Our kids absolutely loved this place, one of the days we stayed here it was 44 degrees celcius, and the resort let everyone stay in the pool until well after midnight. It was a highlight of our Disney trip. If we head back to Disneyland, this will be the first place we book. Although the only downside was that we... More

Stayed here for 7 nights, in building 1 facing the I-5. Have to say it was one of the quietest hotels ever, cannot hear the highway at all (due to upgraded windows), and cannot hear neighbors above or below. Only thing is that we wished there was a swimming pool, not just a water playground - as we travel with... More

Stayed for 3 nights, the last stop on our California roadtrip. Picked the HoJo as it was reasonably priced and perfectly located for our Disneyland trip. Check-in was good, the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were in a premium room in building one, facing Disneyland, with a view of Space Mountain. First thing I noticed was the traffic...

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights last month (May 2012) and were thrilled with our choice! We are a family of 5 with 3 kids aged 7, 5 and 3 and so we fit perfectly into one of the kids suites, with the two rooms with their own bathroom each. There was plenty of space, the rooms were... More

Our family chose the Howard Johnson Plaza Hotel based on the ratings and reviews that we read on this site several months ago; since the reviews were so positive, we had pretty high expectations for this hotel. The Howard Johnson Plaza met and exceeded all of our expectations. Our first positive experience began with the wonderful staff. We arrived a... More

We just returned from 5 nights at the Howard Johnson Anaheim(HJA) and we LOVED IT! Their website is 100% accurate on everything that they do and do not offer - no surprises whatsoever. We were not set to arrive until 11:00PM. In reading the reviews of others, I followed someone's lead and placed a grocery order with Von's(Safeway)on-line. They had... More

Stayed here with my family (ranging in ages from 5 years old, 20's, 30's, and 50's) It's just a regular old hotel, other than the water park which was very cool, esp for kids, but it's nice, clean, and close to Disneyland. I think it's about a 10 min walk, if that, to the front gates, so very convenient. Maje... More

We recently had 5 families with ages ranging from 2 years to 65 year old and we all loved this hotel. Great location, within walking distance to serveral family restaurants, and Disneyland. The water playground it great for children, the rooms are spacious and clean, the most comfortable I've slept in! The staff are friendly and helful and nothing is... More

My family and I just spent 5 nights and staying with HoJo whilst in town was one of the best choices we made. Great location, great service, and lots of room to move. We regularly had dinner atis Cafe across the road and found the service and food perfect! We stayed in Building 2 overlooking the pool and found it... More
