Disney Resort Slashes All Hotel Prices by 40% After Disappointing Financial Results

Wait 5 sec.

Disney has slashed prices for hotels at one resort ahead of Black Friday.Financially, The Walt Disney Company has had a mixed year after falling short of Wall Street analysts’ expectations with flat revenues of $22.46 billion in its fourth quarter. Stock prices tumbled by nearly 8% after Disney shared its results, continuing a rough trend since Bob Iger returned as CEO.Credit: DisneyAttendance slipped by 1% at its domestic parks (Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort) in 2025, following an increase in 2024. At the same time, its Disney Experiences division (which includes the theme parks and Disney Cruise Line) earned a record-breaking $10 billion profit in fiscal 2025 through higher hotel rates, food and merchandise pricing, and targeted upcharges.Overseas, however, the parks have thrived. International parks contributed a 25% increase in operating income for the fourth quarter, to $299 million. Much of this growth was attributed to Disneyland Paris, but Hong Kong Disneyland has also made headlines for its performance in 2025.The park – which is currently celebrating its 20th anniversary – drew an all-time high of 7.7 million visitors in 2024, when it also experienced its highest-ever net profit of HK$838 million.Credit: DisneyBut this wasn’t always the case. The international resort has long stood out for its financial challenges. Hong Kong Disneyland struggled for years, reporting repeated losses and facing slow local attendance. Political uncertainty, strict travel measures, and recurrent COVID-19 closures only intensified the pressure.Hong Kong Disneyland has invested heavily to reverse its fortunes. New attractions – such as World of Frozen and the Stark Expo expansion of Tomorrowland – hotel upgrades, and expanded entertainment offerings have been part of a multiyear effort to attract both regional tourists and local guests. That strategy finally paid off, with Hong Kong Disneyland turning profitable again after nearly a decade of losses.Black Friday Promotion Revealed For Hong Kong DisneylandIts ongoing Black Friday hotel promotion signals the resort is pushing to build on that progress.Credit: Hong Kong Disneyland ResortDisney is using an aggressive 40% discount to pull forward 2026 demand, fill hotel rooms, and reinforce the resort’s recovery heading into the new year.Guests can choose from three onsite hotels.
