The hype
Travelers love the modern design and rooftop pool but consistently complain about the parking costs and the walk to Disney.
The Viv Hotel, Anaheim, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel
$175-275 / öö
Broneeri, kui You want a grown-up, boutique vibe with a rooftop pool that feels like LA, but you're actually in Anaheim to take the kids to Disney.
Miks inimesed seda armastävad
- Adults-only rooftop pool with direct views of Disneyland fireworks
- Bunk bed rooms that actually give parents privacy
- Laminate flooring in rooms (no gross hotel carpet)
Kiire kokkuvõte: A stylish, high-end hotel stranded on the wrong side of the I-5 freeway, making it a shuttle-ride rather than a walk to the parks.
Vaadanud @jillsfoodtravels: I loved staying here—watching the Disneyland fireworks from my bed was unforgettable. The suite layout with the sofa bed gave us so much space, and dinner at Top of the V felt super upscale. It’s the perfect way to do Disney without sacrificing comfort.

Reality check
The 'resort fee' is mandatory, but if you use the daily $25 food credit and wine tasting, it actually pays for itself.
- You hate standard beige hotel carpets
- You want a break from 'Disney overload' when you return to the hotel
- You appreciate a good rooftop cocktail over a quick cafeteria breakfast

Sisealased nõuanded
- ✨
Hit the 'Valencia's' happy hour or wine tasting between 4-6 PM to maximize your resort fee value.
- ✨
The ground floor pool has a splash pad that is often less crowded than the main pool area.
- ✨
Request a 'Park View' room specifically if you want to see fireworks from your bed—otherwise you'll stare at a highway.
5 asja, mida peaksid teadma enne reisimist
💡The giant Lite-Brite wall in the lobby is actually playable and a massive hit with kids (and tipsy adults).
💡Top of the V restaurant has a weirdly specific obsession with duck dishes (try the Magret de Pato).
💡The 'adults only' pool rule is strictly enforced, which is rare for a Disney-area hotel.
💡There are Stormtrooper figurines hidden in the hallway decor—a fun scavenger hunt for kids.
💡The elevators can be painfully slow during the morning 'rope drop' rush (7-8 AM).
