We are looking at going Oct half term but wanting to go on a bit of a budget seeing that we will be purchasing annual passes.
Can anybody recommend a good hotel/apartment within walking distance to the park, thanks
Kyriad is usually the cheapest I've seen. Use Trivago to price, set the location as Disneyland Paris or Marne La Vallee and use distance as a sort option.
HiPark Serris is 0.9 miles away (20 min walk) and is very nice inside!
I have stayed at the Hipark Serris. It is indeed a nice hotel. It's clean and the rooms are quiet and have everything you want.
Breakfast is nice, with enough choice, but it's a little expensive in my opinion.
My sister stayed in the Kyriad hotel. I think this is usually the cheapest. She thought it was ok, but of course she was in the parks most of the day.
I'm going to Explorers hotel this year as it was the cheapest at the moment we booked (including breakfast and free parking) so I would say, check some sites to see which hotel you like and what the prices are. ;)
Thanks for your responses still looking for the best options, price, location free parking etc. :D
Hey.
During NYE last year we stayed in the Prestige Park & Suites. Its really nice, rooms are comfortable and they run a shuttle bus to and from the park which takes about 5mins maximum. Their Prices are really reasonable. I would use them again without worry.
We've stayed at the Adagio for the last three years. The price varies, depending on how long you stay. Its slightly further away from Disney than Hipark, but there is a free shuttle bus (which we haven't used) or its a ten minute drive. The hotel is self catering, so you can save money on food.
Depending on how long you're going for, look at buying an annual pass rather than day tickets. I think its cheaper for an annual pass than a four day ticket. They include free parking, shop / restaurant discounts and you can use them for a year. You can buy them on the gate (ask on here for sponsorship and you can get 10% discount), or from discount websites before you go.
Maybe it's just my family size, but I've always found the Davy Crockett ranch to be the cheapest option for us, even compared to staying off site, and if only one of you purchased an annual pass, I believe you could book the room with AP discount, also that would give you free parking, BUT, it is a self drive destination. If driving is something you'd consider, you'dprobably find this a cheaper travel option aswell.
We stay in apartments in Montrevain (? check spelling :) )basically near Val d'Europe- which is one train stop from the park so never needed to take the car in except on the last when we check early so can spend day in park- we have dream passes so carpark is free.
We just came back from 3 nights in the Sejours et Afairs -in a 1 bedroom (4 person) apartment. I paid 70 euro for 3 nights!! It is less then 5 minutes walk to the free number 50 peps bus and about 30 seconds further to the train. It was not luxurious at all, but was clean, shower and beds were good, had a fridge and a microwave and was very cheap!!
For a budget trip I would definatley book here again :)

That is an amazing deal you got their amanda08..Even better having a microwave and fridge in room.."BARGAIN" :)
HiPark is great, we've stayed there 3 times and will be going back again for Halloween. The bus is reliable but gets really really busy of a morning so have walked to the Parks on occasion which is fine, it is a very easy, quick walk. The apartments themselves are really nice, we had a huge balcony overlooking the pool when we stayed in the summer which was fab! Toaster was included as well which i loved :D I wouldn't go back to Parks and Prestige purely because the shuttle was so unreliable. Last time we stayed there, it was not on time once for pick up from the Park by at least 15/20 minutes (which is a reeeeally long time to try and keep a severely autistic lad occupied!) and for Halloween night it turned up 2 hours late to pick us up from the apartment as it had broken down.The reception did not offer this information freely, they kept insisting it was on its way so there was no need to get a taxi. Spoiled our trip as the little lad was so upset and confused.

Did you get a good deal on this hotel...All sounds good about the place :)
I think it was about £200 for 4 nights for the 4 of us. It works well for us as we have Annual Passes so dont need the tickets or EMH that you get when you stay at the hotels! I hope you get a great deal and have an amazing time :D

I have already booked to go next Oct..We are staying at the Hotel New York..But will keep in mind the next time i book and look at that HiPark...That sure is a good deal :)
I too recommend Hipark, we're hoping to stay there again in October (and probably again in November ;))
Rooms are excellent, and it's really close to the parks - we always park in the Disney Village (even if we need to pay, it's so close to the parks that we simply can't resist it...) and from the hotel to the DV carpark is less than 5 minutes.
They do have a parking in the hotel but you need to pay, we always manage to find a spot in the streets around the hotel (though not always very close)
We've done the Prestige Park and Suites once, it was OK, rooms a bit more basic (and used) than Hiparl, but it was OK. I would go there again if the prices were much lower than Hipark...
A bit further out but there are some very good hotels in Bussy-Saint-Georges all within 5-10 minutes of the metro station and lots of supermarkets and places to get food you can stock up on the way to and from to save on your food budget. I usually stay at the Villa Bellagio for budget trips to DLP as it is usually the best price most times of year and have a kitchenette and fridge.
If you are driving there is a lovely little village up the road closer to the parks called Jossigny that have a charming place called Auberge Du Cheval Blanc. Again always one of the cheapest even compared to the Première Classe and Campanille type places. Its probably because you need need a vehicle to get to it but its only 5-10 minute drive away from DLP. If one of you have the Dream AP you'll get free parking anyway.
If you want to save a little more be happy to get you my shareholder discount on your APs if you are there on the same dates as me. Will be going a couple times in October =) ºoº
HI Mac thanks for advise, we will be there on Monday 27 October, we would really appreciate if you or someone else could sponsor us, with a dream pass. At what time can you access the Disney carpark, as we would like to make use of the emh. ;D

Don't you have to have the name or address for shareholder discount (15%)? You can definitely do annual pass sponsorship (10%).
If there are any children buying annual passes, check out discount-ticket-store . com before you go, as they sell childrens annual passes, which you can't buy at the park (children have to buy the same pass as adults at the park). Dream passes are £89, Fantasy passes are £75.
Looks like that will work out perfectly andlorna, am there the first and last weeks of October! Are you arriving on the Monday or will that be the first full day you are going in to the parks? =) ºoº

Either way you have to have the sponsor there when you get your APs and they already have all the sponsors details =) ºoº
It's a shame you're not driving, as the cheapest hotel option could be Premiere Classe at Torcy (15-20 min drive). Often around £25-30 per night.

Hi Amanda08, thanks for posting that, that place sounds perfect for what we need on our next trip! (we are doing 5 nights in the Cheyenne, then were looking to get an apartment near Paris & the parks for a week or so directly after, to explore Paris, Val de Europe etc without wasting money on park tickets for every day).
I've just searched the Sejours-Affaires website, and it came up with 10 results near Val de Europe. Do you remember if you were in Nanterre? That seems the closest. Could you give me more info on the "free peps bus" you mentioned? Where do you get it from, who runs it , do they speak English etc? We are a little nervous about booking a cheap place outside of Paris city Centre and not being able to find our way to and from the parks etc!
(sorry for teh double post everyone, not sure how to quote two people in one post)

Hi Mac, thanks for the info, when you say within 5-10 minutes, do you mean walking or driving? You can see from my last post we are looking for a cheap base to stay in and commute to the parks, Paris, and Val de Europe, to extend our stay after 5 nights in the Cheyenne. We will be one foot and will be our first time as Tourists outside of the parks or city centre, so are a little nervous of getting lost!

That's great Mac we hopefully will be getting an early Euro Tunnel crossing so will be arriving Monday morning. I will contact you nearer the time if that's ok.

the one i stayed at was Rive Gauche -Serris. The number 50 peps bus is the free shuttle bus that goes between Disney and the partner hotels. This does not include the Sejours but it is only a couple of minutes easy walk to the Hotel Elysee where it does stop. This bus will take you straight to the parks in about 10 minutes. Lots of people getting on/off the bus and there are more then 1 set of doors, so no need to talk to the driver apart from a Bojour :) (but if you get on via the back or middle doors you wont even see him)
The Sejours is about a 4 minute walk to one end of the Val de Europe shopping center so perfect location for that and there are lots of different restauarants and bars etc.

Hi SamuelV, all the hotels I mentioned are 5-10 minute walking distance to the RER. Bussy-Saint-Georges is a good base with lots of shops and places to eat. Its a little far from Paris city centre but one stop from Val'D and 2 from the parks. =) ºoº
