Legoland California has received permission from the City of Carlsbad Planning Commission to build the first Legoland Hotel in the US. However, the owners of Legoland still need permission from Carlsbad City Council and the California Coastal Commission to build the new hotel. This is not the first Legoland Hotel in the world, as there is currently one at Legoland Billund in Denmark. The hotel in Denmark was built in 1991 and has 176 rooms. The new hotel will be built on the carpark next to the entrance to Legoland and aims to turn the park into more than just a one-day attraction. The first phase of construction will contain 175 rooms, a 14,383-square-foot restaurant, 11,051-square-foot retail space, a 6,364-square-foot bar/lounge, an outdoor pool and a water play area. I can’t wait!!
