... That said, they already changed the designs once sometime in the 90s.

Do you know what has been changed? Anyone has pictures from before the change??

... And I don't think the rooms at Sequoia Lodge have friezes at the moment, or even printed shower curtains, so this should be interesting.

Only the Montana rooms have a mini bar:



All rooms have a shower curtain (although probably not all have one with the Sequoia Lodge logo on)...



Last but not least, the infamous deer lamp Puss wants so much:

Haha. It's sad how that deer is stuck in that blazing forest fire. See, if people go around these rooms looking for things to photograph, there may as well be some little things worth capturing.

By frieze I meant a wallpaper border, by the way, not a freezer. Here's an interesting one that can apparently be found at the Disney Vacation Club rooms of the Grand Californian:

Of course it wouldn't work at Sequoia Lodge at all.

Lol, my fault, sorry

Does anyone know if refurbishment work has started at the hotel yet?

[Laura678]

I don't know if it has started yet, but someone from Disney rang me ti explain that the lodges will be closed one by one for the refurb, and in the main building the floors will be closed one by one.

cool i was thinking about a dvd player my son said this morning "mum disneyland doesnt have tv does it you just watch the park!" meaning that usually the top ten places to go is on constantly!!

BUT I bet ALL of us have watched it more than once when staying there  /

If I had a pound for everytime I've seen that....

Anyway, back on topic I'm staying at the Sequoia in just under 4 weeks, and I'll be able to report back on whether there's any refurbs going on? I believe we're staying in the main building.

So was the new TV discussion a seperate topic to this?

I have just phoned and booked SL for June 15th-17th  
Got some info from them that others might find useful. From now until the end of April, the outer buildings are being refurbed therefore Montana rooms will still be in the main building.
From May onwards, though, Montana rooms will be the newly refurbed rooms in the outer buildings and standard rooms will be in the main building. I'm happy with this as it means guaranteed good location for the standard price.
Basically, outer buildings are getting refurbed first. If you pay the Montana premium you get location until April, and a better room after that.

Merged with the Sequoia Lodge refurb thread. Thanks for the info! :thumbs:

Thanks Anthony, sorry for starting an unnecessary thread! Hopefully this info will be of interest to this who want to know more about the progress of the refurb, and useful to those planning to stay in SL next year.

Don't apologise! ;-)

It's a surprising idea to basically flip the Montana/Standard rooms around. Is this being communicated to everyone who books? I'd imagine a lot of returning guests will be a bit surprised/confused to find themselves in the outer blocks, even if they have a nice refreshed room. Hopefully they'll see it as a plus.

no it is not being communicated to everyone. i have booked a montana room for july and nobody could tell me why it said main building on the website and lodges in the brochure and what i would actually be getting as a montana room, it got very confusing. i just hope that paying the extra is going to be worth it as i have never stayed at the SL before.

Some of what you've said loladelorean doesn't make much sense to me

From now until the end of April, the outer buildings are being refurbed therefore Montana rooms will still be in the main building.

All rooms in the main building are called Montana rooms (and lakeside), all rooms in the outside lodges are standard rooms, so I dont get what you mean by 'Montana rooms will STILL be in the main building'....?

From May onwards, though, Montana rooms will be the newly refurbed rooms in the outer buildings and standard rooms will be in the main building.

So from May, the standard cheaper rooms will be in the building, and the more expensive upgraded rooms will be in outside Lodges?? That doesn't make sense to me.

Thanks for letting us know though. Much appreciated.

It must only be a temorary measure while they renovate the main building? (moving the Montanna rooms)

[Martyn]

^ But the whole point of a Montana room was that they were in the main building (oh, and minibar ), so if they're not in the main building, thats kind of defying the point of them....?
