If you stay in an offical hotel don't choose the Santa Fe, its like a council estate, for a couple of quid extra go for the Cheyenne, best theming of the hotel.

I was looking at the Santa Fe, looks 50s diner style?
it a bit of a dive?

Cheyenne is great! Gets busier at weekends as you get all the french day trippers when I went s/m/t sunday was a nightmare as the ques were soooooo long but monday and tuesday were great so much to see in the two parks.

This.

Cheyenne was awesome, Santa Fe looked very meh.

Don't go for any of the Disney Brand hotels! Go for a Selected Hotel!

And I am not speaking as a Disney hater - I worked for Disney Store for 4 years until last year and am a complete Disney fanatic to boot!

I've been to Disneyland Paris 4 times, I would wholeheartedly recommend the Dream Castle Hotel. It's not owned by Disney, but it is a Disney Selected Hotel, so it's on the same "estate" as the Disney hotels, you still get the shuttle buses to the parks (the only disadvantage is that the Disney hotels have their own buses, whereas the 4 selected hotels share their buses so it can get busy at park opening/closing times), you still get the shopping service, all the amenities of the Disney parks, and much cheaper.

We stayed at the Dream Castle, it's 4*, king sized beds, gorgeous, and it was about £30 a night cheaper than the 2* Disney Santa Fe.

I went there for the Disney experience, being a bit of a Disney nut, but I didn't feel the need to "downgrade" just to get the Disney Brand hotel.

Got a flight, from Leeds Bradford to Paris CDG, Disneyland Paris has a shuttle bus which a year ago was €14 each, one way, but it's a good 40 mins from airport so didn't think it was badly priced.

I have taken the other half a few times.
However have only stayed in Cheyenne and Santa Fe the former being the better by far.
I can also recoment eurostar for getting there as its so much less hassle than an airport these days.

eurostar doesn't run very often?
