We’re finally here in Tokyo Disney!
We are so thrilled to be getting a first look at Tokyo DisneySea‘s new land, Fantasy Springs, about a month before it opens to the public! But we didn’t get to just head in through the normal park gates, no — we got to enter through the new Fantasy Springs Hotel, giving us a first look!
The lobby area of this hotel is beyond gorgeous! It feels whimsical and exciting to us, while not feeling too overwhelming.

The story of Fantasy Springs is that there are magical springs that celebrate Disney stories in their pools of water (which is how it ties into Tokyo DisneySea!). One day, a duchess discovered the springs and decided to build her chateau in the area. Following the waters takes you to fantastical locations, and the hotel acts as that chateau!
Deluxe hotels are the most popular in Tokyo, meaning the demand is extremely high. Not only is the hotel itself beautiful, but if you book one of the rooms in the Deluxe Wing, you’ll have a balcony room that faces into the park!
While we didn’t get a look at the rooms today, we did get to see the gorgeous Fantasy Springs Restaurant, which was beyond stunning.
Tokyo Disney wanted guests to feel like you’re living in the story of Fantasy Springs when they check into the hotel, and we think with decor like this, that’s easy to do!
We can’t wait to explore this hotel fully in the coming days, and you know we’ll be bringing you along with us, so stay tuned to DFB!

Disclosure: In nearly all circumstances, Disney Food Blog writers and photographers pay full price for their own travel, hotel, food, beverage, and event tickets. We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Tokyo DisneySea to attend their media preview of Fantasy Springs. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy.
