The Disneyland Hotel is a hotel in Anaheim, California, notable as the first hotel to officially bear the Disney name. It has been in operation since 1955, although it was not owned by The Walt Disney Company until 1988.
History
The hotel was designed by the firm of Pereira & Luckman, and originally featured a then-futuristic marketplace known as Monorail Plaza, which was demolished in the late 1990s to make way for Downtown Disney.
The Property
The hotel is comprised of three guest room towers: Magic Tower, Dreams Tower, and Wonder Tower. Other buildings in the sprawling hotel complex house restaurants, stores, offices, recreational facilities and convention/banquet facilities. The Downtown Disney Monorail Station, which takes guests to Tomorrowland inside Disneyland Park, and an exclusive entrance to Disney's California Adventure for guests staying at Disneyland Resort hotels are a short walk away. The hotel uses Mickey Mouse theming in many interior furnishings and details.
The Disneyland Hotel Complex also features a gazebo area that is used for Disney's Fairytale Weddings.
