What You Will Find Here
Last year we visited Disneyland Paris. I must say we visited with trepidation, as we love Disney World Florida. However decided to give Paris a try. So here is what is great about Disneyland Paris.
We stayed at Disney’s New York Hotel.
The location of the Hotel was excellent, you stepped out of the hotel and you were at the top of Disney Village and just a short stroll from the Disney Parks. This was great at the end of a busy day as 5 minutes and you were in the hotel and able to chill with a nice glass of wine.
The hotel staff were so friendly and could not do enough for you.
As it was Halloween the Hotel was all trimmed up. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, breakfast was spread over several restaurants to make the experience more intimate, and it worked. We never once felt rushed; we were able to enjoy breakfast at our leisure. As the staff knew Jack suffered from Type 1 Diabetes they were happy for us to take away a snack in case he went low in the parks.
The pool was fantastic, we visited in the afternoons, which was great for us as we got to sit on a lounger and chill for a while ready for a hectic night back in the parks. Every day there was a couple of time slots for photo opportunities with the Disney Characters, we got to spend a little longer having our photos taken, and it was a touch more intimate than in the parks.
As it was Halloween the atmosphere was wonderful; the air was crisp and cool, and the leaves were falling from the trees.
As we walked through the avenues of Disney snug and warm wrapped up in winter coats and hats, the leaves crunched under our feet, and the boys threw them into the air and ran through them laughing, moments like that were as special as the parks themselves.
For all those princess fan out there, you will never see the Sleeping Beauty castle anywhere else in the world.
What I love about Disney is its consistency. When visiting the parks, you can expect the same quality as you experience in Florida or any other park.
Much to Chris and the Boys embarrassment my favourite ride is ‘It’s a small world’. And it was as wonderful here as it was in Orlando. The boys are very adventurous so could wait to get on Pirates of the Caribbean, again the quality and experience was fantastic and consistent with what I have come to expect from Disney.
We haven’t been to Disney World yet, but while we’re living in the US it’s definitely on our list!
Wow Sara you will love it, we are going in August it will be our 3rd visit to orlando I am so excited x
We love Disneyland Paris too – we are planning to go again next year. There is just so much to explore, I don’t think you would ever get bored! #CountryKids

We went to Disneyland Paris last Halloween. The decorations are amazing! So much fun!
Yes they are aren’t they Laura I loved it, all the skeletons, ghosts and pumpkins it was amazing x
Looks wonderful! Definitely want to take my girls here, but maybe my youngest needs to be a bit older for her to appreciate it a bit more before I can justify going! Hadn’t really thought about going in October but it sounds like a perfect time to visit!!
How old is your youngest Karen, we took both of ours to Orlando at 2 then have been every 3 years since, every time we have been they have seen it through different eyes x
We went the 2nd of November if I remember correctly for my sons 1st birthday we caught the end of Halloween celebrations and beginning of Christmas celebrations. Although he won’t remember we will and it was truly amazing.
Yes it is incredible isn’t it, Halloween is amazing there, I would love to go at Christmas too x
Reading that has brought bck some wonderful memories of my honeymoon in Disney, Florida as well as when we took my son to Euro Disney for his first birthday. The four days we were there were truly amazing, memories I’ll treasure forever.
Ah thank you, yes it all so magical isn’t it x
Oh wow Disneyland Paris looks amazing. I have been to Disneyland and Disney World in America but this looks and sounds great too. We are waiting for the kids to be a little older to remember and then go. This got me all excited for it though. Thank you ever so much for linking up to Share With Me. #sharewithme
It was amazing, my advice would be to go when there is an event on like Christmas or Halloween it was so amazing x
