My sister and I are running the Tinker Bell half in 2 weeks! We are staying at the Best Western Stovalls. It's just across the street from Paradise Pier on Katella. So we will be very close to the race start and finish. They average around $100ish/night. It includes breakfast but has an $8/day parking fee. I've stayed at the Best Western Pavilions, just a few hotels down. It's averaged around $75/night for our trips. There is no breakfast and has a $5/night resort fee. They are both close for walking to the race. But remember, if you stay farther, you do get free transportation on the ART for the weekend. But you may have to wait a bit for it, and I'm sure they will be pretty full with the increased crowds. My sister stays at the BW Stovalls every time they go to DL, and that's usually a couple times a year. My hubby and I have stayed at the BW Pavilions that last couple times we've gone. Both have been remodeled in the last couple years and have been clean every time we've gone. Sometimes you can get a good deal on the hotels site directly, they usually have a 21 day advance purchase rate. And as long as you book more than 21 days out, you save a descent amount of money, as long as there aren't any blackout dates. I have used expedia and the taxes are lower on there. I can usually get a rate around the cost of the 21 day advance purchase. If you book with expedia, you do have to pay the parking or resort fee when you check in the hotel. If you book on the hotel site, I believe they add that to your total so you don't have to pay anything else when you check in. I hope this helps! Happy racing!!
