1. Treasure Island (1950)

We stayed in the Grand Chateau Alcove Room on the 5th floor . The room is comfortable and is kinda big ,Also, our room faced the frozen kingdom which the view is great and magnificent.

Does Fantasy Springs Grand Chateau have room service?

Yes, Grand Chateau has room service.

Let’s talk about the services of the hotel . The cast member would serve the welcome drink and treats in the room and they were delicious .

We had ordered the room service breakfast from La Libellule and I would recommend you to try it because it is cheaper than you eat in the restaurant and the food is yummy too.

Moreover , the room will include 8 Disney Premier access pass and 4 show viewing pass which you could enjoy the ride from the Disney premier access plan too. Special entrance in Fantasy Springs would be provided when you live there . It’s convenient because you can go back to your room in few mins.

Grand cheatau would send a survey to ask your visiting purpose and the request from your trip which I think is kinda warm.

I would recommend you to try the Grand Chateau because you can get a good service from the cast members and you can enjoy a well-planned trip which you don’t need to worry about the quota of show and the ride .

Enjoy the journey in Tokyo Disney Resort

This question was asked in comments:

How much did it cost to stay in the Grand Chateau?

The room in the beginning of June would be ¥315000 and the price would change depending on the time

I also lived in the fantasy springs hotel in the rose court room for vacation package , it costs near ¥283,000 .

Disneyland Parades: The general best spot is here at the transition from Fantasy Land to Critter Country. There is a slight upslope, so even if you are standing behind 10 rows of people because you arrived only 10 minutes before the parade starts, you should still get a good view of the parade.

Where does the Tokyo Disneyland parade start from?

The transition from Fantasy Land to Critter Country is also at the starting of the parade route, which means you get to finish the parade before the rest of the park, and get back on rides while the queue times are lower because everyone is still watching the parade. This spot also has the back of the Disney castle in the background, which makes for a nice backdrop.

Where can I eat and see the Tokyo Disney Parades?

The next best spot if you’re eating is Captain Hook’s Galley. There’s a lot of green and lamp-posts and stuff, so it’s not the best, but you could sit at a table and munch away while the parade goes by and if your feet are killing you, this really isn’t a bad idea at all.
