3 reasons why to book a theme park area hotel

Top Destinations with Theme Park Area Hotels

Dollywood

Dollywood

Nestled in the heart of Tennessee, Dolly Parton's Dollywood pays homage to the Smoky Mountains in style. Alongside all the usual rides you'd expect, you can look forward to traditional crafts, music, and food from the area. Take this immersive experience to the fullest by staying at an on-site theme park hotel, where mountain views and rustic wooden furnishings await.

Carowinds

Carowinds

Carowinds is one of the biggest theme parks in the Carolinas, with no fewer than 60 rides and countless other attractions spread across a site covering a massive 400 acres. That means there's more than enough to keep you busy for a day—or more. Get the most out of your trip by staying at a hotel near the theme park, so you don't waste precious time traveling from your accommodations to the entrance gates each morning.

Courtyard Anaheim

Courtyard Anaheim

A hotel and theme park rolled into one, Courtyard Anaheim is home to Surfside Waterpark, a popular pick for little and not-so-little guests alike. With slides for travelers of all ages—plus a massive 17-person hot tub—there's no better way to enjoy the California sunshine without even stepping outside of your hotel's perimeter. But if you fancy a change of scenery, Disneyland® Resort is just a short drive away.

Silverwood

Silverwood 

A stone's throw away from Coeur d'Alene, Silverwood has all the rides you'd expect at a premier theme park, from the terrifying Aftershock to the breathtaking Corkscrew. During the fall, though, it takes on a different guise: Welcome to Scarywood, Silverwood's darker cousin. It's open until midnight on some evenings, which makes it worth booking a hotel close to the theme park so you can enjoy the spooky thrills before rolling straight into bed.

How much does it cost to stay overnight at Disneyland® Resort? 

The cost of accommodations at Disneyland® Resort in California varies depending on a range of factors, such as time of year and hotel occupancy. There are plenty of hotels to explore, from Disney’s Pixar Place Hotel to Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, so you can compare hotels and prices to find the best one for your trip. The time at which you book has an impact, as well: You'll sometimes be able to pick up great last-minute deals if you book at the eleventh hour. 

Which Universal Orlando Resort hotels include park tickets? 

Most theme park hotels at Universal Orlando Resort offer the option to add admission tickets to your room booking. Bundling your accommodations and park entry together doesn't just save you time: It saves money, too, with discounts of hundreds of dollars waiting for you. The specific hotels offering this benefit may vary from time to time, so be sure to read the fine print when you make your room reservation. 

What is the best hotel to walk to the parks at Universal Orlando Resort? 

Properties within the theme park itself—such as Universal Aventura Hotel or Universal Cabana Bay Beach Resort—are just a short walk from the heart of the action, so if you're only staying for 1 night, booking an on-property theme park hotel is one of the easiest ways to make the most of your time. However, there are plenty of other hotels within a brief stroll of Universal Orlando Resort but are technically outside the park. The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel at the Entrance to Universal Orlando is, as the name suggests, mere steps away from the park's entry gates, while the Holiday Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando by IHG is just on the other side of the street. 

Do theme parks have hotels? 

Yes, some theme parks have hotels located within the perimeter of the site. A popular choice with guests looking for a no-stress trip, staying at a theme park hotel enables you to save time and effort during your visit, with perks such as early admission and park shuttles promising a smooth stay. Plus, certain theme park hotels offer great-value all-in-one packages that bundle together your accommodations and your entry ticket—and save you money in the process. 

What is a theme park hotel? 

A theme park hotel is a hotel located within a theme park's site. These one-of-a-kind hotels are often designed to complement the theme park, with certain Disney hotels serving Mickey-shaped waffles for breakfast, for instance, or Dollywood hotels styled to conjure up a rustic, Smoky Mountains atmosphere. They often come with additional benefits, such as proximity to the park and early admission, for a fuss-free park experience. That makes them particularly popular with groups or families looking to make their theme park trip as smooth and straightforward as possible.
