We stopped by the Disneyland Hotel to look at the progress of the large construction project on the resort towers and amenities. The tower for the Monorail water slides has peaked out and the slides are now being installed. Meanwhile the restaurant exterior looks more Hawaiian every day.

ouahh, superbe...
Une rêve pour nous d'aller aux US, peut-être bientôt.

Tangaroa Terrace and Trader Sam's both opened their doors for soft openings this week. Along with the two restaurants the new Monorail water slides have begun testing with the lifeguards acting as guinea pig and testing things out.


A new outdoor seating area and fire place

TANGAROA TERRACE
The new Tangaroa Terrace that occupies half of what was once Lost Bar and Croc's Bits and Bites. This is a new counter serve restaurant with a surprisingly large amount of effort put into food as well as the atmosphere despite it's limited indoor seating.


Guests enter the front doors and queue up to place an order for hot items at any one of three touch screen kiosks. A ticket is printed out and customers then proceed to the cold foods case, dessert case and bottled beverage cooler before hitting the counter. After paying for their items guests have a small amount of indoor seating and expansive outdoor seating to choose from.


Consider this the Disneyland Hotel answer to Whitewater snacks at the Grand Californian Hotel. The food that we had, the Fried Chicken Sandwich and Hamburger were both surprisingly good. The service, top notch if not a little slow. Overall it was a pretty good dining experience.

TRADER SAM'S
Sam's is a very dark, very small, but very cool new bar. We did not have a drink here but took in the surroundings instead.


MONORAIL SLIDES:
While we were in the area taking in the Terrace and Sam's we had the chance to look at the Monorail water slides. They were not open, but Lifeguards were on duty, testing out the slides and going over basic procedure.






Looks like this might be staying.

The slides and structure are shiny and new, but lack the visual weight to be too much of a focal point although the night lighting should help to a degree. The water slides empty into small pools of water and are not attached to the existing pool. This is more a glamorized water play area than anything. We will be curious to see how the lounging crowd from Trader Sam's plays out with the likely screaming youngsters on the adjacent water slides. Let's hope all goes well and the two can coexist.

Le restaurant Tangaroa Terrace et le bar Trader Sam's ont officiellement ouverts leurs portes le weekend dernier au Disneyland Hotel à Anaheim.

La nouvelle piscine, son toboggan "monorail" et les trois premières cabanas sont également accessibles aux guests depuis le weekend dernier.

Les cabanas (des cabines de plages entièrement équipées : télévision à écran plat, réfrigérateur, coffre-fort, téléphone...) peuvent être louées soit à la journée (185 USD) soit par bloc de 4 heures (115 USD) - maximum 6 guests par cabana.

Malgré tout les travaux ne sont pas encore entièrement terminés à la piscine du Disneyland hotel puisque trois cabanas supplémentaires seront encore construites.

The media also toured the newly revamped Disneyland Hotel grounds on Thursday, including the new Monorail water slide pool area, which is now open to the public as well as the fancy new premium guest suites.


The new themed guest suites are also now available, including the newly revealed Adventureland Suite.







Frontierland and Fairytale Suites are also available:









Outside of the Frontier Tower, a new geyser and waterfall area has opened. The waterfalls are a nice nod to the former Horseshoe Falls that once marked the entrance to the Frontier Tower, but obviously pale in comparison. The geyser is a nice thematic touch, and a welcome homage to former Frontierland features inside Disneyland.


Over at the Adventure Tower, the lobby is still not finished but is open with new lobby furniture, matching the Adventureland theme.







Outside, the Never Land Pool area is now behind walls as it passes on to Yesterland. The pool will remain as-is but its surroundings will change.

J'avais pas encore vu la suite Adventureland, mais elle est aussi magnifique que la suite Fantasyland et la suite Frontierland (c'est vraiment ce qui manque à notre DLH... enfin pour la suite Fantasyland, on a déjà des choses approchantes, mais pour les autres).

Over at the Disneyland Hotel, demolition on the Never Land Pool area is progressing quickly. The pool stairs are being removed and the pool will be re-plastered as it becomes the new "E-Ticket"-themed pool.




Work progresses on the Fantasy Tower

Je trouve les nouvelles suites, les nouveaux bars et les nouvelles installations aquatiques très réussies et très pertinentes dans ce thème d'un hotel basé sur la nostalgie du Disneyland original.
Par contre, je ne comprends pas pourquoi la réhabilitation de l'extérieur des buildings ne va pas plus loin qu'un simple ravalement de facade (en gros). Vu de l'extérieur, ces bâtiments sont propres, mais sans aucun thème. si je vois difficilement un thème proprement dit, pourquoi ne pas lui avoir offert un petit look années 50, comme le toboggan de la piscine?

Sa a l'air superbe je ne savais pas que leur DLH avait son propre parc aquatique

Outside the parks, work continues at the Disneyland Hotel as it continues its major remodel project.


Almost done with the Fantasy Tower!


Formerly called The Pavilion, this structure now sports a nice tiki theme, matching the Tangaroa Terrace and Trader Sam's complex across the bridge from it.










Work continues at the former Neverland Pool, which has been stripped of theming and is set to be renamed the "E-Ticket Pool."

C'est tout simplement magnifique !

Pas mal la nouvelle Adventurland Suite .
Je doutes un peu de l'utilité d'une baignoire au milieu de la chambre à coucher mais bon .
J'ai entendu que la bibliothèque coulissait pour révéler un "chambre secrète" mais impossible d'en trouver une photo
