Top Emerald Bay Hotel Reviews

Desert Palms Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great day had a blast with my family and celebrating my grandma who had passed two months ago add Disneyland in her Onner and this hotel was spectacular. Service overall experience not to mention how clean the roots were would highly recommend this hotel"

The Viv Hotel, Anaheim, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk is very helpful even when there was a long line waiting to be attended (maybe it should add a new hire?). Breakfast is a top notch quality with reasonable varieties served by very well trained staff. The pools are in good conditions. Will stay there again next time."

Motel 6 Anaheim Maingate

8/10 Good

"This was a great, inexpensive place to stay for our Disneyland trip. The room was adequate, did not reek of disinfectant (a big problem at comparable hotels), and was clean. Be aware that it is very bare bones - no microwave, no kleenex/tissue, shelves instead of drawers, and no Do Not Disturb sign. The lounge pads at the pool desperately need updating, and the guy that checked us in was unfriendly. However, the bed and pillows were very comfortable, room was clean, water pressure was adequate, and just a 15-minute, flat walk to the parks (in a wheelchair, flat counts). We will definitely stay here again."
