We recently stayed in one of the renovated “Mickey & Friends” deluxe rooms of Disney’s Hollywood Hotel at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort. The renovated rooms opened this spring featuring Art Deco artwork and architecture inspired by old Hollywood.
Mickey & Friends Deluxe Room at Disney’s Hollywood Hotel
Entryway
By the front door is a spacious open closet. It has a dark brown bench/shelf with gold-tone trim. The rod and hangars are also brown, with gold-tone metal hardware.
The artwork along the back of the closet features Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby Vanderquack from “DuckTales.” This may be the first time Webby appears in a Disney hotel. The group is peeking around a red curtain, as though looking backstage.
The safe and slippers are in cubbies below the bench. The slippers, a standard offering of Asian hotels, are red and feature golden silhouettes of Mickey and Minnie. The entryway and living space have fake light wood flooring.
Next to the closet is a small marble countertop with gray diamond-patterned walls. There is a Philips coffee maker and one outlet converter.
In the above photo, you can also see the hotel’s new retro movie ticket-inspired key cards.
Below the coffee-maker is the mini-fridge, which is pretty small (even for a mini-fridge). Mugs, Hollywood Hotel-branded coasters, and an ice bucket are on shelves on the side of this structure.
Restroom
Across from the closet is the bathroom, with a full-length mirror on the door. The frame is silver-tone and rounded at the top and bottom to channel Art Deco vibes.
The bathroom’s floor is white marble tile with the occasional black accent stripes, reflecting the entire room’s new black-and-white color palette. The toilet has a built-in fold-down kid’s seat.
The Art Deco-style vanity has a black and white marble top. There are cubbies for towels on the front sides. A small glass shelf is in the corner. Tall lights in silver sconces are on either side of a rectangular mirror with a black film strip-inspired frame.
The shower curtain is appropriately red with black silhouettes of Mickey and friends marching along the bottom. The exterior of the bathtub and the walls of the shower are gray marble tile.
We noticed all the facets of the shower except the tile and curtain are the same as those at Shanghai Disney Resort. We recently stayed in a Buzz Lightyear-themed Toy Story Hotel room at Shanghai Disney Resort.
The mounted Rituals amenities are conditioner, shampoo, and shower gel.
As of April 22 (Earth Day), Hong Kong Disneyland Resort no longer offers free amenities, as part of environmentally-friendly efforts. You can still buy those amenities, and here at Disney’s Hollywood Hotel, they come in a cute red clapboard-inspired wristlet. This set is HK$40 (about US$5.13).
“Disney’s Hollywood Hotel” is on the front and Goofy’s silhouette is on the back. There are enough amenities like toothbrushes and toothpaste inside for four people. The items aren’t thematic.
Bedroom
The bedroom is definitely a glow-up, especially considering most recent Disney hotel remodels are taking away theming. This is a perfect example of how theming and immersion can still be modern and clean.
For reference, above is what these rooms used to look like.
Climate controls are on the wall next to the beds. There is also a pair of standard Hong Kong outlets on that wall, which is a deep red.
The end table between the beds is a light-up “Now Showing” marquee. Note that there are no drawers in the table — in fact, there are no drawers in the room. There is plenty of space but not a lot of spots to hide things.
On top of the end table are various coupons and the phone. Above the table are outlets and light controls. There are two standard Hong Kong outlets and four USB outlets.
Another note when it comes to storage: they didn’t opt to lift the beds off the ground, making space for luggage to go underneath.
The beds have white subtly-striped sheets. The stark whiteness is offset by black accent pillows with golden silhouettes of Mickey and Minnie.
There is a built-in yellow-gold headboard that runs the length of this wall behind both beds.
Above the beds is a cute new mural with its own lighting. On either side of the mural are small film strip-inspired pillars.
The mural features a gray Art Deco background. Mickey and friends are pictured mostly wearing red with yellow as an accent color.
Their fashions and art styles are inspired by their 1930s appearances, although Hong Kong Disney has taken some liberties. The most obvious vintage style is Minnie’s skirt and flower hat.
Donald is also depicted in a style similar to his first appearance in “The Wise Little Hen.”
A TV is mounted on the white wall across from the beds.
Painted on the wall is a Mickey-branded stage light. A painted spotlight points down at a black film strip-inspired stool.
There are also real versions of that painted spotlight in the form of the room’s standing lamp. It’s black with two stage lights.
They are adorned with gold Mickey heads.
The chairs are yellow with black seats. They each have brown legs with gold-tone feet.
The top of the table between them resembles a golden film reel.
A circular mirror above the seats has another film reel-inspired frame.

Disney’s Hollywood Hotel also has a remodeled lobby. Marvel-themed rooms are coming soon.
