Soon you’ll be able to hang out with your favorite Cartoon Network characters on vacation.

The network will open a premier family lodging experience with Palace Entertainment in Central Pennsylvania, to open next summer.

Joining a global portfolio of Cartoon Network family experiences, the network’s first hotel will feature 165 rooms and immerse guests in the animation and antics of characters from shows such as Adventure Time, We Bare Bears, and The Powerpuff Girls. The property will entertain guests with a combination of character animation and creative technology upon the moment of arrival.

The nine-acre destination will feature an interactive lobby, a resort-style pool and water play zone, an outdoor amphitheater with an oversized movie screen, lawn games, fire pits, and more.

The experience continues inside, where each guest room and suite will feature an interchangeable show theming that can be customized around preferences to make each visit a new adventure. An indoor pool, game room, kids play area, and Cartoon Network store will also be open.

The Cartoon Network Hotel & Resort is centrally located along the Route 30 commercial stretch in Lancaster County, near the Dutch Wonderland Family Amusement Park.

Palace Entertainment currently owns and operates more than 20 amusement parks, water parks, and family entertainment centers across the United States and Australia. The Cartoon Network Hotel & Resort will be the first hotel of its kind and Palace’s first time partnering with an international brand on a lodging property.

The resort is currently under construction and is scheduled to open next summer.
