Disney Sequoia Lodge to Undergo Major Refurbishment Starting in 2026 at Disneyland Paris
Hi everyone!
Disney Sequoia Lodge will receive a major refurbishment at Disneyland Paris starting in 2026. The hotel will remain open and the work will be carried out in phases. This refurbishment has been talked about for so long, I can’t wait to see it happen! Disney Sequoia Lodge is the first Disneyland Paris hotel I ever stayed at, back during my first visit in 2002.
Read below for more information on the Disney Sequoia Lodge refurbishment from Disneyland Paris.
After the grand reopening of Disney Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel in 2021 and the unveiling of the royally reimagined Disneyland Hotel in 2024, Disneyland Paris reveals the next ambitious transformation of another Disney Hotel – Disney Sequoia Lodge, and its 1,010 rooms. Nestled on the shore of Lake Disney, in a natural setting filled with pine trees and sequoias, this iconic hotel inspired by lodges in American National Parks will become a unique getaway celebrating nature alongside forest animals from the Disney animated films at the end of its transformation journey.
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 of characterized by greater brightness and a touch of modernity. The design will pay homage to the beauty of nature to the next level while 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 of Disney characters from classic and recent movies from 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 minimize 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.
