Any Disneyland Paris hotels that you can view fireworks from the room

Considering taking my two in October. Never been and no experience of this kind of thing!

My two desperately need 12 hours sleep so staying up late for the fireworks sadly isn’t an option, as will spoil following day. So I thought view from room might work (I could wake them up!).

Any idea what hotel and room would have a view of the fireworks?

Some Sequoia Lodge Golden Forest rooms have a partial view of the fireworks. The only rooms you can guarantee it from are park view rooms at the Disneyland Paris hotel but these are really pricey.

In October the fireworks are at 8pm so you might not need such a late night as you would in the summer. We were there in October last year and there were quite a few kids watching in their pj's so that they could go straight to bed afterwards.

Could they not have a lie in the next day? It's not just fireworks, there is a show projected onto the castle with music. It's amazing! You don't get any of that just watching from a hotel. For the price of a room in the Disneyland hotel you could have more time in a cheaper hotel so it wouldnt matter if ypu had a lie in the nezt day. We stayed at the Santa fe in February for 4 nightstand loved it.

If at 8, that’s ok
10pm start - no chance!

I totally get it. Mine would be on their knees.

With regard to a hotel, it really depends what you are looking for. All the hotels are walkable from the park so it's really down to what theme you would like and how much you want to spend. For me, the Sequoia is the best in the Autumn/Winter months and it's only a 15 min walk (round the lake) to the park.

2 nights should be plenty of time. If you get the direct Eurostar, you get in around 1:30 and then you can get the last train on your third day. I think ours was around 18:00 last year. If you get a direct train, you won't need a car at all as the station is in the resort.
If you book at the moment, you get a night free so that might be worth exploring. Look at Eurostar dates first though as the direct trains don't run everyday. We're going in November and we had to get three nights as the Eurostar dates didn't facilitate a two night stay. Not that I was complaining at a free night 😂

Depending on your budget, the club level rooms might be a good bet as they include free afternoon tea which would break up the day nicely for the kids. They also include breakfast which is not included in the price for normal rooms.
