Disney's Hotel Santa Fe is a hotel at Disneyland Paris. It is designed by Albuquerque- based architect Antoine Predock[1], 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 Paris with Disney's Hotel Cheyenne, located on either side of a man-made river called the Rio Grande.
The hotel opened with the Euro Disney Resort in April 1992.
Trivia
- 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.
