Disney’s Hotel Santa Fe – Behind the scene

Vroom! Keep the engine humming we’re off to Route 66!

The hotel is the work of an American architect living in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He designed a hotel in the spirit of the American Southwest with a Mexican influence. It consists of several buildings in a style similar to the adobe houses of the pueblos of this region.

The entrance and the main parking lot of the hotel are reminiscent of the American drive-in theaters where you can watch a movie from your car. A gigantic canvas displays a portrait of Flash McQueen and Sally Carrera from the Pixar movie Cars (previously, it was Clint Eastwood who sat on the portrait).

This new decoration is a tribute to the New Generation of Disney-Pixar characters from Cars who travel along Route 66 – one of the main themes of the hotel.

Then the Disney’s Hotel Santa Fe was entirely themed on this seventh feature film in computer-generated animation from Pixar Studios Cars: released in 2006 and co-produced by Disney Studios, the film takes place in a world populated by anthropomorphic cars.

Discover this atypical hotel

If you like the world of Cars, you will love the warm and colorful atmosphere of this hotel. The best part? Even the tightest budgets will find their way there.

Personal tip: If you want even more comfort, ask for a room near the river, the place is quieter, or close to the hotel’s services!
