In short: where to stay at Disneyland Paris
- What it costs: Disney hotels are sold as a package that includes tickets to both parks, and the price is quoted per person per night: from about 195 euros at the Santa Fe to more than 1,000 euros at the Disneyland Hotel (checked in September 2026).
- The main advantage: Disney hotel guests get into the parks before the official opening time, and parking is free. On busy days, that’s worth two hours of lines.
- The cheapest official hotel: Hotel Santa Fe, two stars, about a 20-minute walk from the gate or a free shuttle.
- The closest: Disneyland Hotel, five stars, right above the entrance to the original park.
- A cheaper alternative: partner hotels with a free shuttle, or a hotel in Paris on the RER A line, about 40 minutes each way.
- The Val d’Europe area: hotels and apartments near the Val d’Europe mall and the RER station, the best-value option for families who want a kitchen.
Let’s be honest: choosing a hotel at Disneyland Paris is just as tricky as choosing the first ride you’ll go on in the park. Do you pay more and get the “magic” straight into your veins (plus the early entry hours), or do you save and keep the budget for macarons and shopping?
Don’t worry, I’m here to sort out the chaos for you. After countless visits, nights in beds both softer and harder, and hours of walking, I’ve put together the ultimate guide: from the “official” hotels that will make you feel like royalty to the hidden gems only the locals (and I) know about.
🏆 The Top Three: My Most Recommended Hotels
How Much Does a Disney Hotel Cost? 2026 Price Comparison
The official Disney hotels are sold as a package that includes your stay and tickets to both parks, so the price is quoted per person per night, not per room. It ranges from about 195 euros per person at the Santa Fe in the quiet season to more than 1,000 euros at the Disneyland Hotel in peak season.
| Hotel | Stars | Distance to the park gate | Per person per night, tickets included |
|---|---|---|---|
| Disneyland Hotel | 5 | About a 5-minute walk, right above the entrance | From about 465 to about 1,095 euros |
| Hotel New York, The Art of Marvel | 4 | About a 10-minute walk | From about 310 to about 830 euros |
| Newport Bay Club | 4 | About a 15-minute walk | From about 235 to about 540 euros |
| Sequoia Lodge | 3 | About a 15-minute walk | From about 230 to about 595 euros |
| Hotel Cheyenne | 3 | About a 20-minute walk or a free shuttle | From about 210 to about 455 euros |
| Hotel Santa Fe | 2 | About a 20-minute walk or a free shuttle | From about 195 to about 435 euros |
Last checked: September 2, 2026. Disney uses dynamic pricing, and the prices in the table are starting points by season. If you’d rather sleep in Paris and take the train, you’ll find my recommendations in where to stay in Paris, and if you haven’t bought tickets yet, you’ll find everything in my guide to Disneyland Paris tickets.
The Official Disney Hotels (Inside the Resort)
The big advantage? You’re inside the bubble. You walk to the park (or take a very short shuttle) and get Extra Magic Time: entry to the park an hour before everyone else.
-

Disneyland Hotel
The jewel in the crown. The pink hotel everyone dreams about.
- Great location (0 minutes’ walk)
- VIP service and stunning design
- The price… you’ll need a mortgage
-

Art of Marvel
New York meets Spider-Man. Modern, clean and super cool.
- Fresh, carefully designed interiors
- A 10-minute walk through the Village
- Fairly expensive for 4 stars
-

Newport Bay Club
A New England seaside atmosphere on the lake. A huge, impressive hotel.
- Wonderful indoor and outdoor pools

-

Sequoia Lodge
A hunting lodge in the forest (with Bambi). Warm, cozy and good value.
- Excellent value for money

-

Hotel Cheyenne
Woody and Jessie are waiting for you in a Wild West town. A real experience for kids.
- Detailed “Toy Story” theming

Hotel Santa Fe
The cheapest option at the resort. “Cars” theming.

If you’re coming in summer and don’t handle the heat well, skip the Santa Fe (no air conditioning). In winter, on the other hand, the roaring fireplace at the Sequoia Lodge is the most romantic spot in France.

Paris Hotels Near RER Stations with Trains to Disneyland Paris
