I have always loved to travel though as many can agree, I did not get to do it very often. Whether it was a weekend getaway in the mountains or a week long trip to Disney, having a break from your normal day to day routine felt like a breath of fresh air. As I became an adult and had the ability to travel more and more, I enjoyed all the details that came along with it. From planning trips start to finish, researching and booking dining, and of course the journey of the vacation itself.
Today I find myself most enjoying cruises and of course, Disney but no matter the destination, I hope to be able to help others find new excitements and create unforgettable memories in their adventures.

From the moment I stepped into the redesigned lobby, I knew this wasn’t just a place to sleep- it was a fully immersive experience. The whimsical, Pixar-themed decor, colorful murals, and iconic characters like Woody, Buzz, Joy, and Sully instantly create a feeling of childlike wonder and creativity. We even got greeted by Bing-Bing from Inside Out right in the lobby. Joe Gardner from Soul also made appearances playing the piano near the front desk.
The hotel blends Pixar’s playful storytelling with the comfort and convenience of a deluxe Disneyland Resort hotel—making it a top pick for travelers who want immersive Disney hotel experiences with a modern twist.
🛏️ Rooms Designed for Comfort & Creativity
I stayed in a Premium View Room and was amazed by the stylish, contemporary design with subtle Pixar touches throughout. Think storyboard-inspired artwork, vibrant pops of color, and ultra-comfy bedding perfect for recovering after a long day at the parks.
✔️ Smart TVs
✔️ Modern and spacious layout
✔️ Gorgeous views of Disney's California Adventure
✔️ Pixar-themed details kids and adults will love
Looking for a kid-friendly hotel near Disneyland with room to relax? Pixar Place Hotel delivers.
🌟 Exclusive Disneyland Resort Hotel Benefits
One of the biggest perks of staying at a Disneyland Resort hotel is access to early theme park entry, which allowed me to get a head start on rides like Space Mountain. Plus, guests have access to a private entrance to Disney California Adventure Park, shared through the Grand Californian- hello, VIP treatment!
💡 Travel Agent Tip: These benefits are exclusive to Disneyland Resort hotels and can save you SO much in wait times during peak seasons.
🌊 Rooftop Pool, Water Slide & Fireworks Viewing
One of the biggest highlights of any stay will be the incredible rooftop pool deck. Families will love the Finding Nemo-inspired splash pad and thrilling water slide. Adults? Grab a lounge chair or book a cabana for ultimate relaxation or grab something to eat from Small Bytes. But the best part? Fireworks viewing from the rooftop- with synced music and narration straight from Disneyland Park. No crowds. No hassle. Just pure Disney magic under the stars.
🍽️ Where to Eat: Great Maple Modern American Eatery
The hotel’s new on-site restaurant, Great Maple, is a destination in itself. This upscale yet approachable spot serves modern comfort food with unique twists. Some of my personal favorites:
🥓 Maple Bacon Doughnuts
🍳 Truffle Eggs Benedict
🍟 Duck Fat Truffle Fries
🍔 Biggie Short Rib Burger
There’s also a grab-and-go café for quick breakfasts and coffee before heading to the parks. It’s a game-changer for early mornings.
