A Royal Retreat Draped in Autumn Splendor: Disneyland Hotel in Paris Receives an Enchanted Autumnal Makeover

This is the first time Disneyland Paris' flagship hotel has been decorated for the season since its major remodel last year.

As the Halloween season descends over Disneyland Paris, the Disneyland Hotel will be dressed in autumnal colors for the first time since its recent transformation.

What’s Happening:

  • Teams from Walt Disney Imagineering and Hotel Product Resort have collaborated to create stunning decorations, befitting the royal elegance of Disneyland Hotel.
  • As soon as guests arrive at the hotel, they’ll be greeted by a porch adorned with garlands of red and orange leaves, along with pumpkins topped with flowers placed around the fountain.
  • The enchantment continues once inside the majestic lobby, as the beautiful garlands seen below frame the majestic lobby staircase and the railings of the first and second floors.

  • These autumnal arrangements—featuring remarkably realistic maple leaves, chrysanthemums, dahlias, red berries and miniature pumpkins—bring a traditional yet elegant touch, in harmony with the splendor of the setting.
  • On the guests’ path as they walk inside the lobby, two iconic Halloween pumpkins of unusual proportions have been placed at the bottom of the steps: these wooden sculptures, carved by the Disneyland Hotel carpenter, perfectly complement the season’s theme.
  • Each contains a beautiful floral arrangement in autumnal colours, with compositions that, with a little imagination, hint at some well-known Disney Villain tales…

  • We stopped by the Disneyland Hotel to get a closer look at the new autumnal decorations.
