Guests at Disneyland's Paradise Pier Hotel can now enjoy a brand new "Finding Nemo"-themed water play area as the hotel continues its transformation into Pixar Place Hotel.

Pixar Place Hotel will be the first fully Pixar-themed hotel in the nation. Along with the announcement, Disney officials also released artist renderings of the hotel's guest rooms and lobby.

Guests entering the lobby will be greeted by a sculpture of the iconic Pixar Lamp balancing atop a ball, as well as a mobile of characters hanging above.

A new Great Maple restaurant opening in November will offer items such buttermilk fried chicken and maple bacon doughnuts. The restaurant will also open the new Sketch Pad Café grab-and-go coffee shop in the lobby and the Small Bytes rooftop pool bar.

The venue has been undergoing a transformation for months but has remained open.

Further details on the transformation can be found on the Disney Parks blog.

Disney is the parent company of this station.
