After the recent renovations at theย Disneylandยฎ Hotel, you will notice that its exterior looks a little blue. But if you stare into that shade of blue, you will see a lot of “GREEN!”
Those blue tinted windows are just one of the many energy-efficient changes that were made at the Disneylandยฎ Hotel.
Details and concept art have been released that will give theย Disneylandยฎย Hotel in California a fun, fresh makeover. The pool area is getting a whole new look, including a brand-new pool, all-new immersive water play area and a complete redesign of the Never Land Pool. Plans also call for a new restaurant and bar, and re-theming of the hotelโs three guest room towers.
Pool Transformations
The biggest transformation are the changes coming to the pool area. With a nod to the iconic original park signage,ย Disneyland will be spelled out in familiar blocks atop a platform supporting two huge water slides. Reminiscent of the original Monorail station at the Disneyland Hotel, at each slideโs entrance will sit a replica Monorail Car that guests will glide through as they twist and turn their way to the pool below. The pool will also feature a third, two-lane mini slide, perfect for little ones.
The Never Land Pool will receive a complete cosmetic makeover but will retain its unique shape. A new, four-foot deep pool will be built between the Never Land Pool and the water play area. A footbridge will stretch over this new pool, connecting both sides of the courtyard area and giving easy access across the property. Six new cabanas will also be added. ย The new water play area and pool are scheduled to be completed by summer 2011, and the remodeled Never Land Pool is slated to be completed by summer 2012.
New Dining Locations
Two new dining locations will be introduced in the current location of Hookโs Pointe, Crocโs Bites and Bits, the Wine Cellar and the Lost Bar. A new smart casual dining concept will feature Tahitian architecture that is reminiscent of the โ50s and โ60s era of the hotel and the original Tahitian Terrace restaurant in Disneyland park. A new bar will draw on the adventure theme from theย Jungle Cruise attraction. ย These are scheduled to be completed Summer 2011.
Hotel Guest Rooms
The hotelโs three guest room towers will be renamed to reflectย Disneylandยฎย parkโs distinctive lands. The Dreams Tower, currently under renovation and scheduled to be completed in 2010, will become the Adventure Tower. The Wonder Tower, next to undergo transformation and slated for completion in 2011, will be the Frontier Tower, and the Magic Tower, which will be finished in 2012, will become the Fantasy Tower. A large marquee featuring classic artwork for Adventureland, Frontierland and Fantasyland will identify each tower.
Renovated Rooms at the Disneyland Hotel will bring the Immersive Park Experience into Guest Rooms:
