Disney's Hotel Santa Fe |
Disney's Hotel Santa Fe is a hotel at Disneyland Resort Paris. It is designed by architect Antoine Predock, whose other work stands mainly in the American Southwest, to evoke the atmosphere of a motel in Santa Fe, New Mexico with its typical Pueblo Revival architecture. Surrounding the buildings is a desert-like environment in which cacti, a drive-in theater screen permanently displaying the portrait of Clint Eastwood and decorative neon have been placed to further emphasise the American Southwestern theme. An intentionally derelict neon sign stands at the entrance. It shares an area of Disneyland Resort Paris with Disney's Hotel Cheyenne, located on either side of a man-made river called the Rio Grande.
Another example of recreated Southwestern pueblo architecture can be found here in the Disneyland Park: the Fuente del Oro restaurant in Frontierland displays massive adobe-style walls with protruding wooden beams and deeply inset windows.
The hotel opened with Disneyland Resort Paris in April of 1992.
