Fodor's "The most opulent of Disney's Anaheim hotels, this Craftsman-style luxury property has guest rooms with views of the California Adventure park and Downtown Disney." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The price tag is a bit steep at this 751-room resort designed in richly wooded Craftsman style, but standard rooms sleep up to two adults and four kids."
Frommer's "Disney didn't miss the details when constructing this enormous version of an Arts and Crafts-era lodge... hiring craftspeople... to contribute one-of-a-kind tiles, furniture, sculpture, and artwork." Full review
Jetsetter "Disney's Grand Californian is the first hotel to be built inside a Disney park, and the American Craftsman hotel combines luxe amenities with family fun — and function." Full review

If you want to avoid lines, book The Magic Morning package offered to guests of the three Disneyland Resort hotels that lets you into the park an hour before the official 8 A.M. opening.
Lonely Planet "Soaring timber beams rise above the cathedral-like lobby of the six-story Grand Californian, Disney’s homage to the Arts and Crafts architectural movement."
Travel + Leisure "Disneyland's choicest digs, done in traditional Craftsman style. In addition to kid- and adult-friendly fare, California Adventure Park is just a turnstile away. Everybody wins." Full review
Time Out "This Disney hotel aims to blur the lines between luxury and fantasy: the 745-room property is effectively an extension to Disney's California Adventure." Full review
Michelin Guide "Built in early 20C Craftsman style, this hotel is reminiscent of the great national-park lodges."
Star Service "Service is friendly, but ebbs and flows like the tide. Nevertheless, effort is always on the table, and there's nothing the staff won't do to please." Full review
Gayot "This luxury hotel redefines the Disneyland you know and love by providing top quality, even lavish accommodations for discerning theme park guests."

Concierge "The legendary "Pink Palace" opened in 1912, and the city of Beverly Hills literally grew around it. Today, the landmark Spanish Colonial building, still painted a garish Pepto-Bismol..."
Fodor's "Remarkably still at the top of her game, the "Pink Palace" continues to attract Hollywood's elite after 100 years." Full review
Lonely Planet "Staying here means dwelling in the utmost of luxury." Full review

"On 12 acres of lush grounds, this historic hotel is a serene, luxurious escape five minutes from Rodeo Drive." Full review
DK Eyewitness "It’s no longer the trendiest of LA’s luxury hotels, but its exalted place in Hollywood history remains."
Rough Guide "The classic Hollywood resort, with a bold colour scheme and Mission-style design, and surrounded by its own exotic gardens."
Time Out "The famous pink stucco façade, the manicured grounds and the sumptuous rooms of the Beverly Hills Hotel look as fresh and fanciful as they did on opening day 100 years ago." Full review
Star Service "Wedged between Benedict Canyon and Crescent Drive, one-half mile north of Wilshire Boulevard, this is the most fabled hotel in Beverly Hills, attracting both celebrities and the tourists..." Full review
Gayot "Despite its great age, the "Pink Palace" is more alluring than ever, with its coral-pink façade, signature banana-leaf wallpaper and twelve lush acres of tropical gardens."
BlackBook "Phenomenal bungalows where aging A-list actresses recover from facial overhauls. Great pool scene."
