New Disney World hotel rooms to feature Disney Princess and wellness themes

in Disney Vacation Club, Entertainment, Hotel, The Walt Disney Company, Theme Parks, Walt Disney World

Vibrant Disney World hotel room featuring two beds, medieval-themed banners, enchanting Disney Princess artwork, and a TV displaying animated magic—an immersive space capturing the fairytale wonder of the parks while ensuring guests enjoy ultimate comfort and relaxation after a day of adventure.

Late last night on the Disney Parks Blog, two new “Specialty Room” types were announced to be coming to Walt Disney World.

At Disney’s Port Orleans Resort, 512 of its roughly 2,000 total rooms will become Royal Guest Rooms by March 2012. These rooms will feature decorations inspired by Disney Princess movies, including Princess Tiana from “The Princess and The Frog”, Belle from “Beauty and the Beast”, and Jasmine from “Aladdin”.

Step into a Disney Princess-inspired hotel room with two beds, dazzling blue and gold accents, and enchanting fantasy murals above each headboard. This magical retreat captures the immersive storytelling and signature charm of a Disney World resort, offering fans an overnight experience straight out of their favorite fairy tales.

Themed features will include ornate beds with fiber-optic headboards and gold accents, Princess artwork, and even “special mementos” from the Princesses themselves.

Take a closer look at the artwork for some of the features in these new Disney Princess rooms:

Fiber-optic headboard:
A Disney Princess Tiana-inspired wooden headboard, showcasing vibrant artwork of fireworks sparkling over the bayou, anchors the room with a signature touch reminiscent of Disney World resort magic, while a cozy bed sits in front—evoking the comfort and enchantment guests love at Disney’s themed hotels.

TV and artwork:
A framed painting of a couple waltzing captures the magical, storybook charm Disney fans love, set beside a wall filled with small framed photos of scenic attractions—bringing the spirit and ambiance of a Disney World hotel lobby to life.

Bathroom:
Dark blue curtains open to reveal a bathroom vanity with a mirror and blue-topped sink, evoking the immersive, luxurious feel of a Disney World resort suite—perfect for fans seeking that signature park magic even in their own home spa.

These rooms will become part of Disney’s existing line of Specialty Rooms. Pirate-themed hotel rooms are currently available at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort and new Specialty Rooms will included in Disne’s new Art of Animation Resort when it opens in May 2012.

Beyond animated themes, guests arriving to Walt Disney World in Fall 2011 can look to new “health and wellness suites” for peace and comfort. They’ll be featured on the 14th floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort and will feature bamboo flooring, 100-percent cotton linens, and non-allergenic wrapped mattresses.

Suite Living Room:
Contemporary lounge area styled in soothing neutral shades, featuring playful abstract artwork and a round coffee table reminiscent of an exclusive VIP suite at a top theme park resort, with a dining nook visible in the background. The overall ambiance channels spa-inspired relaxation and comfort, creating the perfect retreat after an exciting day of park adventures.

Concierge:
Hotel lobby inspired by the welcoming charm of Disney World resorts, featuring plush seating areas, sleek wooden tables, warm ambient lighting, and a wall-mounted TV showing lively park visuals—creating an immersive atmosphere for theme park fans.

These special suites are almost like private spas, with workout equipment and bathrooms containing rainwater showers and tea tree oils. A concierge lounge will offer organic fresh foods.

The new Specialty Rooms will be available for booking within a few months by mid-summer at www.waltdisneyworld.com or by calling 407-939-7429.
