Disneyland Paris has announced a refurbishment to its 1,010 room on-site hotel, Disney Sequoia Lodge. As we have laid out in our Disney Sequoia Lodge Hotel Review, while we love the hotel, it is in need of a refresh as it's getting a little rough around the edges. Starting in 2026, the major refurbishment will begin.
"Starting in 2026, major refurbishment work will be carried out to enhance and elevate the experience offered at Disney Sequoia Lodge, while preserving its wooden décor along with its authentic and warm atmosphere that guests have cherished since 1992. The structure of interior spaces will be reimagined from floor to ceiling, paving the way for a fresh look characterised by greater brightness and a touch of modernity. The design will pay homage to the beauty of nature, taking inspiration from the forests following the tradition started by Walt Disney and his team of animators. Every space, from the rooms to the lobby, as well as the shopping and dining locations, will be reinvented as an ode to wildlife, offering the perfect environment to unwind and let one's mind wander. This transformation will also be marked by the hotel's theming of landscape and forest animals - the nods to the classic Disney Animation film Bambi that can be currently found in rooms will evolve towards a broader theme that will celebrate many Disney characters from classic and recent movies set in the forest. They will be subtly incorporated into the different experiences offered at the hotel in a thoughtfully creative approach. Respect for nature and sustainability will also be reflected in the construction materials, which have been carefully selected to minimise the environmental impact of the Disney Sequoia Lodge refurbishment work."

The hotel will remain open during the refurbishment work, which will start in 2026 and will be carried out in phases.
