Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel, formerly the Disneyland Pacific Hotel, is a resort hotel at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California USA.
It offers the ambiance of an intimate beach resort and many of the guest rooms overlook Paradise Pier, the waterfront land in Disney's California Adventure Park.
Facilities
The hotel contains 489 rooms, 29 of them suites, over 30,000 square feet (3,000 m²) for meeting space and a 7,250-square-foot (670 m²) ballroom.
Hotel guests used to have their own entrance to Disney's California Adventure Park, located between the Corn Dog Castle and Souvenir 66 in the Paradise Pier section of the park, but it was closed due to low use.
The pool was recently renovated to include a waterslide themed to the California Screamin' roller coaster, known as California Streamin'.
History
The property originally opened as the Emerald Hotel in 1984 and was later known as the Pan Pacific Hotel. Disney purchased it in December 1995 and changed its name to the Disneyland Pacific Hotel. In December 2000, the hotel was remodeled and reopened as Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel to complement one of the themed lands in the adjacent Disney's California Adventure Park.
The hotel is one of the few tall buildings in the Western Hemisphere to have a 13th floor. Due to the common superstition of the number 13, most buildings in America skip that number — the floor after 12 is 14, then 15 and so on. This is a result of the original owners being from Japan, where 13 is not considered bad luck. Disney has not since changed this.
