Disneyland Paris has reopened the new royal-themed Disneyland Hotel following a two-year refurbishment.
The hotel’s upgrades are part of the ongoing transformation of the Disneyland Paris resort and come after the launch of Disney Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel in 2021.
“Disneyland Hotel further extends our legacy as a leader in the European tourism industry, with an exceptional capacity to welcome families in highly immersive environments and stories like only Disney can,” said Natacha Rafalski, présidente of Disneyland Paris.
“This one-of-a-kind, five-star property at the center of Disneyland Paris is yet another glimpse into our ambitious resort-wide transformation.”
First opened in 1992, the Disneyland Hotel now features a new concept inspired by Disney’s royal characters from films such as Cinderella, Frozen, The Sword in the Stone, Moana and The Princess and the Frog.
The updated hotel includes a regal-themed lobby and dining facilities. All 487 rooms and suites have been redesigned, too.
Additionally, a team of cast members will provide the royal treatment. These include a ‘Royal Greeter’ and ‘Story Keepers’ to walk guests through the hotel’s hidden gems.
Disneyland Paris collaborated with Walt Disney Imagineering and Walt Disney Animation Studios to redesign the Disneyland Hotel. It also worked with more than 200 French and European companies.
Disneyland Paris’ ongoing transformation
Earlier this month, Disneyland Paris launched its new Symphony of Colours programme, which includes the Electrical Sky Parade. This nighttime experience uses synchronised drones, lasers, video projections, lights and fountains.
The production was created alongside Dronisos, Disneyland Paris’ official technology supplier and European leader in drone shows.
Disneyland Paris debuted back in April 1992 and has grown to become Europe’s tourist destination with more than 375 million visits since opening.
Today, it is home to two theme parks, seven themed Disney hotels (offering a total of 5,700 rooms and suites), and the Disney Village entertainment complex.
