I would appreciate any information as I have always stayed off-site and the first days will be at Hojos in a Premium Park View Room but as it is my daughter's 10th birthday, I want to book a room there and pay for a view but want the best value for my money. I will appreciate any information.

Depending on your room, you can see the Matterhorn, and bits of other landmarks. And I love hearing the music from DTD drifting up to my window at night. (some people do not like that, but I love it) I also like seeing people coming and going through DTD. It is a fun view for sure!

As you said MickeyMommy we love listening to the music, people, watching people enter and leave the park, and also watching the fireworks. We also like that you can't really see outside of the Disneyland Resort so you feel immersed in it all! Enjoy your view and stay Liveforvacations!!!
Originally Posted By liveforvacations Thanks for everyone's input! Well I called back and changed my upper pool view to a DTD view and requested the Dreams tower and 2 queens. I was surprised that the CM said that not all the DTD view rooms were in the Dreams tower. What other tower would afford views of DTD? Oh well, I figure that there are less DTD views and you have more of a chance of being in the Dreams tower so if I were to get there and discover that I preferred the pool view, it would probably be easier to change.

This room was great - BUT - the bathroom was tiny in comparison to the Dreams tower rooms. We have stayed 7 or 8 times in the Dreams tower, and have always gotten the same layout: two queens with a day bed, and large bathroom with two sinks and seperate water closet (toilet). The Wonder tower bathroom was about half the size. So if bathroom size is a factor, definetly stick with the Dreams tower, IMO. Have a great trip!
