Pixar Place Hotel is set to be unveiled in the winter of 2023-2024 at Disneyland Resort in Anaheim
The destination, located in the former Paradise Pier Hotel, will offer new features, including a 186-foot-long waterslide in the "Finding Nemo"-inspired water play area (set to open later in the summer of 2023 for overnight guests of the resort)
Great Maple will be the on-site restaurant; it will begin welcoming diners in the fall of 2023
Befriending a personality-filled Pixar character gleefully guarantees you'll soon enter a colorful new realm, the sort of whimsical world that seems to have emerged, fully formed, from a dream.
Sometimes such a remarkable realm can pop up on this side of the screen, the sort of visit-ready place that finds its effervescent inspiration in the Pixarverse, with characters, films, stories, and other touchstones serving as lively launchpads for a destination's design and spirit.
Set to debut at Disneyland Resort in the winter of 2023-2024, the hotel will feature a fanciful lobby adorned by Pixar characters, including Miguel of "Coco" and Joy from "Inside Out."
Great Maple, the "modern American eatery" will serve as the hotel's restaurant (and operate other food offerings found around the property). The venue will open in the fall of 2023.
And a new water play area inspired by "Finding Nemo" will be available to the resort's overnight guests in the summer of 2023; further details will be announced soon.
