Hi Haley! A very warm welcome to planDisney!
Thank you for stopping by with your great question about amenities at the Pixar Place Hotel pool. I love your idea of maximizing the magic after checkout! I spoke with a Cast Member to confirm that, unfortunately, changing rooms and showers are not available in the pool area. However, Guests are welcome to use the restrooms in the hotel lobby. I hope that's helpful!
You are in for a delightful stay at the
Pixar Place Hotel, Haley, oh my goodness! You'll adore the whimsical artistry throughout the hotel and perhaps even have the chance to hear Joe Gardner from "Soul" tickling the ivories or meet Bing Bong in the lobby. These are magical moments, for sure.
Haley, I have to make sure I mention, since you are staying at the Pixar Place Hotel, you will have access to the special theme park entrance into California Adventure Park! This designated entrance is right across the street from Pixar Place Hotel, and you should see signs directing you through a peaceful pathway. It took me and my son only about five minutes to walk there, at a very leisurely pace! If you have a theme park ticket, feel free to use this entrance during morning hours and especially for California Adventure's Early Entry, and anytime as an exit back to your hotel.
You'll definitely want to take advantage of Early Entry, Haley, which allows Disneyland Resort Hotel Guests (you!) into one of the two parks each day 30 minutes prior to official park opening. Enjoy lower wait times on some of your highest priority attractions!
Make your park reservations for Disneyland Park on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays and California Adventure on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, to take advantage of this perk. (Double check the
Hours & Events Calendar to confirm Early Entry days.)
I'm so thrilled you have a special visit to the Happiest Place on Earth coming up and am excited for all the wonder and fun you're about to experience! If you have any other planning questions, please don't hesitate to
ask me! I'd love to share more of my tips and recommendations for a truly magical time in Disneyland, like maybe where to find my favorite
70th Celebration treats or some strategies to make sure you hit all your top priorities.
See you real soon!
Warmest wishes,
McCayla
