Especially for the hotels within walking distance. The room rate will make or brake our trip. We've never had a problem finding a decent priced room around this time...until now. I called the Hojo and asked about the entertainment rate. I was told it was 10% off and that the other rate wasn't showing up available yet. I'm hoping that since she said YET there might still be hope of getting it. Has anyone gotten that rate for Dec? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

You can look them up right on the Holiday Inn web site and seach for all available Holiday Inn branded hotels in Anaheim (it's on a pull down menu under rate preference). I see $69 for Holiday Inn and Suites on Walnut Ave ,$63 for Candlewood Suites in Garden Grove and $74 for Crowne Plaza in Garden Grove for your dates.

That equals tired feet at the end of the week, but it's worth it I know the Hojo may not have that rate for our dates. I just wasn't sure when they released the great rate. Thanks for all of your suggestions. I have my heart set on going. Haven't been around the holidays for 5 years. It's my favorite time of year at Disneyland!

Originally Posted By nickapoohiluvu Even if the Hojo doesn't have the $54 entertainment rate, try anyway. We did get a rate of $84 for Veteran's Day weekend for a King Non-Smoking Room, still far cheaper than the going rate at many other hotels and they are within walking distance. If the walk isn't too far for DH and myself in November, I'm going to try and get the EB rate in February when we all go.
