- Lighting reminiscent of the Pixar Lamp
- Headboards with concept art from a variety of Pixar features, including “The Incredibles,” “Toy Story 3” and more
- Artwork created by Pixar Animation Studios artists especially for Pixar Place Hotel

An imaginative mobile of beloved Pixar characters floating from the bright skylight above. The mobile will depict the beginning stages of Pixar filmmaking, when animators create the characters’ designs with their most basic shapes and colors. The characters you’ll see are at the beginning of their journey, just as the guests who step into the lobby begin their own story at the Disneyland Resort!

Three new dining locations will be featured the hotel including the Great Maple signature restaurant plus a smaller Sketch Pad Café in the lobby and a casual rooftop pool bar called Small Bytes.
Pixar Pool
This rooftop oasis features Pixel Pool, which is lined with relaxing loungers, along with Nemo’s Cove pop-jet splash pad, and the not-to-miss Crush’s Surfin’ Slide, a 186-foot-long water slide inspired by the coolest sea turtle in the ocean. The adjacent play court and pool bar will open later this fall.
