The Royal Guest rooms are located in the beautiful Magnolia Bend section of Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort. The 512 story themed rooms debuted in March, 2012 and are designed around the story of Princess Tiana from ”The Princess and the Frog” which was set in New Orleans. How fitting!
As the story goes, Princess Tiana invited some of her royal friends for a little vacation getaway. Each of the guests left behind cherished mementos to mark their visit. In these special rooms you’ll find items from classic Disney films like “Aladdin”, “Beauty and the Beast”, “The Little Mermaid”, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” and “Cinderella”.
The popular rooms are ornately decorated in majestic colors of gold and royal blue with crystal accents and rich, dark wood in a lavish design. Princes and Princesses are greeted with a personal note from Princess Tiana, welcoming you to her room. In true Disney style, themed details make the room unique with items such as:
- The bathroom faucet is in the shape of Genie’s lamp from Aladdin
- The shower curtain has snarfblatts and dinglehoppers from The Little Mermaid
- The luggage rack is in the shape of Sultan from Beauty and the Beast
- The wall border features a variety of Disney Princesses
Along the walls are pictures of Princesses that were “gifts” to Tiana from her friends. It’s interesting to note that the backdrops in all of the art are of Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort. Drapes and bedspreads on the queen-sized beds are intricately decorated and luxurious as well. The huge headboard is the “crowning jewel” of the room! When you turn it on, you’ll see a night image of the Louisiana bayou with a very cool “magical fireworks” show made with fiber- optic lights. Little ones will be entertained for hours! Of course, the room has a few “Hidden Mickey’s” mixed in too!
Princes and princesses of all ages will enjoy these luxurious Royal Rooms with a variety of gorgeous views at Port Orleans Riverside Resort at Walt Disney World.
