Halloween Time is in full swing at the Disneyland Resort, and it’s not just the parks getting in on the spooky season fun! All three Disneyland Resort hotels are decked out through October 31 with seasonal décor, themed dining, character experiences, and special activities exclusively for overnight guests. Here’s a look at everything happening at each hotel this Halloween season!
Pixar Place Hotel
Pixar Place Hotel is getting a Monsters, Inc. makeover this fall thanks to brand new seasonal artwork featuring Mike, Sulley, Boo, and the rest of the Monstropolis crew. The artwork was created by artist Brett Snodgrass and gives the hotel a fun, colorful Halloween touch that Pixar fans of all ages are going to love.
Guests staying here will also have the chance to catch live jazz piano performances by the Joe Gardner character from Soul. Only at a Disney hotel!
Disneyland Hotel
The iconic Disneyland Hotel is leaning into its Haunted Mansion makeover in a big way, showcasing the four doomed souls from the legendary stretching room, complete with a wrought iron gate photo opportunity that is going to be perfect for your Halloween content.
Dining at Goofy’s Kitchen continues through the season with Halloween-themed breakfast, brunch, and dinner buffets. Advance reservations are highly recommended as these fill up fast.
Starting October 13 and running through October 31, guests can also catch pumpkin carving demonstrations on the hotel grounds, plus faux pumpkin decorating on select weekdays.
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel and Spa
The Grand Californian is pulling out all the stops this Halloween. The hotel’s pastry team spent over 800 hours crafting a stunning Nightmare Before Christmas confectionery display set on Spiral Hill. The centerpiece features Jack Skellington, Sally, Zero, Oogie Boogie, and the Mayor, and it was made using 140 pounds of fondant, 175 pounds of chocolate, and more. It is truly a work of art that deserves to be seen in person.
And that’s not all. Near Goofy’s Kitchen, keep your eyes peeled for a 5-foot Mickey Mouse pumpkin confection that contains 13 hidden Mickeys!
Dining options at the Grand Californian include Mickey’s Autumn Adventures breakfast/brunch and Clarabelle’s Enchanted Halloween Dinner at Storytellers Café. Advance reservations are strongly recommended for both.
If you’re looking for some pampering while you’re there, the Tenaya Stone Spa is offering a seasonal “Wicked to the Core” foot treatment featuring caramel-scented soaks and candy apple sugar scrubs. Yes, please!
Exclusive Perks for Overnight Guests
One of the best reasons to stay at a Disneyland Resort hotel during Halloween Time is the exclusive activities available only to hotel guests. Here’s what you can enjoy as an overnight guest:
A Halloween Time Treat Trail with trick-or-treating is available throughout the season. Just stop by the front desk for your wristbands. There are also movie nights, drawing classes, and even washcloth creation sessions for little ones.
Beyond Halloween, all hotel guests receive one complimentary Lightning Lane entry per guest, preferred dining reservation access, and easy park access through a convenient location. You can even charge purchases to your room directly through the Disneyland app.
