The ever-popular Disney doesn't just have theme parks, but many hotels as well. In this article, we're going to be introducing somewhere that every Disney fan should stay at least once, opened first in Japan, "Disney Ambassador Hotel".
Welcome to Disney Ambassador Hotel
The theme of this white and blue accented building is "A 1930s America overflowing with romance and dreams". Within the hotel, you'll find various stylish and popular designs from around the world during the theme's time frame.
After entering through the main entrance, the first thing you'll come into contact with and see has to be the statue of Mickey Mouse dressed up as a film director which is placed in the center of the room. If you look towards where the camera is facing, you'll see other characters from the Disney world such as Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy flying planes along the ceiling spelling out the name of the hotel. As you can probably guess, the setting is "Mickey Mouse filming his friends flying planes".
Within Disney Ambassador Hotel you'll find 7 floors with 504 total rooms, 4 restaurants, a bridal salon, and even a convenience store. Throughout the building, you'll find lots of items relating to the characters and films from Disney. When using the stairs going to the banquet hall, you'll find 2 statues of Mickey and Minnie Mouse, both of which are really cute!
Stay in a Room with your Favourite Disney Characters
The guest rooms at Disney Ambassador Hotel are split into 2 floors, the "Standard Floor" and "Ambassador Floor". No matter which type you choose, you can always feel your favorite Disney characters close by. For guest rooms on the standard floor, you can check-in at the front desk in the lobby found on the first floor. For suite rooms on the ambassador floor, you can check-in and out at the "ambassador lounge" found on the 6th floor, there are also drink services available. This will surely allow you that extra level of comfort and fun during your stay.
Hotel Original Goods & Playground - Only for Hotel Guests!

There are also some products known as the "Disney Hotel Exclusives" which can only be purchased by guests staying within the hotel.
Also, there is a cute Chip'n'Dale themed playground available for children who are in middle school or under usable by guests at the hotel. The entire playground is made in the image of Chip and Dale's world, from the wallpaper to the ceiling, everything fits what you would expect of a Chip and Dale world. It's made so people can enter into the tree, where Chip and Dale are painted, almost like a secret hideout!
