How Tall Are the Beds in Accessible Rooms at Disney’s Sequoia Lodge?
The beds in the accessible rooms at Disney’s Sequoia Lodge are standard hotel beds with a height designed to accommodate a wide range of guests, including wheelchair users and those who use mobility aids. While bed height is not customisable, it generally allows for safe transfers and potential use of hoists, depending on individual equipment requirements.
Bed Height Information
- Typical bed height: Approximately 50–55 cm (measured from floor to top of mattress)
- This height falls within the common accessible range for manual and powered wheelchair transfers
- Bed legs are fixed, and the height is not adjustable without specialist equipment
Under-Bed Clearance
- Most accessible rooms have beds with open space underneath to allow for portable hoist use
- Estimated clearance: 13–18 cm beneath the bed (varies slightly by room)
- There is no fixed mechanical lifting system provided by default
- Profiling or medical beds are not standard but may be arranged in advance via the Disneyland Paris Accessibility Team (subject to availability and medical approval)
Transfer Considerations
Guests using transfer boards, slide sheets, or mobile hoists should consider the following:
- One side of the bed is left clear to allow for lateral transfer from a wheelchair
- Removable bedside tables can be moved by housekeeping upon request to create more space
- If a guest requires additional clearance or a lower/higher bed height, it is essential to communicate this in advance
Bed Configuration
Accessible rooms at Sequoia Lodge may include:
- Two twin beds (each with side access)
- One double or king-sized bed (with transfer space on at least one side)
Bed configuration varies based on the room type booked and should be specified during the reservation process if preferences exist.
Mattress & Comfort
- Medium-firm mattresses are standard across all rooms
- Mattress height is included in the overall 50–55 cm bed height
- Extra bedding, mattress toppers, or support pillows can be requested from housekeeping to improve comfort or adjust minor height concerns
Booking Recommendations
If specific bed height, under-bed clearance, or medical bed compatibility is essential to your needs, we recommend:
- Notifying your travel agent or the Disneyland Paris booking team at the time of reservation
- Contacting the Disneyland Paris Accessibility Team at least two weeks before arrival to confirm the measurements and make special arrangements if needed
- Bringing measurements for your own hoist or transfer equipment to cross-check with the room specifications
