Tokyo Disney Resort Toy Story Hotel recently welcomed its first guests. With 595 guest rooms, the 11-story Toy Story Hotel is the fifth Disney-themed accommodation at Tokyo Disney Resort and its first moderate-class resort.
Upon arrival guests will immediately feel immersed into the world and colorful imagination of Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie and all their favorite friends from the Toy Story films. Walt Disney Imagineering and Pixar Animation Studios collaborated on the design to make guests feel as if they are shrunk to toy-size and are welcomed as “honorary toys.” As the story goes, Andy has assembled this toy hotel so that his toys have a place to stay and play while he is away at Cowboy Camp.
In the front plaza area of the hotel is Slinky Dog Park, celebrating the fun and joy of playing with toys. Guests will discover oversized toy action figures of Jessie and Buzz Lightyear, nearly 12 feet tall, standing on an enormous Slinky Dog game board.
Inside the lobby, guests will find slot cars racing on tracks overhead, a giant Bo Peep game board on the ceiling, puzzle pieces used to decorate the floor, colorful furniture and more.
Off the lobby is Gift Planet, a merchandise location overseen by the Aliens, where guests may purchase unique Toy Story Hotel merchandise
The bright colors and theming continue through the elevator areas and guest corridors. The hotel has two wings. One side is themed to Buzz Lightyear and the other is themed to Woody’s Roundup. The guest rooms themselves are reminiscent of Andy’s own bedroom, with the iconic cloud motif adorning the walls. The television set is a giant Etch-A-Sketch.
Guests can dine at the Lotso Garden Café, themed to everyone’s favorite strawberry-scented bear. This buffet-style restaurant serves delicious food, including desserts inspired by Toy Story. Guests will enjoy eating in the colorful dining area with murals depicting Lotso raising smiling fruits and vegetables.
Facing Tokyo Bay in the back of the hotel, and accessible from behind the lobby, guests will climb stairs past an oversized Hamm operating a toy crane hoisting his Alien friends and enter Toy Friends Square.
This area celebrates the beauty, wonder and importance of friendship. Here they will encounter oversized figures of Woody and Bo Peep, Bo’s three-headed sheep, Wheezy the singing penguin, and several other favorite toys.
The toys can’t wait to welcome all their new “honorary toy” friends. Andy’s away, so it’s time to play!
