Paradise Pier Hotel Address:
1717 Disneyland Drive
Anaheim, CA 92802
Overview
Disney's Paradise Pier hotel evokes images of beaches and boardwalks, with seashore touches and a light, whimsical design. This resort did not start out as part of Disney's portfolio of hotels - it opened in 1984 as the Emerald of Anaheim and was built to support the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics before Disney purchased the property in 1995. Since then, it has undergone extensive renovations and 're-imagination'. The location of this hotel offers breathtaking views of Disney Californa Adventure, with several of the resorts 481 rooms overlooking the park. Guests staying in upper floors can even get a great view of the nightly "World of Color" show.
TIP: The Paradise Theater, located next to the check in desk in the main lobby, is the perfect spot for the younger guests to sit “on the beach” and enjoy a Disney show. With pint-sized Adirondack chairs and big-screen TV that’s framed by a giant sand castle, this quiet spot is a great place for the little ones to take a break.
