"My husband and I stayed at this hotel for a quick weekend getaway. The customer service was excellent. Check in went smoothly and our room was upgraded to a larger suite. The valet attendants were hustling to ensure clients did not have to wait for their vehicles. The property was exceptionally clean. Both evenings, someone arrived to provide turndown service, bottle water (sparkling as well), and to offer any additional services. All staff were exceptionally pleasant and friendly. This was our...

LEGOLAND California Hotel

LEGOLAND California Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The Castle Legoland Hotel was truly amazing. My kids and my husband had a wonderful time, and the whole experience felt magical. The room was clean and exactly what I expected.The only thing I didn’t fully agree with was the check‑in and check‑out times. Checking in at 4 PM and checking out at 11 AM gives you less than 24 hours to enjoy the room.Aside from that, the breakfast was incredible, and being able to walk to the park in less than three minutes .Overall, my experience was phenomenal, and I would happily return."
