Located just four blocks from Disneyland, the Residence Inn Anaheim is a great hotel for family vacations. Real Traveler’s rate this hotel a 4.4 out of 5 based on 97 reviews from across the web.

An interesting fact about this hotel: more than half of the rooms in the hotel are two bedroom suites. With this said, there are four different types of two bedroom suites, the smallest fitting six people, the largest fitting eight guests. This is perfect for large families who are traveling, as everyone can be accommodated in one suite, rather than two separate hotel rooms. In addition, the hotel’s large dining area makes it easy for families to have a sit-down meal together. Families will also enjoy the on-site movie theatre (popcorn included) that is open from 6-8pm every Thursday through Saturday. Even better, guests love the ice cream social. This allows hotel staff to become acquainted with guests and establish relationships while snacking on some savory scoops of ice cream. In one instance, a guest at the social expressed concern because her husband was sick, and she was running back and forth, between the hotel and Disneyland with her kids. Taking note of this, staff members delivered soup to the guest’s sick husband, demonstrating their concern for their clients.

Attracting mostly family travelers, the Residence Inn Anaheim has a special promotion, rewarding kids who do well in school. Kids who got a 3.0 or above on their report card, within the last year, receive 10% off their hotel stay. Government travelers also frequent this hotel with their family members, as the Residence Inn Anaheim honors the government’s per diem rate.

A few extras— The hotel also includes a full buffet style breakfast, a sports court complete with basketball and volleyball equipment, as well as complimentary barbecue grills for those who wish to enjoy the sunny Southern California weather. For those looking to venture out, the hotel is just two blocks away from the convention center, and within a half mile there are about 25 different restaurants to choose from.

Brian Wagoner, Director of Sales and Marketing at the hotel, describes the Residence Inn as the “ideal location for families when traveling to Anaheim.” With the perfect location, and plenty of activities for the kids, it’s no wonder families chose to stay at this hotel.

Grand Hyatt DFW must be doing something right! With a Real Traveler rating of 4.8 out of 5, based on 20 reviews from across the web, guests can’t help but rave about this hotel!

Vince Vito, Director of Sales and Marketing for the Grand Hyatt, tells Real Travel that guests are usually surprised when they walk into the hotel. He explains, “Airport hotels do not always have a positive connotation.” However, when guests visit the Grand Hyatt, they are taken back by the appearance and atmosphere, as it has the feel of a boutique hotel. One guest comments, “The hotel decor is beautiful - modern and extremely clean.”

Centrally located between Dallas and Forth Worth, the Grand Hyatt attracts many business travelers and hosts business meetings in its two conference centers as well as its meeting rooms. As a special practice for business travelers, the hotel offers a “Business Plan” in which guests pay a $25 upgrade fee and recieve free breakfast, free internet, and can have two shirts pressed. This plan provides added value for business travelers and saves them time!

What about the staff? At the Grand Hyatt DFW, management is very cautious about who they hire. Those who are chosen to work at the Hyatt, are believed to possess an innate talent for service, and go through an extensive training program. As part of their motto, the Hyatt DFW makes it their goal to “deliver authentic hospitality.” With this in mind, the Hyatt looks to hire individuals who have a desire to help others.

Finally, one of the Hotel’s most unique offerings can be found at Moka, the twenty-four hour coffee bar. The original “iTaste” option allows guests to choose from chocolate, wine, or cheese tasting. Once the guest has decided, hotel staff brings the guest an ipod so they can watch a taste-testing podcast. During the podcast, a chef walks guests through the food they are tasting. In addition, once a month at the Hotel’s Epicurean Studio, guests can participate in an interactive cooking class with the chef. This makes for great culinary entertainment while staying at the hotel!

Described as a “luxury hotel in the ultimate convenient location,” Grand Hyatt DFW provides guests with spectacular service and unique entertainment.
