HONG KONG - The Hong Kong Disneyland Resort will open its third hotel on April 30, with the theme of exploration and adventure, the park said here Tuesday.

Named Disney Explorer Lodge, the 750-room hotel will enable the guests to explore landscapes, art and cultures across Asia, South America, Africa and Oceania.

With its exotic theme and immersive storytelling, the new hotel will be an ideal getaway destination for local and other guests, Terruce Wang, vice president of sales and hotel operations at the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort told media during a preview tour.
