We have another hotel recommendation for you! We recently stayed at the Viv, previously Blu Raddison and we loved it! We have stayed at the Blu Raddison before, but recently they have had rebranded and are now a Marriott Tribute Property. It is the same beautiful, one stop resort but with more perks and benefits. There are so many reasons why we loved staying there and why we think its a great fit for your family!
The design is stunning. It’s airy, clean and modern. It gives a fun modern spin on classic Disney with interesting modern art sprinkled throughout the hotel. The rooms are so bright and well lit. The light colors in the room create this beautiful airy space that you will love. We were really in awe over how fancy the hotel felt but still kept a Disney vibe without being hokey or cheesy.
Let’s talk proximity. The Viv is a prime Anaheim location. It is located in the heart of Anaheim, and is a central location to many attractions like Disneyland, The Anaheim Convention center, Angel Stadium and Honda Center. Is it walkable to Disney? Definitely, but it may be a 15-20 minute walk. This is definitely doable, but may be a long stretch with young kids.
We love that this hotel accommodates both families and single travelers alike. They have two different pools, one for families and one for adults, to accomodate the needs of their guests. They also have two different restaurants. We were able to dine at both, one for dinner and one for breakfast. The hotel itself does not have a continental breakfast, but The Valencia has great breakfast options.
We absolutely loved the Top of the V restaurant. This is a rooftop restaurant that is so beautiful. The outdoor patio area is a perfect place to watch Disney fireworks. It is so lush, green and comfortable. It is a perfect place to sit, relax and grab a drink. The Top of the V restaurant has a spanish inspired menu. We ordered so many different things to try and loved them all! We also tried some of their mocktails and they were delicious. The restaurant is upscale and elegant but has a fun latin flair. IT was absolutely delicious!
We would absolutely recommend The Viv if you are planning on coming on a Disney trip or visiting the Anaheim area. This is a hotel accommodating to many different guests and I guarantee you will love it as much as we did!
