Originally Posted By Bolna That's wonderful news!! I love the labyrinth! It had a refurbishment last March when we were there and I was very glad that we got to see it on our first day just before it was being closed. I was impressed then that it seemed in much better shape than in previous visits. So hopefully it will look great for the 20th.

I actually think it's makes a fairly lack-lustre hotel more interesting. At some point Disney will have to work out where Radiator Springs actually is though!!!
Originally Posted By dagobert I also think that the rooms aren't too bad, but I don't like the metalic look of the wall next to the room door. However Disney should get rid of the Lightning and Matter poster, because I want Clint Eastwood back.

Originally Posted By dagobert I have never thought about that, but I guess that could be the reason. However I think that the main reason is to make it more family friendly. To be honest Santa Fe is not the most beautiful hotel at DLRP, but I always enjoyed staying there.

To me the revamped Santa Fe accommodations look cheap and remind me of one of those staged children's bedrooms from a Disney Channel sitcom. That hotel certainly wouldn't be my first choice of DLP hotels to stay in. Overall though, it's fantastic to see so much continuous TLC being administered to DLPR.
