With the opening of Fantasy Springs, Tokyo DisneySea added another in-park hotel. According to the story of Fantasy Springs, a Duchess who discovered the land constructed the Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs Hotel as a palace for herself and her friends. The hotel has a dedicated entrance into the new land and is home to Fantasy Springs Gifts.
There are two wings of the hotel. The more expensive Grand Chateau has “luxury” rooms that look over the park. We stayed in the Fantasy Chateau, which is cheaper but still advertised as a deluxe experience. It’s almost impossible to get a reservation at the Fantasy Springs Hotel right now but we managed to snag a Fantasy Chateau entrance side superior alcove room.
Fantasy Chateau Entrance Side Superior Alcove Room Tour
Fantasy Chateau features flora and fauna motifs. A painting outside our room featured Snow White at a lake with colorful flowers and creatures around her. The doors and walls feature curving Art Nouveau lines.
The room number plaques are blue butterflies with gold borders. They’re perched on golden flowers that surround the peephole.
Guests get two door hangers. One is blue and reads, “Please Do Not Disturb.” The other is pink and reads, “Please Make Up Room.” Both have gold lettering and insect patterns.
Entryway
We found this entryway to be considerably wider than those at other Tokyo Disney Resort hotels. We’ve had trouble getting bags through in the past, but that’s not a problem at the Fantasy Springs Hotel.
The room’s carpet is designed to look like vines, with pink flowers curling across the floor.
In the entryway is a beautiful blue wood wardrobe. On the left side is a mirror with a gold frame. A similar gold frame is on the doors on the right side, around two curved handles.
The wardrobe features paintings ostensibly done by Rapunzel. She’s painted natural elements like leaves and stylish fashions.
There are images of her at various ages with different long lengths of hair.
The closet is a good size with a shelf and plenty of nice wood hangars. It has an automatic light. This is where you’ll find a spare pillow, shoehorn, and brush.
This is also where the complimentary slippers are stored. The youth slippers have a green, orange, and purple Fantasy Springs pattern. Unfortunately, the adult slippers don’t feature a Fantasy Springs design. They have a purple image of Mickey in a top hat. The same image is on the slippers of other Tokyo Disney Resort hotels, just in a different color.
Next to the wardrobe is a vanity with a deep marble counter.
There’s a beautiful wooden mirror with carved flowers.
A blue stool slides under the counter. There’s a trash can here, too.
On the left side are a two-prong outlet, USB outlet, and LAN outlet.
Attached to the vanity is a cabinet with a slightly taller countertop. Like much of the architecture, the cabinet features Art Nouveau-style curves. It has bronze handles on the door and drawer.
Behind the door is a mini-fridge. You get bottles of water.
The drawer houses glasses, teacups, and saucers. The tea set is not branded, which we found weird because they sell a Fantasy Springs tea set.
Sitting on a silver tray is a tea kettle and an ice bucket.
There’s another two-prong outlet on this side of the wall and a dimmer.
Main Space
The Art Nouveau style makes us feel like we’re sleeping in the atrium of the Disney Fantasy cruise ship. There’s a light pink flower-patterned wallpaper.
The bed runners are blue with a similar pattern to the carpet: green vines with pink and purple flowers.
The headboards have a plush section with a large, curved wooden frame. A bundle of pink flowers and green leaves is carved into part of the headboard.
Pascal is hiding among the flowers on one of the headboards.
Another pretty mirror hangs on the wall to the side of the beds. We don’t understand the purpose of this mirror since it’s not very practical to use. It’s presumably supposed to make the room feel bigger, but it’s kind of small for that, and we would prefer a piece of art here.
The thermostat is next to this mirror.
The end table between the beds has a marble top and a curved wooden alcove. The drawer’s handle is shaped like a feather. The drawer houses a flashlight in case of earthquakes and complimentary postcards featuring various Fantasy Springs Hotel art.
The phone is decorated with the hotel wordmark and white filigree. The notepad’s cover is also debossed with the logo.
It has custom stationery inside with the hotel logo in purple at the top. The pen is not branded.
This is a modern hotel where they spared no expense but of course, the alarm clock still looks like it’s from 1987.
The end table has a high wooden back with built-in USB and two-prong outlets on each side.
The key cards are white with the hotel’s wordmark in purple. They come in a card-sized folder featuring artwork of the hotel with Mickey and Minnie. Hotel guests also get a proof of stay pass they need to show to enter the hotel, as Tokyo Disney Resort is not currently allowing other guests to visit.
A trundle bed rolls out from under the bed nearest the window. It has the same mattress as the regular beds.
The hotel does provide instructions for the trundle.
Vines with purple and pink flowers are also on the wall close to the window. More flowers appear to be floating through the air over the beds. The silhouettes of Bambi, Thumper, and Flower are at the bottom of the wall.
What puts the “alcove” in “superior alcove room” is the space across from the beds.
This alcove has white wood molding with an accent on the left. It has a built-in bed that’s pretty wide.
Above the bed is a gorgeous Rapunzel-inspired decal. Her yellow hair wraps around a Corona sun. There are more natural elements and animals.
The bed can also of course be used as a couch. It has a plum-colored cover, two red velvet square pillows, and two gray and purple bolster pillows.
There are two storage drawers underneath the alcove bed. Extra bedding is in these drawers.
The TV is in another beautiful wacky Art Nouveau frame. The wifi name and password are displayed on-screen. The TV also provides access to service requests, hotel information, restaurant guides, and billing details/checkout.
This is a newer Panasonic TV with streaming services available.
The dresser has three shallow but wide drawers with curved bronze handles.
The safe is housed in the large drawer on the left.
Tokyo Disney Resort provided pajamas for guests to wear but not keep (but you can keep the slippers). These feature butterflies.
The room’s light fixtures resemble flowers. They have frosted white glass on golden metal supports.
Two comfy green chairs sit in front of the window. A flower-shaped table is between them. On the table are reusable bags.
Our window overlooked the hotel’s entrance, where there are two sets of rockwork and water features similar to those in the park. We had a good view of the “Mickey and the Beanstalk” rocks. We could also see Bayside Station and the Monorail.
There’s a lilac purple ceiling with white molding. The room is modern and clean but still colorful — unlike Walt Disney World Resort hotel rooms. It proves it’s possible to have a themed room that’s not gaudy.
Bathroom
The bathroom is located off the entryway, across from the wardrobe. There’s a sliding door that does not lock leading into the vanity space.
A large round mirror features glowing floral motifs.
Ray from “The Princess and the Frog is at the top of the mirror design.
There are various branded amenities you get to take home. There’s a purple plastic cup featuring Mickey and Minnie in their Fantasy Springs Hotel outfits. They’re also pictured on the “amenity kit,” which includes Q-tips. Mickey and the hotel are on the toothbrush kit.
The cup also features the hotel’s wordmark in gold. The packaging says, “Take me home with you!”
More amenities are in a drawer with the hairdryer. This is where we found the hairbrush and youth toothbrush kit.
The underside of the vanity features more curving lines, and the drawer is oddly shaped to blend in. There is a step stool and a rolling cart.
The towels are branded with the “FS” logo.
Louis from “The Princess and the Frog” is on the window of the shower door.
A tree hangs over him and fireflies float around him. The same art is on the other side of the window.
As is standard in Japan, the shower is a room. The tub is against one wall while the rest of the space is the shower. It has a green tiled floor.
Body soap, conditioner, and shampoo bottles are mounted on the wall. There’s a soap dish although they don’t offer bars of soap.
Next to the shower products are the controls and the detachable showerhead. There’s another stool and a bowl for washing your hair.
Another hook for the showerhead is higher up on the wall.
Another soap dish is over the tub. It’s a good-sized tub, with bars for anyone who needs help getting in and out.
A floral applique with a dragonfly is above the tub.
There are more Fantasy Springs towels on a rack. There’s also a clothesline to pull across the room for drying swimsuits and other clothing.
Tokyo Disney Resort asks that you reuse towels. If you want them washed, place them in the tub when you leave the room.
Last is the toilet. It’s behind a locking door on the other side of the bathroom. The blue-green tile continues into this room.
The wallpaper here is purple and textured. There is no art, but at least there’s color. It’s a Japanese toilet with a built-in bidet. It is a different model from the other hotels.
Controls are on the wall above the toilet paper.
We really love this room. It will especially appeal to fans of “Tangled” or Art Nouveau. It’s on the same level of quality as Hotel MiraCosta and Tokyo Disneyland Hotel.
