When you’re planning your trip, proximity to the Disneyland Resort is important. But don’t think that you need to be within walking distance to have a great Disneyland experience! We’ve rounded up some of the best hotels that are a bit farther away, but have such amazing rooms and amenities that you won’t even notice! Let’s look at some great hotels within 5 miles of Disneyland.
