If you want to know where to stay in this fun-packed place, you must scroll down to see where to stay in Anaheim, California, including the best neighborhoods.

Situated in the hills overlooking the city, Anaheim Hills is about a 20-minute drive east of Disneyland. Anaheim Hills is a ritzy - primarily residential - neighborhood in a peaceful environment.

Visit Yorba Regional Park for prime fishing or to stroll the scenic riverfront. Don’t forget to feed the ducks at the pond. If you’re into biking, check out Deer Canyon Park. Want to hit the fairway? Head to Anaheim Hills Golf Course for a vigorous 18-hole game. The eateries found in Anaheim Hills serve mainly hearty American fare, from juicy burgers to tantalizing barbecue.

About 5 miles (8 kilometers) south of Downtown Anaheim is The Anaheim Resort neighborhood. This section of the city enjoys a high profile because it is home to famed Disneyland and Disneyland Resort. The iconic theme park and resort looms large over this neighborhood.

A must-stop destination is Downtown Disney - a breezy outdoor boardwalk comprised of charming stores, delectable restaurants, and - of course - fanciful Disney boutique shops. Live music and lively street performers enhance the festive vibe.

Visitors shouldn’t overlook the lesser-known fine dining options as well as The Outlets at Orange for affordable clothing choices. For additional good times, head to Anaheim GardenWalk - just east of Disneyland Resort. This outdoor entertainment complex features great live music, bowling, and fun games.
