New Hotel Planned for the Disneyland Resort, a AAA Rated 4-Diamond Hotel

We have just learned that Disneyland officials have submitted plans to add a new high end hotel at the Disneyland Resort.  This hotel would be a AAA rated 4-Diamond Hotel, and according to the OC Register, it will be located on the North-End of the Downtown Disney parking lot (behind the Rainforest Cafe.)   The proposal is for a 700-room hotel and a new parking structure.  Concept art is below of the proposed hotel.  Construction on the hotel, according to the plan, would begin in 2018, with a slated opening of 2021.  Construction on the parking structure would begin in 2017.
