And the good news is that there are plenty of hotels and motels to chose from in Orange!

Howard Johnson

This is a two-star hotel hotel, but it’s still quite nice, and it’s considerably smaller and cheaper than the Doubletree. There are only about 40 rooms and room rates start closer to $65 dollars for two people. Located right off of the 55 freeway, it’s easy to get to, although a few miles further from Disneyland and the airport than some of the other hotels in the area. They have an Olympic-sized outdoor pool, in-room spas and offer a free continental breakfast and a free newspaper in the morning.
