We have been in the Suite twice, via tours held during the D23 Magic & Merriment Event.
CINDERELLA DISNEY FULL
Lavishly adorned with the full royal treatment, its “Beauty-Per-Square-Foot” Ratio is through the roof. To call the Castle Suite opulent would be an understatement. These tours are conducted by a Walt Disney World Guest Relations Cast Member–the same type of Cast Member who would serve as the overnight concierge for celebrities and giveaway winners who would stay in the Suite. In recent years, there have been a few tours of the Cinderella Castle Suite offered. Let’s start our photo tour of the Cinderella Castle Suite! The photos that follow throughout this post are some of our unique photos from our visits to the Cinderella Castle Suite. In just a few short years, it has attained the cult-like status of exclusive Club 33 restaurant or Walt’s Apartment in Disneyland, and rightfully so, as it’s arguably more exclusive than either of those locations. Along the way, this fan-desire has been spurred by Disney-forum accounts from the Suite by lucky guests who won stays in the Suite, podcast details of the Suite from travel agents, and everyone’s favorite, Samantha Brown Travel Channel special tours of the Suite. Since, the Cinderella Castle Suite has become the dream experience for some Disney fans. During this contest, it was given away as a grand prize of sorts to one lucky family each day. The Cinderella Castle Suite can sleep up to six people, and opened for the Year of a Million Dreams, a promotional campaign that ran over decade ago (hard to believe it’s been that long!). It was converted by Walt Disney Imagineering, which completely decorated and upholstered the space as a ‘royal bedchamber’ in the process. It was pretty much the polar opposite, as the space that’s now Cinderella Castle Suite was originally a multi-purpose utility space. When Magic Kingdom opened and Cinderella Castle debuted in 1971, this was not built as a hotel room. (See what price those fetched in How Much Does a Night in the Cinderella Castle Suite Cost?) Now, let’s take a look inside and share some history of the Cinderella Castle Suite… It’s such a lavish and regal room, but about the only use it has received recently is for occasional auction winners. Our hope is that this new excitement will spark Disney to do something with the Cinderella Castle Suite. We’ve since been receiving a lot of questions about the royal room, which has largely gone unused by Walt Disney World for the last decade. Recently, there has been renewed interest in the Cinderella Castle Suite thanks to this viral video on the Disney Parks TikTok account, which has garnered 3 million views and counting. As with Snow White and other classic animated features, the studio held periodic re-releases of Cinderella in 1957, 1965, 1973, 19, keeping its popularity alive among new generations of moviegoers.This photo tour showcases our visits to the Cinderella Castle Suite in Magic Kingdom–the most exclusive hotel room at Walt Disney World, and a popular spot for celebrities and what used to be an exclusive prize for promotional giveaway winners. Six years in the making, Cinderella became one of Disney’s best-loved films and one of the highest-grossing features of 1950. Along the way to its happy ending–a Disney trademark–the film featured lively animation sequences and enduring songs like “A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes” and the Oscar-nominated “Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo.”
As in Snow White, Cinderella gets the help of a few friends–in this case singing mice and birds as well as a Fairy Godmother–to escape the prison of her servitude and win the heart of Prince Charming. The film’s immediate source was Charles Perrault’s French version of the fairy tale, which tells the story of a young girl whose father dies, leaving her at the mercy of her oppressive stepmother and two unsympathetic stepsisters.
Cinderella, based on another Brothers Grimm fairy tale, was chosen for its similarity to the Snow White story.
