Royal greetings. Welcome to planDisney. I see that you are planning a magical vacation for this coming April. Ah, what a beautiful time to visit. Spring will be in the air, and more than likely, the
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival will be in full bloom.
The new royal rooms at
Port Orleans Riverside may be dreamy like Aurora, regal like Cinderella, sophisticated like Belle, or charming like Tiana. I can't wait to see what their new personality and design will look like. More importantly, my two granddaughters are eagerly looking forward to discovering the magical new touches these rooms will offer.
To jump right to your question, unfortunately, at this time, we haven't been able to peek behind the royal curtain to sneak a peek at the new refurbished decor. There have been recent room updates at Disney's Port Orleans French Quarter, and I was very impressed with their
new look. Personally, Tiana is my favorite princess, so I love the little nods to her that have been incorporated. As much as I wish I could give you a clear answer, I think we will both have to wait just a little bit longer. But, like Tiana would say, I think we're "almost there." When the magic makers at the Resort hotel finish their work, we should get our first look on the
Disney Parks Blog, so you'll want to keep an eye there for that big announcement.
As we await the big reveal, we will have to dream about Tiana's favorite beignets at
Scat Cat's Club - Café! Oh my goodness, if you haven't tried the Mickey-shaped Beignets Sundae, I highly recommend it! I never miss enjoying that treat when I'm at Port Orleans!
Let us know if we can help you with any other questions as you plan for your spring vacation. We'll be here ready to help.
Wishing you blue skies and sunshine!
