Few questions (sorry) when is the cheapest time to go?

[Guest]

Hi this is my first time posting so not sure if am in the right place...

When is the cheapest time to go to Disneyland Paris? I dont want to go in the school hols when its packed.

What is the best way to get there with a 3 year old and a baby under 9 months (shes six weeks at the moment not sure how old she will be when we go) i was maybe thinking eurostart as it might be a little cheaper.

Whats the best way to book? we want to stay in the main disney hotel.

We are maybe thinking of going for 4 or 5 days to make sure we get everything in and maybe visit paris itself.

It doesnt matter when we go. Thanks for any help

If you can go in term time during the week, do so. It's much quieter and often cheaper.

By 'the main disney hotel' do you mean the Disneyland hotel? If so it will cost you a bomb!

DLP has different hotels at different prices. We just stayed at the Cheyenne which has rooms with double beds and bunk beds. It's 10 minutes' walk from the parks or there's a free shuttle bus.

The Santa Fe is cheaper again, but I've not stayed there so can't comment.

We always go Eurostar. Book on their website a few months ahead as prices go up nearer the time. Depending on where you are, it may be cheaper to drive or fly, but remember you have to get from the airport to DLP and back. If you get a direct Eurostar (they don't run every day) it takes you right to the park entrance in two and a half hours.

Weather is similar to the UK but a little more extreme - they're a bit colder in the winter and a bit hotter in the summer.

If you look on the DLP website and put some dates in the calendar, it should show you cheaper/more expensive times to book - they'll be coded in different colours.

Look out for offers. We just went with 40% discount and children under 12 free, and it cost £1500 for 8 of us including Eurostar.

Children under 3 are free for a lot of things. The youngest child in our party was actually 3, but was allowed to count as 'under 3' for meals and not pay for food at buffets.

we went at the beginning of october during the week and stayed at hotel new york for 4 nights on a 40% offer. we looked at several offer hotel/date combination and this was by far the most value for money.

Hi as others have said any term time mid week is fine, we always drive and use the Euro tunnel but we do have the advantage of living in Kent. It is really easy to drive especailly with all the things you need to take for children. Once you are there park the car at the hotel and you can walk everywhere. It takes about 3 hours from Cailas and the toll road is 20euros each way
