The Best Hotels in Paris for Families Visiting Disneyland
Choosing the right hotel makes or breaks a Disneyland Paris family trip. Explore the best on-resort and Paris city stays — plus stress-free transfer tips.
Planning a Disneyland Paris trip with children involves a lot of moving parts. Park tickets, dining reservations, ride strategies, packing lists, and somewhere in the middle of all of that, the hotel decision. It matters more than people realise, because where you stay affects not just how well everyone sleeps, but how smoothly the whole trip runs.
The good news is that families visiting Disneyland Paris have genuinely good options, from the Disney hotels on the resort itself to Paris city hotels for families who want to combine a few days in the capital with their park visit. Here is an honest guide to the best choices across both.
Staying on the Resort: Disney Hotels
If your trip is primarily about the parks, staying at the Disneyland Paris resort is worth the premium. Early park entry, no transfer logistics, and the ability to walk back to the hotel for naps and rest, these are real advantages when you're managing young children across a long day.
Disneyland Hotel
Located right at the park entrance, this iconic pink hotel recently underwent a massive Royal renovation and is now the ultimate luxury splurge with a princess theme, character encounters, and a private entrance experience. It is the highest-end option on the resort and priced accordingly, but for families celebrating a milestone or wanting the absolute best, there is nothing else at Disneyland Paris that compares. Children who are into the princess theme specifically will remember this hotel as much as the park itself.
Disney's Hotel New York, The Art of Marvel
This is the standout choice for families with older children and teenagers who are more interested in Marvel than fairy tales. The Marvel art gallery throughout the hotel is genuinely impressive, the rooms are spacious, and the location is excellent. Bed rails are available at Hotel New York and The Art of Marvel, making it one of the safer choices for families with younger children who need them.
Disney Sequoia Lodge
Sequoia Lodge offers a cosy, rustic atmosphere and features a pool, making it ideal for families who enjoy time out of the parks. It consistently ranks as one of the best value options among the moderate Disney hotels, comfortable, well-located, and with a warmth to the design that feels genuinely inviting after a long park day. One note worth knowing: Sequoia Lodge refurbishment started in January 2026, beginning with the outer buildings, so families planning a trip later in the year may experience some disruption in certain areas.
Disney's Hotel Cheyenne
Hotel Cheyenne provides a fun Wild West theme that kids love, though it doesn't have a pool. What it does have is excellent value and a genuinely fun atmosphere that younger children respond to immediately. The walk to the park is slightly longer than from the premium hotels, but still very manageable. For families on a tighter budget who still want the on-resort experience, this is consistently one of the most recommended options.
Staying in Paris City: The Best Family Hotels
Many families spend two or three days in Paris itself before or after the Disney visit. For that combination trip, a Paris city hotel with family-friendly credentials makes much more sense than commuting from the resort.
Novotel Tour Eiffel
While it looks like a business hotel, Novotel Tour Eiffel is fantastic for families. It features a heated indoor pool, rare in Paris, spacious rooms that comfortably fit four, and a solid breakfast buffet. The location in the 15th arrondissement is safe, well-served by transport, and close enough to the Eiffel Tower that walking there with children is straightforward. The pool alone puts this ahead of most comparable options in Paris.
Fraser Suites Le Claridge
Fraser Suites Le Claridge on the Champs-Élysées is the best luxury option with kitchens, a genuinely practical feature for families who want the flexibility to prepare simple meals rather than eating every meal at restaurant prices. Suites are generous in size, the location is central and prestigious, and the kitchen facility removes one of the biggest daily stresses of travelling with children.
Staycity Aparthotel Gare de l'Est
Staycity Aparthotel Gare de l'Est is the ultimate practical choice for budget-conscious families. Clean, modern studios with kitchenettes are located right near a major transport hub, making it easy to get anywhere in the city. For families who are spending most of their time at Disneyland Paris and using the city hotel purely as a base, this combination of affordability, practicality, and transport access is hard to beat.
Getting Between Paris and Disneyland Paris
Whichever hotel you choose, on the resort or in the city, the transfer between Paris and Disneyland Paris is a decision worth thinking about carefully.
The RER A train is the standard option and works adequately for solo travellers and couples. For families with children, buggies, and luggage, it is a different experience. Navigating the Paris Metro system, managing bags on crowded platforms, and keeping everyone together across a connection at Paris Nord is genuinely stressful at the start or end of a full Disney day.
Paris Eagle Cab provides private door-to-door taxi transfers between all Paris airports, CDG, Orly, and Beauvais, Paris city hotels, and Disneyland Paris. Your driver is at the agreed pickup point with a name board. Luggage is handled. Children can be accommodated in appropriate child seats specified at the time of booking. And the journey is direct, no changes, no platforms, no crowd navigation.
For families who have invested in a special trip, getting the transfer right is part of making the whole experience feel seamless rather than stressful.

A Few Practical Notes Before You Book
Whichever hotel you choose, a few things consistently make a difference for families visiting Disneyland Paris.
Book as early as possible. The Disney hotels, particularly Disneyland Hotel and Hotel New York, fill quickly during school holidays and summer. The best rooms in family-friendly Paris city hotels go the same way.
Check the room configuration carefully. A room that sleeps four does not always mean four people sleep comfortably. Suites and connecting room options are worth the additional cost when you have multiple children or need separate sleeping spaces.
The Baby Care Centre at Disneyland Paris is located in both parks, in Disneyland Park on Main Street U.S.A. near the Plaza Gardens Restaurant, and in Disney Adventure World behind Studio Services. These centres have microwaves, bottle warmers, a breastfeeding area, and a small store selling formula, nappies, and pharmacy items. Knowing this before you arrive removes a significant source of stress for families with very young children.
The trip is worth doing properly. The hotel and the transfer are part of that.
