We booked our trip with Disneyland Paris  directly to make the most of an offer they had on giving us 2 extra nights and 2 extra days free with free entry into the park for children under 7. Having originally thought we would go for 3 nights, 4 days this took us to 5 nights, 6 days at the Wild West themed Hotel Cheyenne which was about a 15 minute walk from the parks and a 10 minute walk to the Disney village.

We stayed in one of the newly decorated Texas Rooms which are Toy Story themed and provided a perfect base for our stay. We opted to travel by Eurostar rather than flying as we are less than an hour by train to London and connecting to the Eurostar from Kings Cross is super easy. It’s worth knowing that you can get significantly reduced fares on your train travel to Kings Cross St Pancras if traveling by Eurostar to Paris by contacting Eurostar Domestic Travel on 01233 617 913. Booking our Eurostar as part of a package with Disneyland Paris gave us Disney Express Tickets which meant that when the train arrived at Disneyland Paris with three (ok two) very excited little ladies we could go straight into the park and having dropped our bags at the designated point at the station they were taken straight to our hotel and the magic could begin straight away. This for me was fab and one of the many reasons why booking directly is top tip number 2.
