Sequoia Lodge – Disneyland Paris

Posted on August 1, 2012 by Steve

Disney’s Sequoia Lodge is a popular 3* Disney Hotel. The property is a 10 minute walk to the parks and offers a free shuttle service although in my opinion by the time you wait for the shuttle and drive round you could already be at the parks if you walked. This property has a Great American Outdoors feel as the property is surrounded treetops.

Disney’s Sequoia Lodge has a total of 1011 rooms including 14 suites, 1 main building with 750 rooms and 5 lodges with 261 rooms. Some of the rooms offer a Lakeside view (at an extra charge). Eating at the Sequoia could not be easier with 2 restaurants: Hunters Grill- 360 seat Buffet restaurant and the Beaver Creek Tavern- 340seat table restaurant.

Other than the restaurants the hotel offers a bar and lounge area with a nice big open fireplace. For the children the hotel offers an indoor and outdoor pool with a waterslide aswell as Childrens corners and a arcade.

More for the adults is the Whirlpool, Sauna, fitness room and Solarium.
