“This place is absolutely amazing..I normally stay here when visiting Disneyland in which the the rooms are amazing and so is the continental breakfast in the morning. However, this time I had to to utilize the Oasis banquet room for a celebration of life. The coordinator Julie and the staff went above and beyond in helping me set up make sure everything was perfect and flawless. I would 10 out of 10 recommended! They make you feel at home and treat you like family especially during a difficult time.”

“Nice suites for large families and parking fits our 12 seater van. Great proximity to Disney, clean rooms, comfy beds, suites have nice layouts, love having double sinks outside of the shower/toilet area. Great breakfast with gluten free options as well. Only hotel we will stay at for Disney!”

“Staying here for a Disney trip! It is right down the street from all of the parks which was key. It was not quite walking distance for littlest boy but taking a car down the road a minute or two made it so nice. The room was nice with a bunk bed for the kids and the included breakfast added value for sure. We will stay here on our next visit for sure! It has a pool and hot tub if you need to take a break from the park as well.”

“Our stay was excellent! We stayed during spring break time and this hotel definitely made our vacation a happier one. Upon check in we were upgraded to a suite with a kitchen and extra space, which was awesome. Everything was clean. Our towels were refilled and the trash was taken out daily. The complimentary breakfast had a great variety and changed slightly daily, which was nice. The make your own waffles were the best. The hotel was nice and close to the Disney parks and restaurants. The only con we had was parking was difficult at times since they were sold out for spring break. Other than that, it was a perfect stay. We will definitely be back for our next vacation. Thank you!”

“The Desert Palms and Suites was the center of our amazing vacation to Disneyland and California Adventure. The location is excellent! A 10 minute, very nice walk to the parks. Our room, a 1 bedroom suite, was perfect for 5 of us. Swimming pool is warm enough to swim in February. The breakfast was wonderful, every morning. A plethora of different hot choices daily. Housekeeping…..wow! We were told daily towel replenishing and garbage out daily. They made the beds and cleaned up so nice! Like daily housekeeping you would get pre Covid! The entire staff was polite, kind and respectful. I highly recommend this hotel for you Disneyland Adventures!”
