Alas, I don't think the Disney company is hip enough to go retro to a fairly recent earlier age, especially one (the 50's and 60's) so
reminiscent of Disneyland's youth (and more beloved era).
And, while it's always a matter of personal taste, the box buildings of the Hotel are ugly, as is most box architecture of the 60's. Some things were cool and some things were duds. Box architecture was a dud.
But unless they adopt the retro swank period as a theme, there is nothing to make the Disneyland Hotel into what's guest-expected as an integrated themed environment.
