So, let’s jump right into the third Disneyland Paris reopening roundup! As the weather heats up in Marne-la-Vallée, the number of French Covid infections are going down, construction walls are being put up for repaving works in Fantasia Gardens, and a series of U-turns and technical difficulties in the Annual Pass booking system is making heads spin.

Seven Things That Make DLP Unique
There are Disney parks scattered across the globe and each one is special, but there are many reasons why Disneyland Paris really stands out. Here is a quick look at the top 7 things that we think make DLP extra-special. 1. The Music Lots of original music has been composed for the park…much of it in English! “Dancin’ a Catchy Rhythm” and “Magic Everywhere” are two particular favourites of the past. In March 2017, “Lost in the Magic” debuted with the new parade for the 25th anniversary. And who can forget “Chante,…

Disneyland Paris Hotel Review – Hôtel l’Elysée Val d’Europe
I’d seen the Hôtel l’Elysee before, but never gone in, let alone stayed there. So, I was very excited to stay there on our last visit to Disneyland Paris at the end of July, for 4 nights. It was whilst searching for a good deal for an offsite hotel that a special 25% off deal appeared on my phone for the Hôtel l’Elysee, and after some crowd sourced research via Twitter, I went for it.

Disneyland Paris Rumour: A new on site hotel coming – what should the theme be?
This latest tidbit has been broken by the folks at ED92 who today revealed plans for a new hotel, which is supposedly planned to be located opposite Hotel Santa Fe, the Cars themed hotel. The plans that are now public can be seen below: Whether it will happen and when it will happen we will just have to wait and see, but my interest lies in what theme it will have. The project is nicknamed New Wave, which makes me think of A-Ha, Simple Minds, Blondie and many other music acts…

Relais Spa Chessy Val d’Europe Aparthotel (Near Disneyland Paris) – Premium Double Room Review
On my recent trip to Disneyland Paris I was booked into Hotel New York on the Saturday night for the Frozen Summer Fun press weekend, but wanted to be there first thing in the morning so as not to miss anything. This meant a night in Val d’Europe and a chance to try out a different hotel. I actually looked at the Hipark Serris-Val d’Europe where I stayed in December 2013, but I was drawn to the Relais Spa by the promise of a large double bed in their Premium Double…
