We travelled to France on 17th October, which meant the park was already fully decorated for Halloween.

We stayed at the newly refurbished Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel, and the décor was amazing — not just inside the hotel, but also in the bedrooms and carried right through into the gardens outside.

There was also a great chance to meet a superhero at the hotel, and we met Spider-Man! It’s definitely worth booking if you have a little one with a favourite Marvel hero.

We were at Disneyland Paris for four nights and loved how close the hotel was to the parks. It was easily within walking distance, which made things so much easier.

Day 1 🎢

On our arrival day we headed straight into Disneyland Park, as most of the Disney Village shops don’t open until 5pm.

The Disneyland Paris official app was a real help. We used it to follow the park map, check wait times, and decide where to head next — or rather, where our 5-year-old grandson wanted to head next!

His favourites were Buzz Lightyear Laser Blast, Mad Hatter’s Tea Cups, Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Pirates of the Caribbean. We found the wait times on the app were pretty accurate too.

Another tip that really helps is to wear comfy shoes. You walk miles during a Disneyland Paris trip, especially when you’re trying to squeeze in as much as possible.

We ate at Plaza Gardens on our first day. It’s a buffet restaurant with loads of choice, so it was easy to find something for everyone. The real stars of the show were the desserts though. Honestly… divine.

Day 2 🚗

Day 2 was our Walt Disney Studios day.

The highlight for us was definitely the Cars area, especially Cars Road Trip with its little surprise in the middle of the ride.

In the evening, we headed to Annette’s Diner in Disney Village for tea.

It’s a proper 1950s-style American diner, complete with roller-skating waiters and classic diner food like burgers, hot dogs and sundaes. We finished with a fantastic cheesecake for dessert.

Day 3 👻

On our third day we headed back into Disneyland Park.

We decided to visit Mickey’s PhilharMagic, which is tucked away behind Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain. It was lovely watching all the little ones reaching out to catch the 3D effects flying towards them.

We then explored Frontierland, which had some brilliant Halloween decorations, including details inspired by the film Coco.

We also took a ride on Thunder Mesa Riverboats to give our weary feet a bit of a break.

That evening we ate at Chuck Wagon Café over at Hotel Cheyenne. The décor felt like the Wild West, with tables set under wagon-style canopies. The BBQ-style platters were great, and once again the desserts were amazing.

Day 4 🛍️

Our final day was all about repeating our grandson’s favourite attractions, including Lancelot’s Carousel, Mad Hatter’s Tea Cups, and the various Cars rides.

That still left us time for some souvenir shopping in Disney Village and one final dinner at The Steakhouse.

The Steakhouse had a gorgeous wood-panelled interior, full of old photos and atmosphere. It really felt like stepping back in time. I can highly recommend the steak, which was cooked perfectly.
