Disneyland Resort has recently unveiled a new addition to its accommodation offerings: the Pixar Place Hotel. This hotel is the first of its kind in the United States, offering a fully Pixar-themed experience. The hotel is a result of a collaboration between the Emeryville-based animation company, Pixar, and Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI). The result is a unique blend of creativity and storytelling that brings the beloved characters and narratives of Pixar films to life in an immersive hotel experience.
The Pixar Place Hotel is not just a place to stay; it’s an experience. One of the standout features of the hotel is an exclusive character meet-and-greet, available only to hotel guests. This unique opportunity allows guests to interact with their favorite Pixar characters in a way that is not available anywhere else in the Disneyland Resort.
But the character meet-and-greet is just the tip of the iceberg. The hotel itself is a renovated version of the old Disney’s Paradise Pier, now reinvigorated with art depicting scenes and characters from Pixar movies, ranging from “Toy Story” to “Elemental”. The hotel is a canvas that showcases the extraordinary creativity and storytelling prowess of Pixar and WDI.
Disneyland Resort President Ken Potrock praised the collaboration between WDI and Pixar at the hotel’s opening ceremony on January 30, stating, “The collaboration between WDI and the Pixar team has been extraordinary. What an amazing job this team has done to really bring to life this canvas that allowed for amazing creativity, amazing opportunities to utilize the stories and the characters of our beloved Pixar films in such extraordinary ways.”
