Fairfield Inn & Suites Anaheim North Buena Park
A mile from the gates with park access bundled in
About this hotel
Fairfield Inn & Suites Anaheim North Buena Park sits about a mile from Knott's Berry Farm and Soak City, one of the closer distances among Buena Park properties, with Disneyland Theme Park and California Adventure Park roughly six miles further out. Rooms keep things straightforward: a flat-screen TV, microwave, fridge and coffee maker, decorated in bold colours with a work desk and seating area rather than a generic beige palette. The outdoor pool and free Wi-Fi round out the shared amenities, and free access to the fitness room adds a wellness option before a full day standing in Soak City slide lines. For a family prioritising proximity to the gates over suite-level kitchen space, the roughly mile-long distance does most of the practical work here.
- Close to the gates
- Outdoor pool
- Free fitness room
- Free Wi-Fi
Our take
Fairfield Inn & Suites suits families who want to be about a mile from Knott's Berry Farm and Soak City rather than commuting from further along the Anaheim corridor. The straightforward room package covers the basics without competing on kitchen space or full-service dining. Families wanting a heated pool or suite kitchen for a longer stay should compare against Hotel Pepper Tree or Hyatt House Cypress/Anaheim instead.
- ✓Confirm current park-access terms directly with the property, since packaging details can shift and should never be assumed from an amenity tag alone.
- ✓Use the free fitness room before an early Soak City start, since a workout beforehand beats squeezing one in after a slides-filled day.
- ✓Budget the six-mile drive to Disneyland or California Adventure Park into the schedule if the trip covers both parks.
Why we love it
- About a mile from Knott's Berry Farm and Soak City

Why guests love itA family picking Fairfield Inn & Suites mainly for the walk to the gates finds the mile-long stretch to Knott's Berry Farm makes mornings noticeably easier than a hotel further out near Disneyland. The flat-screen-and-sofa room keeps kids settled during a midday break, and the six-mile drive out to California Adventure Park the next day still feels manageable from this same base.
