Today, Disneyland Resort announced the new Pixar Place Hotel, replacing Paradise Pier hotel, will be opening January 30th, 2024!
Pixar Place Hotel will evoke the inspiration and humor that goes into every Pixar film, while celebrating the artistic process. Showcasing early sketches to finished design, the art and decor will highlight vibrant Pixar stories, revealing some never-before-seen artwork.

Disney also gave our first look at the reimagined guest rooms! Guests will notice pillows inspired by the Pixar Ball to lighting appearing like the Pixar Lamp. Some of the art was created by Pixar artists specifically for the hotel.
Great Maple, opening in November, will bring its innovative menu of upscale comfort food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This modern American eatery will serve a robust selection of dishes made from scratch daily including the Cajun Shrimp & Cheddar Biscuit Benedict, Soda Pop-Braised Baby Back Ribs, Charred Cauliflower Hummus, Maple Pecan-Crusted Salmon, Market Fish, a variety of inspired salads, and Buttermilk Fried Chicken & Maple Bacon Doughnuts.
A few weeks after the ground-floor flagship eatery opens, more culinary delights also operated by Great Maple will open. A new grab-and-go coffee shop in the lobby called Sketch Pad Café will serve assorted pastries accompanied by a selection of coffee and tea. Plus, an all-new menu will debut at the rooftop pool bar to be named Small Bytes, serving up salads, wraps, assorted cheese plates and more which you can enjoy with signature beverages.
The hotel’s new “Finding Nemo”-themed splash pad and pool area recently opened for guests. This rooftop oasis features Pixel Pool, which is lined with loungers, along with Nemo’s Cove pop-jet splash pad, and the Crush’s Surfin’ Slide, a 186-foot-long water slide inspired by the coolest sea turtle in the ocean. The play court and pool bar will open later this fall.
Near the pool, guests can gather on couches surrounding fire pits inspired by some of Pixar’s more “hotheaded” characters, including Jack-Jack from Pixar’s “The Incredibles” and Anger from Pixar’s “Inside Out.”
In the lobby, there is a new gift shop, STOR-E — a playful take on the Pixar film name “WALL-E” — featuring Pixar-themed apparel and toys, plus more Disneyland Resort souvenirs and sundries.
A new and expanded fitness center also recently opened, offering treadmills, free weights and more complimentary for hotel guests. Keep an eye out for a mural of Mike and Sulley running on a treadmill, inspired by Pixar’s “Monsters University.”
Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel is open and welcoming guests during this transformation. For more information or to book your stay at Pixar Place Hotel, contact your Crescent Lake Club agent today!
