Disneyland Paris has shared more concept art and details about the dining locations at the refurbished Disneyland Hotel, which will reopen in January 2024. These include The Royal Banquet Buffet Restaurant and La Table de Lumière Table Service Restaurant.
As part of the large-scale royal transformation, all Disneyland Hotel restaurants, bar, and lounges have been reimagined to spotlight the rich diversity of Disney Animation royal stories. Steeped in the same powerful storytelling enjoyed in other parts of the hotel, these spaces will offer a unique gourmet dining experience infused with a French savoir-faire and the spirit of creativity inherent to all things Disney.
Royal Portraits Gallery at The Royal Banquet Buffet Restaurant (breakfast, lunch and dinner)
Inspired by the opulence of vast reception rooms found in every castle, The Royal Banquet invites guests to attend a royal feast amidst a gallery of paintings portraying numerous Disney royal families, such as King Triton and his 7 daughters from The Little Mermaid, the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, Prince John from Robin Hood or even Kronk from The Emperor’s New Groove. Guests will choose from dishes influenced by the diverse cultures that inspired many beloved Disney stories like Spicy Cajun Shrimp dish that will pay tribute to Tiana’s native Louisiana.
And for those with hearty appetites, a sumptuous oyster and seafood bar and meat carving stand will
be on hand, filled with premium products. Young guests will also be in for a treat with a full dedicated variety of products such as a personalized dessert that they can customize themselves.
To top off this king and queen-worthy fare, The Royal Banquet will give guests the chance to meet and dine at lunch and dinner with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and their friends(3) decked out in their finest new and exclusive regal attire. Having received an invitation to join a festive banquet celebrating the royal families from across the lands, these very special attendees will enchant guests from far and wide, posing for photos and taking part in interactive moments for future treasured memories.
Fine Dining at La Table de Lumière Table Service Restaurant (dinner*)
At La Table de Lumière, guests will enjoy table service dinner in a space paying homage to the Beauty and the Beast ballroom scene, which itself was inspired by the Hall of Mirrors in Versailles Castle. Elegant mirrors and crystal add sparkle to an elegant atmosphere finished off with distinguished tableware including rose-emblazoned china and thorn-themed napkin rings. The menu will feature French fine dining using local, gourmet delicacies such as roses from Provins, and will serve sea treasures like sole fished off the coast of France or European lobster with white cabbage and Meaux mustard remoulade.
Guests craving quality meat will delight in the open rotisserie while those looking for other options will discover a wide variety of plant-based options such as a delicate mushroom velouté sourdough bread croutons and roasted hazelnut served with pepper-spiked Isigny cream, famous French dairy product used in several recipes as a wink to Walt “D’Isigny” ancestors in Normandy. Also on the menu, a dish of quinoa with broad beans and morels, vegetable juice with red peppers and pomegranate seeds.
Additionally, a large selection of wine and champagne will pair perfectly with the dishes created by the hotel’s chefs. For dessert, guests can end their gourmet experience with delicacies paying tribute to royal Disney stories while a celebration cake inspired by Belle’s rose will mark special occasions.
At Table de Lumière, guests are invited to enjoy their regal meal in the company of Royal Disney Couples (3)
including Belle and her Prince (Beauty and the Beast), Aurora and Philip (Sleeping Beauty) or Tiana and Naveen (Princess and the Frog) in all-new exclusive regalia to meet and exchange in a grand setting for an interactive and unforgettable experience.

The Deluxe Lounge will welcome guests staying in Deluxe Rooms, offering an enticing view of Fantasia Gardens for peaceful buffet breakfasts and complimentary afternoon sweet and salty snacks.
Reserved for guests staying in Castle Club rooms and suites, the Castle Club Lounge delivers a breathtaking view of Sleeping Beauty Castle and has refined, bright décor inspired by several Disney castle interiors and elegant engravings designed by the Walt Disney Imagineering Paris teams and handmade using ancestral techniques.
