Our 5 year wedding anniversary is coming up at the tail end of August, and DH and I want to celebrate at DLR. We are seasoned visitors, normally staying at GCH or offsite across the street on Harbor (usually BWPPI). While BWPPI suits our needs for last minute trips, I wanted to go somewhere sort of special for our anniversary. We love GCH, but part of me wants to experience something new. I was looking at the Disneyland Hotel since we've never been and I love the idea of popping into Steakhouse 55 and/or Trader Sam's at a whim. I don't love the bathtub shower combination and the sink inside the bathroom, but this isn't really a deal breaker for us. While browsing DLH prices, I noticed that PPH theme park view club level was about the same price as a DLH standard room. I've stayed at PPH back when I was in college, and wasn't too impressed, but the theme park views are inciting (along with club level food perks). Another option is to stay at the new Courtyard, which is significantly cheaper than all onsite options (while still a newer, nice property). We would also have a confirmed King bed, which is especially nice.
I just can't decide! There seems to be pros and cons to each choice. Any insights would be helpful.

The E-ticket club at DLH is our favorite club level room and worth the splurge every once in a while. That being said, I’m not sure what the construction proceedings for the new resort/DTD will look like in August. Knowing Disney, I’m sure they’ll make the best of it for visitors, but it’s something to consider for stays at both DLH and PP. Happy Anniversary and good luck deciding!
