As the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration gets underway starting May 16, 2025, the legendary Disneyland Hotel is also celebrating a major milestone—its 70th anniversary. Known for its magical ambiance, immersive theming, and family-friendly accommodations, the hotel first opened its doors in 1955, just three months after Disneyland Park welcomed its first guests.
Today, the hotel remains a crown jewel of Disney hospitality, now featuring 973 guest rooms, 71 suites, and an additional 344 themed rooms at The Villas at Disneyland Hotel. Recognized with the AAA Four Diamond Award, the resort continues to offer a unique blend of nostalgia and modern comfort.
