e) The Most Family Friendly Hotel

Unlike the previous categories, where their can only be one Hotel to fit the description, it is harder to choose just one for this category. On this occasion I have chosen two- The Hollywood Hotel and Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel. The first is a Hollywood themed Hotel, with classic cars, Disney characters and pools. The Disneyland Hotel offers a Mickey Maze and 'activities. For more information see the website:-  http://park.hongkongdisneyland.com/hkdl/en_US/hotels/landing?name=HollywoodHotelLandingPage
