Budget For a Trip to Disneyland Paris (Our Study)

Do you want to visit Disneyland Paris and are wondering if you can? To properly visit the park, a 3-day stay is recommended.

In this article, I present several types of budgets for each aspect of your stay: accommodation, food, activities, and transport, over the course of three days.

3 days (2 nights) at Disneyland Paris: Estimated total cost per person

💡 Tip: You can sometimes benefit from preferential rates when you buy your tickets along with other activities (like a trip on the Seine).

Tickets

The prices of entrance tickets to Disneyland Paris vary significantly during the year.

For the 2023-2024 season, they vary from €52 for 1 day and 1 park visited (child) to €368 for 4 days and 2 parks visited (adult).

The price of the tickets is defined according to:

• Age (free for children under three; child rates apply from 3 to 11 years old; adult 12 years and over)
• Date of the visit
• Number of days of visit
• Accessible parks: Disneyland and/or Walt Disney Studio
• Pricing period

⚠️ Be careful though, to watch shows you need an additional ticket.

💡 My advice: Prepare your stay in advance. Before booking your tickets, check the pricing periods to get them at the lowest price.

Accommodation

Hotels

The Disneyland Paris Park has themed hotels. There are hotels on-site and nearby.

Here are some examples of these hotels and their average cost per night in high or low season for a double room:

⭐ Here are some hotels that I recommend:

• Disney’s Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel, newly renovated and makes you feel like you are staying in a New York City skyscraper.
• Disney’s Davy Crockett Ranch, independent bungalows, forest theme, heated and covered swimming pool, and all kinds of attractions.
• Elysée Val d’Europe Hotel, four stars, a quiet corner of nature after the hustle and bustle of the park.

Airbnbs

There are plenty of Airbnb accommodation options.

The price range is quite wide and starts at €50.

You have the choice between a hostel, a private room in an accommodation, or an entire accommodation close to the park (on foot or by bus).

Here are some options to explore:

• A small studio, ideal for two people, close to Disneyland (about 15 km from the park) €54/night
• An entire accommodation, which can accommodate up to 4 travelers and has a spa to relax your muscles at the end of the day, at the gates of the park, (about 13 km from the park) €199/night
• Private room in a villa, bus to get to the nearby park (about 9 km from the park) 75€/night

Food

Breakfast

For breakfast, I advise you to opt for a bakery (if breakfast is not included in your accommodation).

Pastries (€1-3) and coffee (€2) will be cheaper and just as nutritious as a breakfast in a hotel at €10 or more.

Lunch/Dinner

Disneyland Paris Park offers a variety of lunch and dinner options.

I’ve put together a list of places with their prices so you know in advance what to expect.

Restaurants

Fast-food

Snacks

In this table you will find examples of typical snacks served in the park and their prices.

Transportation

Car

If you come by car from Paris, you will drive about 40km (between 40 minutes and 1 hour and 30 minutes depending on traffic). Count about  €6 of gas round-trip.

That said, parking costs €30 for the day.

Train

For the train, you can take the RER A to its Marne-La-Vallée terminus which will cost you €7.60 for around 40 minutes.

My advice

• Book your tickets and accommodation in advance to make it cheaper.
• Buy your breakfast in a boulangerie.
• If you are going to Disneyland with a particular attraction in mind, check to see if it will be available before booking your tickets.
• Avoid high season; prefer mid-January to early March, or late August to late September.
• Weekday visits are cheaper than weekends.
• Enjoy “free” park activities. For example, even if you are not staying at Disney Animal Kingdom’s Lodge, you can still visit their zoos.
