Disney unveiled its iconic Disneyland Hotel in Paris on January 25th, following a two-year renovation of the renowned rose-colored building.
The reopening is a significant moment in the continuous development of the European portion of the renowned “happiest place on Earth”. The Walt Disney Studios Park will soon feature a Frozen-inspired area and a ride based on the movie Tangled.
Guests of all ages will be greeted by a royal host upon entering the newly renovated flagship hotel. They can enjoy breakfast with beloved Disney characters and stay in one of the 487 rooms and suites, designed with inspiration from the libraries of renowned French castles.
A grand lobby is adorned with a chandelier crafted from Bohemian crystal, resembling the Sleeping Beauty castle.

Five unique room designs, each named after a princess from popular fairytales such as Cinderella and Rapunzel, along with two exclusive suites – the luxurious Beauty and the Beast-themed Princely suite and the majestic Frozen-inspired Royal Ice Palace – are available for guests who are willing to spend generously for the ultimate “Castle Club” experience. The Royal Suite, in particular, is rumored to cost a staggering £9,000 per night.
The Royal Suite draws inspiration from the Frozen Ice Palace of Elsa.
In addition, there is a private entrance to Disney park through the hotel’s elevator, early admission to the parks, a selection of seven different types of pillows, and designated “story keepers” who will accompany Disney enthusiasts throughout the hotel.
The Clarins spa at Disneyland Hotel provides a relaxing break from the busy theme park activities. It offers pools and treatments for both adults and children, allowing them to feel pampered like royalty. When it comes to dining, guests can expect a touch of French sophistication.
