Disney Just Opened the Cinderella Castle Suite

For years, the Cinderella Castle Suite at Walt Disney World has been one of the most exclusive and mysterious places on the planet. Guests have walked by it every day, wondering what it looks like inside—and now, for the first time in a long while, Disney is letting fans actually stay there.

As part of a brand-new campaign called “The Ultimate Fairytale Escape,” Disney has officially opened the doors to this one-of-a-kind suite for a special giveaway that benefits Make-A-Wish. The announcement has sent Disney fans into a frenzy, and it’s easy to see why.

A Room You Can’t Book—Ever

The Cinderella Castle Suite isn’t just rare; it’s practically legendary. Located inside the heart of Magic Kingdom, this space was originally built to host Walt Disney himself. Over the years, it’s become something of a holy grail for fans—a room that can’t be booked or rented at any price. Only a select few have ever had the honor of spending the night inside.

Now, one lucky winner (and up to three guests) will experience what most people only dream about. The suite is styled after a 17th-century French château, filled with regal details like hand-carved furniture, golden accents, and a clock forever frozen at 11:59. Guests will even enjoy breakfast at Cinderella’s Royal Table the next morning—a royal wake-up unlike any other.

What’s Included in the Fairytale

The “Ultimate Fairytale Escape” package includes round-trip airfare for up to four people, a one-night stay inside the castle, and a two-night stay at one of Disney’s Deluxe Resorts. The winner will also receive three-day Park Hopper tickets and a $500 Disney gift card to make the trip even sweeter.

Fans can enter by visiting castleforwishes.com, where they’ll find two ways to join in. You can enter for free, or you can make a donation to Make-A-Wish for extra entries. Every $10 donation earns 100 entries, and higher donation tiers go all the way up to 5,000 entries per person. The sweepstakes runs through February 4, 2026, with a winner drawn the very next day.

The Magic of Giving Back

This campaign isn’t just about pixie dust—it’s about purpose. Every donation supports Make-A-Wish, the nonprofit known for granting life-changing experiences for children with critical illnesses. For decades, Disney and Make-A-Wish have worked hand-in-hand to create moments of joy and hope for kids and their families.

By opening the Cinderella Castle Suite to fans, Disney is turning its most magical room into something even more powerful—a way to give back. It’s a rare moment when fantasy meets compassion, and for one lucky guest, that fantasy is about to come true.
