When visiting Tokyo Disneyland, aside from diving into the dream world inside the park, some opt to stay at Disney hotels to enjoy the magical experience of being surrounded by Disney characters from the moment they wake up. The "Disney Ambassador Hotel," which carries on the retro style of 1930s America, underwent a fresh makeover this February (2013). Mickey, Minnie, and Donald Duck are everywhere, and you can even sleep in a bed with Mickey-themed bedding, covered with Mickey’s clothes and pants.

Themed around the 1930s American style, the "Disney Ambassador Hotel" greets guests right at the entrance with Minnie and Donald Duck flying in a glider, instantly making newcomers feel the joy of soaring into the sky. The nostalgic Ambassador Hotel features special 1930s American installation artworks in the lobby that blend seamlessly with the chairs and decor, making you feel like you’ve stepped into a magical world full of adventure and mystery.

The Ambassador Hotel, themed mainly around the three popular Disney characters – Mickey, Minnie, and Donald Duck – has specially designed three unique celebrity-themed room types. From the moment you open the door, you’ll see the footprints of Mickey and Minnie on the doormat, leading you into the room. Disney characters appear on the walls, lamps, beds, and sinks, each in different poses and shapes, launching you into an exciting “treasure hunt” experience as soon as you step inside.

At the Disney Ambassador Hotel, what guests praise the most is the magical time of having breakfast with “Chef Mickey” every morning. While guests enjoy the buffet breakfast, Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto appear nearby, wandering around and inspecting the day’s dishes. If children ask, they’ll even help with autographs and photos. A day full of joy and magic at the Disney Ambassador Hotel begins right here.
