Hello all,

I live in the Valley of beautiful LA. My girlfriend and I were thinking about taking a "trip" to the DLR for a night as a weekend getaway type vacation (though it would probably be during the week due to crowds/prices/etc.) We REALLY want to stay on property at the Grand Californian or DL Hotel, but are having a hard time finding a room. We could go either next week (if we can find a room) or the second week in August. Do any of you have any suggestions on finding a room or a package that would work? What are the details about the AAA package and would that be helpful in our quest? I have a deluxe AP if that helps any. Thank you so much for your help!

Since you have an AP, call the reservations number and ask for an AP rate for the hotels. You might be able to get a discount on a room if they have any available.

My wife and I have had luck with using Expedia to find a room. If the hotels are close to being booked they you wont have any luck.

See this thread about previous posts/reviews about the GCH. Somewhere in there, there is also a post by MP's Darkbeer about a site to get good hotel rates.

The above link is the one site Dark had mentioned.

Check out expedia.com. I got a room at the Grand Californian for $209 (the Paradises Pier was $179) on July 31st.
