Disney’s Hotel New York - The Art of Marvel

Really excited about this. I'm a massive Disney and marvel fan so I will stay here for sure.

Disney is for everyone, not just the Princess brigade. The way I see it, with this new refurb for every room booking lost from the nostalgia crowd who dont like change, there will be 2 new room bookings from those staying onsite for the first time.

And honestly really what does a New York themed hotel have to do with Disney other than being American??? Sequoia Lodge I can make the connection as Disneyland California has The Grand Californian Hotel and Walt Disney World has The Grand Floridian Resort

I'm curious as to if they will do anything to the façade. I appriciate details are limited at the moment, but it seems to me that all it'll be is a few Iron Man suits in the lobby and a few other bits (carpet) here and there.

I personally will still stay in the hotel and give it a good chance before writing it off.
I'm not a huge fan of all the marvel films but the rest of my family are.
However it is only a theme and it's really how the hotel looks and functions after the refurb that matters.

Conversely my friend and oft Disney companion is suddenly interested in staying there again now she's heard about the Marvel refurb having not been impressed with hotel the one time we've stayed there. It's simply a matter of personal preference and I think this is a great idea since the other two top priced hotels offer a very clear alternative.

I can,t believe people are moaning about the hny refurb,it really doesn't matter what theme they have it is still a disneyl hotel with Disney cast members.
I have been going to dlp since it opened and have seen so many changes,so many shows lost,parades lost and attractions gone,but it is still disneyland and it is still magical.so moan when everything is finished and you hate it not before you have stayed in the hotel.

The newest 'news' (not seen it confirmed yet) is that it closes October 2018 and reopens in 2020. Obviously the hotel is undergoing and enormous refit and can't remain open, but it just goes to show how much spare capacity DLP still has in its hotels if it can afford to shut one for at least 15 months.

EDIT: Now it is confirmed on the DLP site. Reopening is 'within 2020'. Impossible really to give an exact date until they're well into the works.

What the new rooms will look like:

Anyone know if there has been an update to the October 2018 closure date? Looked at the DLP and magic breaks websites today and saw that the New York was coming up in results for the last week of November. Last time I looked It wasn't showing in the results for the same November dates. Looked around but couldn't find any other information about this.

I think I saw it was supposed to be end of the Christmas season now. I can't remember where I saw this though but know I can get prices for over the Christmas period.

Yes it is bookable until January 2019 and then goodbye to the original theme. I am hoping to stay in November as a goodbye. It appears the Manhattan Restaurant is closed in November any news on what is happening there? Are they just getting to work on that before the big closure?

I wish we had stayed at the NY previously, because the Marvel theme aint my thing and the art deco deal was! I said 'One day I'm gonna stay there' and never did. Doubt I will choose it in future. Regrets eh?!

Zee79 · August 31, 2018, 09:07:24 PM

Same here, love the art deco theme. My family would never book in all the years we have been going, hubby said we could go because it was changing to marvel so I said no! However, I managed to convince them due to the deal and we get to go for Halloween whilst it's still art deco I can't wait. Still not going when it's marvel though 😁

Same here. Found a really nice deal and am able to scratch it of my hotel list before it closes and changes for ever

Very excited to stay here.

You are so fortunate to be able to do this!
I notice that there's special offers available for staying at the NY before it closes, 30% off or similar. Wishing I'd forseen that they might have done that. Maybe I'll bear it in mind in the event that they have offers for when DLH closes for a refurb!
