Absolutely could not rate this DoubleTree enough. The hotel had everything we needed and we wouldn’t hesitate to come back again.
The hotel shuttle bus to Disneyland was our primary reason for choosing this hotel and it did not disappoint. They provide available drop off and collection times, which is very useful for planning. The service was extremely friendly and reliable. Dave, Doug and Rey were all helpful and patient with us, as sometimes we had to bring forward our pick up time due to tired children. Rey in particular had our little ones in stitches and added a ‘Rey of sunshine’ to our only rainy day at the park. This direct shuttle service is an excellent perk to the hotel!
The rooms were also very clean and had all the amenities provided. The water pressure was decent and it came supplied with the necessary toiletries in the room. The only small moan is that we had to collect an extra towel each day, as we were only given 3 towel for four people but that wasn’t the end of the world. There was a fridge and a safe in the room, and the hotel is in walking distance of a Target.
There is also a Bar/Restaurant onsite, which was great if you returned to the hotel and didn’t want to venture out, or you could grab a Starbucks from there anytime after 6am. There was also a small convenience store in the hotel, which was very useful too!
Overall, The DoubleTree was everything we wanted and more as a family. And even though it was great for us, it also remained a quiet and professional environment for others staying at the hotel!

Solid Doubletree
Nov 3, 2023disneyfan131Orlando, Florida
This is a very solid newly refurbished Doubletree (2023) in Buena Park pretty close to both Knott’s Berry Farm and Disneyland. The room size is good, lots of outlets/plugs and it has a smart TV which less common in the Hilton Brand it seems. The hotel itself has an OK restaurant attached and it can be a bit sprawling if you are in the back…

This is a very solid newly refurbished Doubletree (2023) in Buena Park pretty close to both Knott’s Berry Farm and Disneyland. The room size is good, lots of outlets/plugs and it has a smart TV which less common in the Hilton Brand it seems. The hotel itself has an OK restaurant attached and it can be a bit sprawling if you are in the back building. The parking lot is big and doesn’t seem to fill up even during peak times. The Knott’s shuttle seems to be inconsistent with timing so I would recomend planning to Uber - it should be cheap. Service was good and the hotel was very clean.

I stayed here for 14 nights and overall its a great place to stay.
The staff are ALL very friendly which is rare and housekeeping work so hard.
I do feel the showers could be better with water pressure and I asked a few others guests in case it was just my room.
They agreed showers not the best.
For us the pillows were not that great as would lose there shape very easily.
Also there were staining 'still clean' on bedding.
That said I really like the rooms and they are to a good standard with a great big TV and comfy sofa. They should provide a microwave like most hotels In the area do.
Pool are looks lovely.
For some reason the elevators are kinda slow even though only 4 floors. I have stayed in sky scapers with faster elevators.
The restaurant at the hotel I went to twice. I have to say the service is not the best. You wait a long time to be seated 'like sign says' to then be told sit where you like. A lot of people were complaining they felt they were waiting too long even though its fairly quiet. I had to wait 10 mins to get noticed. Nearly 30 mins for breakfast to arrive only for the steak to be cold.
Then had to wait quite a while for the check.
This does reflect a bit on the hotel as everything else overall is great.
That said the young guy that makes coffee for you in the morning is great!
I know there have been some negatives, but I still would recommend this hotel.
Your staff are a real credit to you!!!

Room for improvement
Oct 28, 2023evaaa90
Some improvements are needed on the cleanliness. There were stains on most of our towels. There were some also red stains on the carpet and wall in our room. One of the bed quilts also had a few unappealing stains on too.
Becky on reception is the reason I’ve given 4 stars. She was very friendly and helpful in answering our queries.
Perfect

Lovely and clean everywhere . Very friendly and helpful staff . The pool area nice with a little spa
Great location , few shops about 10mins away on a road with various restaurants. The free shuttle bus to Knotts berry and Disney made life much easier, David was a great guy/ driver very helpful and friendly . Was never a issue that my other half wasn’t the best at getting mobility scooter on/ off the shuttle
Would definitely stay here again when we revisit California

Your holiday may be affected by travel restrictions or cancellations
We are continually reviewing our flying schedules, taking into account the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) advice against all non-essential travel. Depending on when you are due to travel, your holiday may be affected and we’ll email you to let you know as least 21 days before travel.
Your next holiday is only a click away - our website has thousands of options ready to book. But if you need more help, just give us a call on 0344 472 9646.
With many customers needing our help, we are prioritising those customers due to travel before 31 December 2020. Log in to Manage my booking where you can message us about your options or you can give us a call. Bear in mind you may have to wait longer than expected. We continue to review this and working to open up these options to more customers. In the meantime check out our FAQs to see if this can help answer any immediate questions.
Rest assured; we will notify you as soon as we know if your holiday has been affected by email.

Don’t worry if you’ve missed a payment or just need a little more time to pay; we have options available to help you. If your holiday is going ahead as planned, you can continue to pay for your holiday in Manage my booking, even if travelling in less than 12 weeks. If you’re unsure, you can delay any additional payments by choosing a new time to travel by requesting a call back in Manage My booking for one of our team to look at options. If your holiday is more than 6 months away, you may wish to set up a Direct Debit to spread the cost. This can be arranged whilst rebooking or afterwards in Manage my booking.
We understand that you may wish to change your holiday plans and we appreciate the need for flexibility.
We'll be in touch by email letting you know how to register to change your holiday plans. You can also log into Manage my booking to find the details there.
Please look out for emails from us or visit our dedicated Covid-19 (Coronavirus) page for the latest updates.
If we haven’t notified you of any changes, your holiday will be going ahead as planned but if you prefer to move your holiday to a later time we can help. You can call our team on 0344 472 9499 who can look at options for you.
Payments are being prioritised based on when the request was made, working in order from March 2020 onwards. We will always try to process refunds at the earliest opportunity, for requests before August our maximum timeframe is 120 days. As we are steadily reducing the maximum processing time for each new request, for refund requests made in August, we expect the maximum processing time to be 80 days, from the date the refund is requested. For those requesting a refund in September, we expect it to be processed within a maximum of 60 days, and then reduce to 30 days for refunds requested in October, before returning to normal levels.
To finalise the amendment, one of our customer advisors will phone you. We need to work through amend requests in departure date order so we can prioritise those with the most imminent travel plans, so you may have a longer wait than usual until we’re able to ring you back. We will help everyone that wants to move their holiday.
I returned early from holiday and have further questions?
You can contact our team by emailing feedback.backhome@virginholidays.com to discuss options on unused portions of your holiday. If you need to contact our team about amending an existing holiday or requesting a refund please log in to manage my booking.
