Disney opened the doors of its landmark Disneyland Hotel in Paris on 25 January after a two-year “reimagination” of the statement pink palace.

The reopening marks a milestone in the ongoing transformation of the European slice of the “happiest place on Earth”, with a Frozen-themed land and a Tangled ride still to come at the Walt Disney Studios Park.

Inside the renovated flagship hotel, guests of all ages will be welcomed by a royal greeter, eat breakfast with Disney characters,and sleep in one of 487 rooms and suites, with interiors inspired by the libraries of famous French castles.
