"The pool alone is worth it."
some of the negative reviews gave me pause before we went, but we found this to be a perfect place to stay when doing Disneyland. Close, convenient, comfortable, and clean. The staff was friendly and efficient. The indoor play area, private ship, and especially the pool with water slides were huge hits with my kids. We'd stay there again happily.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Accommodations for 6!"
We had no plans to visit Disneyland Paris, but stayed here because it was the only place I could find close to Paris that would accommodate a family of 5. We stayed in a two room suite with 6 beds. It worked out well. The free shuttle bus took us directly to the train station where we purchased 3-day train passes. We could ride all trains, subways and […] busses unlimited. This way we saw all the major Paris sites quite easily as the train system is fantastic. I would highly recommend staying at Explorers even if you don't do Disney. The free breakfast buffet was a bonus, as was the swming pool. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Disneyland vacation"
The hotel was well located and since it had free shuttle/buses to the park every 20 minutes it made it very convenient. The beds were uncomfortable but other than that I really enjoyed it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Hotel for Families"
When we arrived my room was ready which I was very happy about considering other comments. Room was clean and comfortable. Hotel is a little out dated but decent for the price. Plantation restaurant host and cleaning staff were extremely helpful. Bus shuttle service to the parks were awesome...how my boys put it. :) Overall, the whole week experience […] was great! I couldn't have ask for a better Disneyland Paris vacation. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Kids liked the pool more than DisneyLand"
Good hotel. However, the food was really bland and way overpriced.Genuine Expedia guest review
Great location, great rooms. However, my car was vandalized and the hotel desk would not tell me how to call the police. They gave me an incident report and a map to the local police station who would not do a police report without an interpreter and would not tell me when to come back or how to get one. Frustrated!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Hotel for Dineyland Paris"
Travelling with a family of 6 wasn't easy but staying at Thomas Cook Explorer Hotel made it easy for us. Conviniently located to Disneyland, very good room for large family, reasonably priced, frequent shuttle bus service to and from Disneyland, very impresive indoor swimming pool and activities. Hard to find a fault at this hotel. We loved it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice place to stay with kids"
We arrived for a 3 day weekend with our older children. We intended to go to Disney on one day and spend the other two in Paris. The room was big enough for all 4 of us, the beds were comfortable, and the room was cleaned everyday. The staff was helpful and friendly. Transportation to Paris was simple and inexpensive. The only complaint I have is that […] in the fantastic pool area, there are no chairs for the adults who do not want to swim to sit on. We would definitely stay there again if we were goin to Disney.

"Explorers Hotel in France"
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The room was small but comfortable. The mattress was well decent not the softest I have had but not horrible. It was wierd that the toilet was in one room and the shower and sink to wash your hands in were in another ( not very good for hygiene but do able.) My kids loved the pool. The breakfast was unremarkable, could […] of had a better selection in my opinion. The location was excellent! Close to Disney and the train station if you want to go into Paris. We had a bit of a issue with the fact that I paid for a 6 person room but only got a 4 person room. There was only 4 of us but the kids would of prefered to sleep in a different room. I would definately stay here again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"good location, good service."
everything was ok except the swimming pool,which has such an amount of Chlore and no ventiation that it becomes unconfortable.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great for Kids"
Our family really enjoyed staying here. Our boys (5 yr old & 10yr old) loved the play area and especially the fantastic pool. They boys had a hard time leaving and hope to return soon. We live in California so it's a bit far to travel back any time soon. But we hope to return to Paris someday & staying at the hotel will definately be part of the plan. […] I highly recommend it to families with young kids. The shuttle to the Disney parks was great and on time. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet, but founf dinner a little too expensive, but you can order pizza for pick-up in the hotel or take the short shuttle ride to the Disney Village for other meal options. Can't wait to return. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great hotel for the whole family!"
Great location, great hotel and very efficient staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our trip, the shuttle service to Disneyland is regular and reliable. Only gripe.... A two euro charge per towel for swimming....meaning the pool is not 'free to use' and a crazy French rule regarding swim wear resulting in my husband not being able to join us in the pool....what […] could happen if he wore shorts instead of trunks which would be so bad?? Seeing as other guests were taking photographs on poolside and not being asked to stop, the trunks thing seemed very insignificant.... Otherwise, nothing but praise for the hotel, shame the pool stories had to mar an otherwise brilliant stay. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great for families with young children"
Really enjoyed our stay. Very easy with the children and they loved the pool! Great room for a family, well thought out design. Pretty close to the Disney parks.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"good surprise"
we were very pleased with the value we got for our money. we are a family of five and the room had plenty of space for us. our kids went nuts for thebplayground and pirate ship themed pool. it was very easy to take the bus to disneyland. we would definitely stay there if we go back to disneylandGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Lovely for parents with young children"
Very pleased with the convenience to Disneyland park and the availability of the shuttle bus. Loved the whole hotel set up with the play Center and the pool. The staff were really lovely and pleasant and helpful. Only downside was that our bathroom sink was blockedGenuine Expedia guest review
"great pool - good hotel"
the pool is good for children and has good slides, much better than you would expect for a hotel. The car park was busy one day. about 200 cars spaces and only about 10 free. the pillows are small and too soft. the breakfast was good with a lot of tables, so, there was never much of a queue.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Explorers"
Great hotel for exploring Disneyland. Great for children, fab breakfast. Excellent shuttle bus service. Poor pillows, but got extra when we asked for them.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Excellent location"
Nice, comfortable stay for 3 nights. Nice pool, decent breakfast and very convenient location if travelling by Eurostar with free shuttle bus every 15 minutes from and to Disney parks and train station.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great Hotel For The Family For Sure!"
We were very impressed with the swimming pool, it has water slides and a bucket that dumps water every few minutes, our children had a blast! We were in the pool twice a day! We were so happy with the bus connection to the train station and Euro Disney. We flew, but we think the Euro Star would have been just as cost effective as you have the free bus […] etc. Hotel Staff were always helpful, helping our teenager connect her phone to wifi etc. Games room was ok,as some games not working, but were fixed by the next day, air hokey a hit with our kids! Hotel has a few places to eat, but this was not cost effective for a family, and food was not the best, however the breakfast was amazing! We just had a standard room, which was fine, beds comfortable, room was small for 6 of us, but was fine for the price. Overall, I would diffidently recommend this hotel for a family! Very child friendly! Our Kids loved it! We were so happy with our choice of hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Very good. Everyone was very helpful. The hotel was clean and warm.Genuine Expedia guest review
"basic hotel ,ideal for families"
have stayed before asa we have 3 children and saddly no other Disney hotels cater for that !!! this trip the rooms seemed tired and in need of updating etc . Also there was only 1 bar open , with only 2 staff which clearly could not cope during the evening , with long ques just to buy drinks and not many seats :((((Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great hotel"
This was a great hotel for families although could help with some more information. Checkin is straight forward and the directions to the room are straight forward. If you get a family room (Called a crew room) try and avoid the room near the fire exit as this was used by staff early morning and late at night and was quite noisy. We were in room 436 […] which was clean and tidy and the beds were made up every day. We had to go to reception for more tea and coffee as this wasn't topped up. Milk was powdered so we brought some up from breakfast and left it on the windowsill to keep chilled (OK in November). The pool was a little chilly and very crowded in busy periods. All in all we would stay here again but would choose a summer period rather than winter. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great family hotel, fab pool, better than expected"
Good hotel, i was pleasantly surprised as it was cheaper than many. Accomodation- my friend and I shared a 6 person Crew Room. It worked well for us, we put our four children, ages 4, 6, 6 and 7½ in the main bedroom, and we took the bunk bed room off of it. Food- Breakfast was great, loads to choose from, croissants galore, cheese, ham, yoghurts etc, […] cooked brek if required- we didn't. One evening we did the buffet, loads of choice, perfect for all of us who were too tired to choose anything off a menu. The breakfast & evening meals were also fine for one of the kids who has a severe nut allergy. Cleanliness- room was clean, even the grouting in bathroom was clean. Room was tidied each day & bin empited. Location- good, the shuttle bus (large bendy bus) stops here first on the way to Disneyland Parc, which meant you had to go round the houses but you got a seat.On the way back, Explorers is the first hotel to drop off. The soft play was good, big for a hotel & it was next to breakfast, dinner, bar, so we could have our drinks in peace ! A bit scary at the end of the day though with lots of children all super tired & fractious, sit close & watch out for baddies ! We didn't have any problems so didn't have anything to do with the staff. Free wifi in hotel- just ask at reception for code, not the fastest but fine for emails.

"cheap hotel, good location.i"
Good hotel, frequent bus to Disneyland and you can get the train to Paris easily. Watch out for the pool, its €2 to rent a towel and you can't take the room towels in!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location, pretty pricey though."
Great hotel in terms of proximity to Disneyland, and the shuttle bus service was brilliant. The room was ok - beds were quite small and not that comfy. We had 2 unused single beds but needed a travel cot which made the room seem quite cramped. Would recommend bringing your own sheet too if using their travel cot as the one they provided wasn't fitted […] so got quite rucked up with a wriggling toddler! Bathroom wasn't in great condition but the shower was powerful and having a separate loo was quite handy. Our room didn't have a DVD player so would recommend bringing a portable one if poss as it costs 8euros to watch a film! Swimming pool was good - our little one loved it, and the food was nice too. Even the buffet restaurant had a good variety of dishes and of a good quality. Overall, it was good for what it was - a place to crash right next to Disney with excellent transport links, but pretty expensive for what it was. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Fridge accomodations."
I have a girl who is allergic to milk and eggs and nuts. It would have been nice if there was a fridge in our room. Instead I had to interrupt the staff many times to get my cooler out of the fridge so that I could make her sandwiches and heat up her food for supper and get her milk from the fridge. (soya) I had prephoned and explained, but a fridge […] would have been better in the room. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good Hotel"
Hotel staff were very helpful and pleasant - couldnt fault the food - lovely breakfast and also the all you can eat buffet was good value. so easy to walk from the hotel to both the parks and lots of paths around the have a run or walk - the only down for this hotel for me was the quality of the bed - very basic and so not overly comfortable, if the […] beds had been more comfortable i would have given it a 5. Overall i would say that this is a great value hotel great for all types of travellers Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

I am writng an email to the front desk regarding the cleaning staff wheras they assumed that I had cleared my room when this was not the case.

"Kids preferred hotel to Disney !!"
Good hotel, friendly helpfull staff, rooms basic but comfortable, be warned all milk is hot except for breakfast cereal. Kids wanted to be at the hotel more than disney it's self, which is not what we had planned !! Buses were regular and we were first stop from Disney and second to last pick up back to Disney.Genuine Expedia guest review
"great venue, good staff"

I took 3 children for a short break, at short notice, and chose the hotel on description of the swimming pool! And it didn't disappoint- the children loved it. We shared a room- the beds were comfortable and the room had everything we needed, although it was a tad small. The TV was a bit disappointing in its selection of channels, but luckily we were […] always too tired to watch it. The food was good, but very expensive. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Dispointment at the start but with a good finally"
When we arrived at the hotel we required two rooms as booked, but there were no rooms available. So even though we had booked flights, car hire, hotel and disney tickets all at the same time it would appear that they had over booked the hotel leaving us without a room. I asked to speak to the person in charge, I was then presented with the room division […] manager Nathalie Spearman who appeared tired and harassed. I was then told that we would have to travel to another hotel where we would spend our first night. I was not happy with this, but having our 4yr old grandson with us at 01.00am we needed to get him to bed. In the morning we arrived back at the Explorer to sort out the mix up, we where told that there was only one room avalible untill later, but was assured that when we returned from the disney parks that evening, everthing would be fine. So not wanting to waste any more of our time we accepted Nathalie Spearman's word and went to the parks. When we arrived back from the parks our rooms where ready for us. The hotel Explorers is a great hotel for families with a good swimming pool and play area. The free bus ride to Disney, which leaves ever 20 mins means our hire car was just a waste of money but were unaware of this at booking. Though we enjoyed our stay at the Explores Hotel our first night at an inferior venue spoiled the begining to what was to be a very special holiday for our grandson of 4(about to start to school on our return) and his pregnant mum.

Almost everything is great! Bus service, swimming pool, rooms and staff. My children never forget the swimming facility. Breakfast is the only problem I can mention as its downside. I was expecting more of eggs.....Genuine Expedia guest review
"good family hotel for younger chlidren"
Hotel was good, transport to the parks was good. Staff could have been a bit more responsive, and nicer! When talking to them they would just go off without explanation, and have a conversation with a fellow colleague, whilst dealing with you and not focusing on what you were asking!Genuine Expedia guest review
"A great hotel for the price"
Nice hotel situated very close to the Disney Resort with a shuttle bus on hand to transport you to and fro. Good selection at breakfast, although very busy at times. The pool and ball play area was great for everyone a real hit with my grandchildren. This was lovely to come back to after having a long day in the park. As both stayed open late the kids […] could unwind. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
