The royally reimagined Disneyland Hotel invites all guests – especially children – to experience an immersive journey into royal Disney stories combined with unparalleled hospitality,  fine dining and uniquely Disney entertainment.

A ROYALLY REIMAGINED FLAGSHIP HOTEL

Disneyland Paris is in the midst of an unprecedented transformation, adding even more magic to park icons and classic rides while unveiling exciting experiences like the recently opened Marvel Avengers Campus and soon a Frozen-themed land at Walt Disney Studios Park. The reopening of Disneyland Hotel represents a significant milestone in the resort’s ongoing investment and development.

The third largest hotel owner-operator in France[1], close to Paris, Disneyland Paris blends magic, service excellence and immersive storytelling with families in mind, at seven distinct Disney hotels. Offering 5,700 rooms and suites, Disneyland Paris is the number one hotel chain in France for families[2], with a range of offerings for many needs and budgets. Furthermore, Disneyland Paris the number one hotel operator among European theme parks1.

The resort’s seven Disney Hotels extend the magic of the parks for guests to stay engaged in Disney storytelling for their entire stay – a must-do and a true escape for guests to spend time with family and friends. Each hotel has its own distinct atmosphere for an unforgettable visit, with exclusive offerings and carefully chosen themes that integrate Disney franchises with European audiences specifically in mind.

An exclusive 2023 study [3] done by Disneyland Paris in partnership with IFOP indicates 83% of US consumers would like five-star hotels to be places with a magical atmosphere and décor, and 85% expect such hotels to also offer unique experiences for children. Disneyland Hotel is uniquely positioned to meet these consumer expectations.Located at the entrance to Disneyland Park, it offers world-class hospitality, vibrant storytelling, unique entertainment, creative dining, and all the amenities and services expected of an international five-star hotel – even for our youngest guests. At the heart of the experience are 800 Cast Members, each trained to an extraordinary standard of service so that every guest receives royal treatment.

“The reopening of Disneyland Hotel marks a new milestone in the transformation of Disneyland Paris, extending our legacy as a leader in the European tourism industry with a unique blend of storytelling and service excellence, not to mention our exceptional capacity to welcome families,” said Natacha Rafalski, Présidente of Disneyland Paris. “We are thrilled to unveil this a one-of-a-kind five-star property celebrating beloved Disney royalty, which represents one of the most immersive hotels in Europe today.”

The level of Disney storytelling integration in Disneyland Hotel was made possible by the work of Disneyland Paris teams, including Walt Disney Imagineering and its unique collaboration with Walt Disney Animation Studios, combined with the excellence of French and European companies renowned for their expertise and savoir-faire in a wide range of artistic skills – in total, more than 200 from France and across Europe. The result is a singular, immersive experience that pays homage to royal Disney stories and celebrated European landmarks.

This is just the next step in an exciting multi-year transformation underway at Disneyland Paris, reaching every corner of the resort to provide an unforgettable guest experience and magical memories for generations to come.
