The room was a good size and standard amenities were found in the bathroom. The hotel in and of itself seems to be quiet except for 2 beeps that would ring out every so often from the hallway. Night 1: I checked in and realized that a wall unit air conditioner (as opposed to central) was installed in the room.... More

It was a good experience. Rooms were big enough, comfortable beds, bug bathrooms. Only thing they can improve is acknowleding guest when they need help at the guest instead of finishing up a conversation with a co worker. More

The Red Lion Hotel in Anaheim was a great choice for our Disneyland trip for our daughter's 6th birthday. It was a one and a half block walk to Disneyland- about a 15 minute walk. Our 6 year old was able to walk to and from Disneyland with no problem. The hotel gave us an early check in and the... More

My teenage daughter and I spent 8 nights at the Red Lion in May. Couldn't have asked for more for the price I paid! Breakfast was included and it was ample for our needs. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Some noise from loud-flushing toilet next door, but not a big issue. Pool... More

We visited Disneyland for three days for our daughter's 5th birthday. We chose the Red Lion because of a great deal we'd found on the room that included breakfast and parking fees. Prior to our stay, my husband wrote an email to the hotel management, telling them why we were coming and inquiring about the cost to upgrade to one... More

We went to Disneyland on Spring break and decided to use this hotel instead of our normal because of the reviews and it cost less. We are glad we did. When we first checked in we were unsure because the hallways look dirty and dated, but when we opened the door to the room it went beyond expectations. It was... More

BASICS were covered. Room was good and I thought the beds were comfortable. It was a bit noisy, but then you are outside Disneyland! Fun to view the fireworks from your room. Breakfast Buffet was a BASIC hotel breakfast without much variety. It was a bit disappointing only because we had stayed at the Red Lion downtown Seattle and it... More

We travelled to Anaheim as a family in March. The Red Lion hotel was a bit basic - you get what you pay for. We got a good deal on a room although it was in the 'older' building (furtherest away from DL). Unfortunately when we woke up on our first morning, there were 2 large roaches in the room.... More

This hotel was almost everything we could expect for what we paid. I also read the reviews before we went which set my expectations right where they needed to be. We got a package with free parking and free breakfast. I was disappointed that there was not a hot tub, but I didn't end up going swimming anyway. The beds... More
