convention center. We will stay again next year, the kids loved the pool area & it was great to have a restaurant/bar area in the hotel though I think it should stay open later in the evening. The breakfast... More

We really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is very clean and the staff couldn't be more helpful. Only thing that may need improvement is the complimentary breakfast. Not the healthiest cereals and the oatmeal was much too runny. Great location for walking to the Park even with small kids. Thanks for everything.

Incredibly noisy. I cannot emphasize this enough! Got up in the night thinking my kids were crying but it was not my child. The maids woke us up to clean room very early too. The breakfast is terrible! I could barely choke down the food. Bread for toast was not edible. My kids even thought the fruit loop cereal tasted... More

We stayed for 6 nights during our Disney trip. We were given a beautiful suite with a great view of DCA. Front desk staff was very friendly. Breakfast was always crowded, but they don't have much controll over that. Pretty close walk to Disney. We could have stayed closer, but we would have had to comprise quality.

When we arrived the staff were very friendly and obliging. Our room was not ready, but we could leave our luggage there. We had a room with two queen beds and there was a separate area with a tv, sofa, chair and coffee table. You could pull a heavy curtain across the area to separate it from the bedroom. Breakfast...
