The refurbished Paradise Pier Hotel will officially rebrand as Pixar Place Hotel on January 30, 2024, the Disneyland Resort announced today.
The hotel, which has remained open during its transformation, will feature reimagined guest rooms featuring Pixar-inspired decorations. Disneyland today released a new concept photo of one of the new Pixar Place Hotel guest rooms.
Disneyland also shared updated concept art for the hotel's lobby, which will feature Luxo Jr. atop a Pixar ball, below an abstract mobile inspired by various Pixar characters.
While Disney passed on the opportunity to call the entry area to the hotel its "Lobb-E," it did employ that pun by renaming the hotel's gift shop as "STOR-E."
The official theme switch does not happen until January, but the hotel already has opened its refurbished rooftop pool area as well as a new and expanded fitness center. Next month, the hotel will welcome its new Great Maple restaurant, to be followed by a new lobby grab-and-go coffee shop called Sketch Pad Café and a new menu at the Small Bytes rooftop pool bar.

When my family visited in March, we could see the construction around, amazed stayed open through it.

@colonel: It doesn't appear so, at least not right away. Room rates are higher for next weekend and non-Holiday weekends in November (pre-Thanksgiving: $489 a night) than on a slow weekend shortly after this opens in January ($409 a night).
But, we'll see.

Do you know if they're increasing room prices (over their annual rate increase)? This has typically been the least expensive of the three Disney hotels, I could see them using this refurb to bring its prices in line with those of the Disneyland Hotel.
