Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Orange County (Disneyland-Anaheim) Red Lion

[Soundsfunmom]

Hi,

I'm looking to i.d. these two hotels I'm considering through Hotwire.

The dates are May 4th-May 7th. One room, 2 adults 2 children.

There is a 3 star in Anaheim/Disney North for 57.00 a night. It charges a resort fee and amenities include restaurant, business center. laundry, smoke free rooms, pool, fitness center, and internet.

I'm also considering a 3.5 star hotel at 82.00 a night in Anaheim/Disney South with 90% positive reviews. It is smoke free, has a pool, fitness center, internet, and I don't see a resort fee.

Any input is welcome. We are not super picky, but I'd like to have a good idea about the distance to Disney, and I run a small blog, so I'd like to know in advance about extra fees for wifi etc... Thanks bunches, and I will, of course, go through your links.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Please start by reading your messages.

The 3* property matches the Holiday Inn Hotel and Suite Anaheim (Walnut St) while the 3.5* property matches reports for the Sheraton Garden Grove Anaheim South, so that would be my best guess for each.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Thanks for your help. After reading all through the forum, I decided to use your PRICELINE links to bid on a 3.5 star.

I ended up getting the Red Lion Anaheim for 60.00 after starting at 45.00 and rebidding using your zone method.

I will add this report to the Priceline forum.

We won't have a car, so I'm not worried about the parking fee.

A little concerned about the walking distance to Disney, but very pleased with the rate and the hotel overall.

Apologies for not writing down my exact bids. I used your PRICELINE link to bid on a hotel in Anaheim. I started around 45.00 and rebid four times, adding zones as you suggest.

We won't have a car, so I'm not concerned about the parking fee.

I'm a little concerned about the walk, but we can always take the shuttle.

Thanks for all your help. I feel like I got a good rate for this hotel.
