Outrageous cost aside, Disney Hotels do not offer any better amenities compared to the Hyatt. We had a choice between the two hotels & stayed at Disneyland Hotel only because the kids wanted the convenience, proximity and ability to ride the Monorail (which as of this writing, will be closed for the next 4 mos.)into the park. The rooms are quainty decorated with Disney motif and Mickey's face embellished on the boxes of soap, shampoo/lotion bottles. Housekeeping always made sure we had enough glasses, towels and toiletries (which are truthfully, better at the Hyatt). The one day we wanted to spend some time at the Neverland Pool, it was full of children. We moved to the other pool, more of the same. It is nice to be able to walk to Downtown Disney where we ate most of our meals, thus never leaving the Disney complex once we checked in. For future return visits, we plan to stay at the Hyatt.
Pros: Walking to Disneyland, Downtown Disney, Monorail
Cons: Overpriced, older hotel
