Yes, Disney Sequoia Lodge is a good choice at Disneyland Paris, and we rate it 4 out of 5 after five stays. It's the cheapest on-site hotel with a pool, cosy and well themed, though the rooms are showing their age while a phased refurbishment works through the hotel, starting with the five outer lodges. This Disney Sequoia Lodge review covers the rooms with our own photos, prices, the pool, air conditioning and whether it's worth booking.

Since France reopened its borders after the pandemic, we've stayed at Disney Sequoia Lodge five times in the standard rooms, once in Yosemite Lodge and the rest in the main building. Our sixth stay was in Golden Forest Club, which has its own Golden Forest Club review.
About Disney Sequoia Lodge
Disney Sequoia Lodge opened on 12th April 1992 with the rest of what was then Euro Disney, and was designed by French architect Antoine Grumbach. It's one of two 3-star Disney hotels at Disneyland Paris, along with Disney Hotel Cheyenne. Disney grades its hotels on its own scale, so a Disney 3-star is more about theming and facilities than what you'd expect from a 3-star hotel back home. The theme is the great American National Parks, with wooden lodges, views over Lake Disney and enough Bambi touches that you half expect a deer to wander through reception. The address is Avenue Robert Schuman, 77700 Coupvray.
There are 1,009 rooms in total, split between the main building and five smaller lodges set among the trees behind it, named Yellowstone, Yosemite, Sierra, Monterey and Big Sur. The Quarry Pool has a building of its own. Of the 1,009 rooms, 889 are Classic Rooms sold in three booking categories, and the other 120 are Golden Forest Club rooms, which we cover in our Golden Forest Club review.
| Room Type | Size | Sleeps | Beds | Accessible Rooms |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Classic Room | 27m² (290 sq ft) | Up to 4 | 2 double beds | 8 of 286 |
| Classic Room Near Hotel Facilities | 27m² (290 sq ft) | Up to 4 with 2 double beds, up to 2 with 1 double bed | 1 double bed or 2 double beds | 10 of 553 |
| Classic Room Near Hotel Facilities, Lake Side | 27m² (290 sq ft) | Up to 4 | 1 double bed or 2 double beds | 1 of 50 |
Figures from Disney's own room allocation data, correct on our last update.
The Classic Room category puts you in one of the five outer lodges, while Classic Room Near Hotel Facilities is the main building, and we've stayed in both. The Lake Side rooms are in the main building too, on the side facing the lake instead of the car park.
Check-in is from 3pm and check-out is by 11am, the same as every Disneyland Paris hotel. Parking is free, with EV charging points in the car park, which helps if you're driving down from Calais or picking up a hire car at the airport. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel.
Inside, you'll find a fitness centre, the Northwest Passage shop, the Little Prairie Kids Corner, the Redwood Bar and two restaurants. There's no Starbucks here, while Disney Hotel Cheyenne and Disney Hotel Santa Fe both have one. What Sequoia Lodge does have is a pool, which Cheyenne and Santa Fe don't, making it the cheapest on-site Disney hotel where you can go for a swim. Characters meet guests near the shop on select mornings, and the line-up varies, with Donald Duck and Max among the ones we've seen. Staying here also gets you Extra Magic Time, Disney's name for early entry to the parks, up to an hour before the general public.
Where Is Disney Sequoia Lodge?
Disney puts Sequoia Lodge at a 15-minute walk from the parks, the same as Disney Newport Bay Club. Only Disney Hotel New York - The Art of Marvel, at 10 minutes, and the Disneyland Hotel, at the entrance to Disneyland Park, are closer. Hotel New York is 4-star and the Disneyland Hotel is 5-star, so being nearer the gates generally costs more. If you'd rather not walk, the free shuttle bus gets you there in a few minutes, which helps on a wet day.
The walk is flat the whole way. Leave from the back of the hotel, head down towards the lake and follow the path to the right over a small bridge, then turn left and carry straight on. That takes you past Hotel New York - The Art of Marvel and through the security check everyone goes through before Disney Village, and from there you walk through the Village to the park gates.
Disney lists Cheyenne and Santa Fe at 20 minutes, only five more than Sequoia Lodge, but on the way back after a long day they feel much further. You pass the turning for Sequoia Lodge and there's still a long road ahead of you, and that last stretch drags. If distance is high on your list, compare Sequoia Lodge with the other hotels on the Disneyland Paris price calendar to see what being closer costs on your dates.
How Much Does Disney Sequoia Lodge Cost?
Disney Sequoia Lodge is usually booked as a hotel and ticket package through DisneylandParis.com or Disney Holidays, with park tickets for every day of your stay, check-in and check-out days included. For 2 adults on a 1-night stay with 2-day park tickets, prices run from around £484 to £832, or £242 to £416 per person.
The same stay at Disney Hotel Cheyenne runs from around £447 to £794. Cheyenne is cheaper on many dates, but on some Sequoia Lodge comes out cheaper, so check both for your own dates on the Disneyland Paris price estimate calendar.
| Hotel | Cheapest Night | Dearest Night |
|---|---|---|
| Disney Sequoia Lodge | £484 (£242 per person) | £832 (£416 per person) |
| Disney Hotel Cheyenne | £447 (£223.50 per person) | £794 (£397 per person) |
2 adults, 1 night, 2-day park tickets included. Prices checked on 11th October 2026, and each hotel's cheapest and dearest nights may fall on different dates.
Disneyland Paris uses dynamic pricing, so prices can climb as dates fill up, and the lowest prices go to people who book early.
Prices on the Disneyland Paris site are usually shown per person, with the full total for everyone in the room shown before you pay. Each guest's park tickets are part of the package, so adding a third or fourth person adds to the total instead of splitting the room cost between more people. Prices move often, so check the Disneyland Paris Price Estimate Calendar for your own dates, then book your Sequoia Lodge package with Disney Holidays once you've found dates that work.
You can book any of the three Classic Room categories. The 1 double bed and 2 double bed layouts cost the same, so pick whichever suits your group. The price gap is between the categories, and you can expect to pay somewhere between £20 and £50 a night more to move from a Classic Room in the lodges up to a lake-facing room in the main building.
The new Renovated Classic Rooms in the lodges cost a little more again. On a 3-night stay for 2 guests, we found them £11.43 more per person per night than a standard Classic Room, which is about £23 a night for the room. The full breakdown is in the refurbishment section further down.
Lake Side rooms face the water instead of the car park, though there are plenty of trees between you and the lake, so the view varies from one window to the next.
If you want reception and the restaurants on your doorstep, book Classic Room Near Hotel Facilities in the main building. The lodges are cheaper and feel more like a National Park, with trees around you in place of car parks, but you'll walk further to the main building.
If you're weighing up the Golden Forest Club upgrade, the premium on our stay worked out at around £120 a night for 2 adults, rising to closer to £200 a night at peak times. Before you pick a room type, compare live prices with Disney Holidays here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Golden Forest Club Rooms
Golden Forest Club is Sequoia Lodge's club level. It costs more than a Classic Room and adds a private reception, all-you-can-eat breakfast in a private lounge, snacks and non-alcoholic drinks through the day, and a turndown service. The rooms are almost identical to the Classic Rooms but come with a fridge, and there are suites as well. Every other club level at Disneyland Paris is at a 4-star or 5-star hotel, which makes Golden Forest Club the cheapest way into club level.
Golden Forest Club was our sixth stay at Sequoia Lodge, and we cover it in full in our Disney Sequoia Lodge Golden Forest Club Level Review. If the perks appeal, compare prices for both room types on the Disneyland Paris price calendar here.
Checking In To Disney Sequoia Lodge
The first time you walk into the lobby, there's a security check where your luggage goes through a scanner. Once you're through, you get the first hit of the smell Sequoia Lodge is known for. We still can't work out what's in it, but it's lovely. The floor tiles on the way to reception are uneven in places, so hold on to your suitcase instead of letting it roll. A sign asks for one person from each party, ideally whoever made the booking, to go up to the desk, so everyone else can wait on the sofas in the lobby.
We usually book the earliest flight we can to get the most out of the parks, so we tend to reach the hotel before midday. Check-in officially starts at 3pm, and our room usually hasn't been ready that early, though once or twice it has. You can still check in whenever you arrive. You'll be given a hotel map and your Magic Passes, which work as both your room key and your park ticket.
If your room isn't ready, go back outside and look to the right for the free luggage storage. Tell the cast members you're checking in and how many bags you have, and they'll hand you a ticket so you can head off to the parks. You'll get a text when the room is ready, then collect your bags on the way up. Check-in has always gone smoothly for us and the cast members have been friendly, though the desk gets busier just after a Magical Shuttle coach, Disney's official airport transfer, has pulled in. Checking in on the Disneyland Paris app before you arrive cuts down the time at the desk.
What Are The Disney Sequoia Lodge Rooms Like?
We've stayed in a Classic Room in Yosemite Lodge once and in the main building on our other standard stays. The rooms are the same in both, and while the main building costs a little more, it's the one we pick when the price gap is small. Every room we've had was clean and cosy, in okay condition and more spacious than it looks in photos. Bambi theming runs along the tops of the walls, with Bambi artwork here and there, and housekeeping came every day, so we always came back to a made bed and a tidy room.

Everything above except the highchairs, changing tables and kids' menu is available on request and subject to availability, so ask reception as early as you can if you need any of it.
The room is cosy, if a little old-fashioned, and has most of what you need for a comfortable stay. Our main gripe is the shortage of plug sockets, and the ones there are awkward to reach, so pack an extension lead. Sockets are the EU two-pin type, so bring an adaptor from the UK unless you only need the wireless charging brick Disneyland Paris has added to the rooms, which charges one phone and has a plug and USB slots on the side. Standard rooms have no fridge and no iron, though reception will bring an iron up if you ask. The TV is slow with a thin choice of channels, and there's no self-service laundry at Sequoia Lodge, though Disney hotel guests can use the one at Hotel Cheyenne.
Just outside the bathroom there's a sink and vanity area with a hairdryer, a weak one, plus wardrobe space, shelving and the room safe. A kettle and coffee machine now come as standard, replacing the old communal coffee machines, but there's no way to make a hot chocolate, so bring your own sachets if you want one.
The bathroom is functional. Shampoo and conditioner come in bottles, body wash is in a wall-mounted pump and towels are provided.
If the rooms look right for you, check current availability and prices for Disney Sequoia Lodge here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge King Rooms
Disney doesn't use the word king anywhere in its booking system. What we call a king room is listed as "1 double bed" when you're booking, against "2 double beds" for the standard layout, but the bed in these rooms is king-size. Look for the 1 double bed option when you book, as searching for a king room on the Disneyland Paris site won't bring it up.
These rooms sleep up to 2, while the 2 double bed layout sleeps up to 4, so they won't work if you need the extra beds. There aren't many of them, so it can take some searching to find one for your dates.
For a couple, we'd book a king room over the 2 double bed layout. Many are corner or end rooms with a slightly different shape, and with one bed instead of two they feel noticeably bigger, with a sofa where the second bed would be. Some have a balcony, though not all, so request one if it's available for your dates. The room in our photos below is on the corner you walk past on the way to the parks.
A king room with a balcony makes for a nicer stay again, and the rest of the room is the same as the others.
With so few king rooms to go round, check what's available at Disney Sequoia Lodge for your dates as early as you can.
Does Disney Sequoia Lodge Have Air Conditioning?
Yes, every room at Disney Sequoia Lodge has air conditioning, but there's no ceiling fan, which Hotel Cheyenne's rooms do have. On our summer stays the air con has only taken the edge off the heat, and on a warm July afternoon you'll still want the windows open for a breeze. We've called reception to ask them to lower the setting and check it was working, and they confirmed it was. Guests report the same at other Disneyland Paris hotels, so it isn't down to one bad room.
One possible reason is a French rule from 2007, under Décret n° 2007-363, which says air conditioning in buildings should only run once the indoor temperature goes above 26°C. When it came in, the French government called it a recommendation, with no penalty for ignoring it. We're not sure whether Disney follows it at Sequoia Lodge or is keeping its energy bills down, as Disney hasn't said, but either would explain air con that cools the room only a little. You can read the decree on France's official legal database, Légifrance.
Set your expectations if you're visiting in peak summer. The heating in winter is good, so the rooms are warm and cosy at Christmas and through the quieter months between January and March.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Restaurants
Disney Sequoia Lodge has two restaurants. Hunter's Grill is the dinner buffet, costing around €45 (about £39) for adults and €25 (about £21) for children, and it's included if you've added a Disneyland Paris meal plan to your booking. The spread covers duck, venison, salmon and chicken alongside cold cuts, soups and salads, with a raclette station and a good range of desserts. We often eat at Hunter's Grill even when we're staying elsewhere, as the quality is good and it's one of the better buffets at Disneyland Paris. The menu changes fairly often, so check the latest on Disneyland Paris's official Hunter's Grill menu. You can book a table on the Disneyland Paris app, or walk in.
Beaver Creek Tavern, opposite, is mainly used for breakfast, served from 7am to 11am, with pastries, bacon, eggs and sausages, waffles and pancakes, cereals, juices and coffee. Without a meal plan, breakfast costs around €25 (about £21) a head.
Sterling figures are approximate, based on around 86p to the euro.
A meal plan can work out cheaper than paying for two buffets a day, so run the numbers before you book and compare Disneyland Paris package options here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Redwood Bar And Lounge
The Redwood Bar and Lounge is the best part of the hotel, and we end up there most nights of our stays. The chairs have low backs and get uncomfortable after a while, so if it's quiet, grab one of the sofas by the open fire. It's our favourite place to sit down anywhere at Disneyland Paris, with friendly service and a long drinks list covering beer, cocktails and soft drinks, plus a few snacks. You can see the full list on Disneyland Paris's official Redwood Bar and Lounge menu. It's walk-up only, so there's no need to book.
Please note the Redwood Bar closes for refurbishment from 19th February 2027, along with the Northwest Passage shop. While they're closed, drinks, snacks and a small range of souvenirs are sold from a retail point in the lobby, and the restaurants stay open.
If an evening by that fire is part of your plan, find your dates on the Disneyland Paris price calendar here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Pool
The Quarry Pool sits in its own building behind the main lodge, with indoor and outdoor sections joined by doors that open up in the warmer months, plus a small waterslide and a whirlpool. Sequoia Lodge is the cheapest on-site Disney hotel with a pool, as Hotel Cheyenne and Hotel Santa Fe don't have one. Disney Davy Crockett Ranch is a Disney hotel with a pool too, but it isn't on-site like the others, as you have to drive there and there's no free shuttle bus.
If a pool matters for your trip, see what's available at Disney Sequoia Lodge here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Theming And Atmosphere
Sequoia Lodge has the same feel as Disney's Wilderness Lodge at Walt Disney World, on a smaller and more intimate scale. It's warm and cosy, and while the layout takes a little while to learn, it's a calm place to come back to after a day in the parks.
Our Top Tips For Staying At Disney Sequoia Lodge
- Check in on the Disneyland Paris app before you arrive, so there's less to do at the desk.
- Get to breakfast for 7am if you want a quiet sitting before Beaver Creek Tavern fills up.
- Pack EU plug adaptors and an extension lead.
- Catch the character meet and greets near the shop in the morning, where we've met Donald Duck and Max.
- Head to the Redwood Bar early in the evening if you want a sofa by the fire, and remember it's closed from 19th February 2027.
- Check the Disneyland Paris Price Estimate Calendar before you book, as the gap between a Classic Room and Golden Forest Club changes a lot from date to date.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Refurbishment And New Rooms
The Sequoia Lodge refurbishment started in January 2026, and the hotel stays open throughout. The first phase covers the rooms in the five outer lodges, with new interiors inspired by Bambi, Pocahontas and Brave. Those renovated rooms can be booked for stays from 19th February 2027, listed as "Renovated Classic Room" in the Disneyland Paris booking system.
Rooms in the main building aren't part of this phase, and Disney hasn't confirmed when they'll be done. From 19th February 2027, the Redwood Bar and Northwest Passage shop also close for refurbishment, while the restaurants and the hotel's other main services stay open and Disney Characters keep appearing at set times.
On a 3-night stay for 2 guests, we found a Renovated Classic Room cost £192.31 per person per night, against £180.88 for a standard Classic Room. That's £11.43 more per person per night, which is about £23 a night for the room, or £68.56 across the 3 nights. The full breakdown, with booking screenshots, is in our Sequoia Lodge renovated rooms booking news, and our original refurbishment news story has the background. We'll update this review once we've stayed in one of the new rooms.
To book a renovated room, search for stays from 19th February 2027 and look for the Renovated Classic Room label. Check renovated room availability at Disney Sequoia Lodge here.
Disney Sequoia Lodge Vs Disney Hotel Cheyenne
Sequoia Lodge and Hotel Cheyenne are the two 3-star Disney hotels at Disneyland Paris, and with prices close together on many dates, a lot of people end up choosing between them.
| Feature | Disney Sequoia Lodge | Disney Hotel Cheyenne |
|---|---|---|
| Theme | American National Parks with Bambi touches | Wild West with Toy Story rooms |
| Price (2 adults, 1 night, 2-day tickets) | From around £484 to £832 | From around £447 to £794 |
| Walk to the parks (Disney's figure) | 15 minutes | 20 minutes |
| Swimming pool | Yes | No |
| Starbucks | No | Yes |
| Self-service laundry | No, but guests can use Cheyenne's | Yes |
| Club-level rooms | Yes, Golden Forest Club | No |
| Character meets | Select mornings near the shop, characters vary | Woody or Jessie every morning |
| Refurbishment | Renovated lodge rooms first, the rest of the hotel to follow | Rooms re-themed to Toy Story in 2017 |
| Best suited for | Couples and families who want a pool and a quieter, lodge-style stay | Young Toy Story fans, and anyone who wants Starbucks and a laundry on site |
Prices checked on 11th October 2026. Check the details for your own dates before booking.
If one theme suits you more than the other, that usually settles it. Our Sequoia Lodge evenings have mostly been spent by the fire in the Redwood Bar, while Cheyenne's daily Woody and Jessie meets make it the easier choice for young Toy Story fans. Our Disney Hotel Cheyenne review covers that hotel in the same detail. Whichever you lean towards, compare live prices for both on the Disneyland Paris price calendar here.
Is Disney Sequoia Lodge Any Good?
Yes. Disney Sequoia Lodge is a cosy, well-themed 3-star at a fair price for an on-site hotel, and the cheapest on-site hotel where you can swim. The weak points are the shortage of plug sockets and the lack of a fridge in standard rooms, and the air conditioning only takes the edge off on hot days. The rooms are showing their age, which is why the refurbishment is happening, and we'll be back to try the new rooms once they open. For now, we'd pick Sequoia Lodge over Cheyenne when the price gap is small and Toy Story isn't a draw, and we'd go the other way if a Starbucks or a laundry on site matters more to you.
If Sequoia Lodge sounds right for your trip, search Disneyland Paris hotel & ticket packages or check availability and book through Disney Holidays with transport included here.
How To Book Disney Sequoia Lodge
To book a hotel and ticket package from the UK, go through DisneylandParis.com. For a package with transport included, book through Disney Holidays instead, which can add flights, P&O Ferries, LeShuttle or Eurostar. Eurostar runs from London St Pancras to Lille Europe, where you change onto a TGV to Marne-la-Vallée-Chessy, the station by the park entrance.
Disney Holidays packages fly from the London airports as well as Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Belfast International, so you don't have to travel down to London first. If you'd rather sort flights yourself, compare flight prices into Paris Charles de Gaulle or Orly before you commit, as booking separately is sometimes cheaper than the package and sometimes isn't. From the airport, Disney's official Magical Shuttle coach runs to the Disney hotels.
Room-only stays cannot be booked through Disney Holidays or DisneylandParis.com, but can be through sites like Hotels.com. If you need park tickets, as most people do, a hotel and ticket package works out cheaper than booking the room and buying tickets separately, as Disney builds a small ticket discount into its packages. Room-only makes sense when you don't need tickets at all, say if you already hold a Disneyland Paris annual pass, which gives you a set number of visits across the year rather than a one-off ticket.
If you need tickets with your room, compare hotel and ticket packages direct with Disney here.
