No. Only direct access to DCA. To access the Esplanade and DL's front gate, you need to either go through: (1) the GCH exit to DTD; or, (2) exit DCA's front gate. If the monorail is operational, you can enter DL in Tomorrowland via the monorail. To access the monorail from GCH, you must traverse through DTD. It would be shorter and more efficient to use the DL front gate from the GCH building rather than the monorail. But, nonetheless, the monorail is an access point when operational.
I misread your initial question. You can get to the front entrance to DCA through the GCH DTD exit. Other threads have stated that using the front entrance at DCA is better for accessing certain lands at RD.
Use caution with #2 if you have just entered DCA from the GCH (ie- don't go in the GCH entrance to DCA, walk straight out to the main gates and exit to go to Disneyland). They have a flag for tickets scanned at entrances to both parks within a 15 minute window that will require a manager or lead to approve your access to the second park. So don't use the GCH entrance to DCA as a "shortcut" to the DL main gates unless you plan to take some time or make some stops along the way. Obviously, this only applies to PH tickets and after 1pm parkhopping starts but is still something to be aware of.
Staying here in 5 weeks with my 3 favorite ladies. Looking so forward to it. We have stayed at WL quite a few times over the years and are really looking forward to making the GCH our home for a few nights. Enjoy!
On our first stay at GCH we were assigned a room the FARTHEST from the lobby.
This happened to us as well! We had 3 little girls, were assigned a room the furthest distance from the lobby you could have, and that walk was a KILLER. Since then, I've always requested a room either near the lobby or an elevator bank. I don't care about the view at GCH as much as I care how easy it is to get to and from the room.
