the area surrounding Disneyland is - to put it bluntly - not nice and not particularly safe. But, here are some places to stay on property and within the resort district area that are nice!

This is one of 3 Disney owned resorts that are on Disneyland property - this is the top tier hotel
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa
The Disneyland Hotel recently opened up a brand new tower exclusively for Disney Vacation Club! We stayed there opening weekend and loved it!
Disney Vacation Club Villas At Disneyland Hotel Deluxe Studio Review
The best theme in my opinion and it's home to Trader Sam's Tiki Bar!
Disneyland Hotel
This is the most affordable Disneyland hotel. It was recently renovated from “Paradise Pier” to match the newer “Pixar Pier” theme in California Adventure
Pixar Place Hotel
This hotel is within walking distance to Disneyland and you get the extra space that regular hotel rooms don't have. I've stayed here once and loved it.
DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Hotel Anaheim Resort - Convention Center
This one is huge, directly across the street from Disneyland, and is a great choice for anything at the convention center.
Hilton Anaheim
a very popular place for Disneyland guests and also right across the street. Close to lots of dining too.
Grand Legacy at the Park
if you're looking for a budget hotel, this motel style place is a popular one that's been around forever!
Castle Inn & Suites
This place has been here forever and is a great budget option literally on the backside of California Adventure
Candy Cane Inn
I stayed here years ago before it was owned by Wyndham. A close walk to Disneyland and close to food.
Wyndham Anaheim | Anaheim, CA Hotels
one of the more luxurious hotels that is not on Disneyland property, but it is right across the street.
Hyatt House Anaheim | Book Your Stay Near Anaheim Convention Center
if you're looking for luxury, this is your best option
Luxury Hotel Anaheim | JW Marriott, Anaheim Resort
I stayed here the first night that I moved to California before I was able to move into my new apartment.
Anaheim Portofino Inn & Suites
I used to work at this property - there's a newer homewood that's closer to disneyland, but this is still walking distance and there's a shuttle
Homewood Suites Anaheim-Main Gate Hotel in Garden Grove
When I worked for Hilton, I filled in at the front desk here once and I've stayed as a guest. It's within walking distance and close to good food.
Hilton Garden Inn Anaheim Hotel in Garden Grove
When I worked for Hilton, I filled in at the front desk here a handful of times, it's on a lot with 3 different Hilton branded hotels and close to Disneyland
Hampton Inn & Suites Anaheim Garden Grove
I've been through here to eat at Fleming's and it's a beautiful new resort
