    The Disneyland Hotel complex has been a part of the Disneyland Resort since the park first opened in 1955.  Since that time the Hotel has undergone many expansions and renovations.  In many ways the Hotel is nothing like what it was when it first opened, but keeping up with the times is no stranger for…
