With its pastel pink facade, wings and French gardens, the Dream Castle hotel certainly lives up to its name. Located in Magny-le-Hongre, like most Disney hotels, this 4-star hotel combines comfort, wide-open spaces and kid-friendly activities: enough to keep the kids occupied before, after or even without a trip to Disneyland.

Bringing the whole family? Opt for one of the family rooms, which can accommodate up to 4 people, with a king-size bed and bunk beds for children, and are adapted for people with reduced mobility. If you're taking your teenagers with you, perhaps you'd prefer the Double Queen rooms, which can accommodate up to 4 adults with two Queen-size beds in an enlarged room, or make your stay a memorable one by opting for the Standard Suite, which can accommodate up to 5 people, ideal for large families.

For lovers, the double rooms are ideal or, if you really want to enjoy a romantic evening, opt for the Junior Suite, perfect for couples with its king-size bed, spacious living area and huge bathroom. For each room, high-speed WiFi is included, the bathroom has a bathtub and hairdryer, a TV is on site with free children's channels, you can make yourself a cup of coffee or tea (coffee machine, kettle and capsules provided) and in summer, you can even set the air conditioning.

Once you've dropped off your belongings, the little ones are likely to head straight for the Enchanted Forest, theacrobatic playground for 5-12 year-olds, all made of wood and located on the first floor. Climbing walls, acrobatic courses, nets: there's something for all ages, and the area is open all day, from 9am to 10pm. For older kids, the arcade is open all day to everyone, at no extra charge: for teens who don't want to swim, there's something to keep them busy!

A little further on, you'll find the Dragon Lagoon indoor pool, with its slide, paddling pool and Jacuzzi, so the whole family can enjoy a swim! For adults (aged 18 and over), thewellness area adjoining the indoor pool also includes a hammam and sauna (included in the room rate): ideal if you're coming with friends or loved ones, or if you've got someone to look after the kids while you go off to recharge your batteries. The spa also offers massages and treatments, this time in addition to the room rate. In summer, the outdoor pool opens its doors to all Dream Castle Hotel residents : on a hot day, there's nothing better than taking a dip (or a splash, we'll let you choose) in the water!

Before taking a dip, there's nothing like a good workout, if you've got any energy left after your trip or a day of running around Disneyland: the fitness studio has everything you need for a complete workout, with cardio machines (treadmill, elliptical), weights, bars and strengthening machines, as well as exercise mats. Between meals, if you fancy a snack, the Astrolab bar in the hotel lobby offers cookies, muffins, hot drinks for a snack or a whole menu of drinks to sip on, for refreshment or a drink.

At the Dream Castle, you can take a stroll through the corridors decorated with gilded tapestries (or distorting mirrors), relax on the sofas in the lobby or stroll through the French gardens, sip coffee or take a deep breath of fresh air.

In the evening, head to the Rôtisserie from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. for dinner. On the menu: an all-you-can-eat continental buffet, with a starter buffet (shellfish, salads, cold meats, pâté en croûte), a hot spot with cooked dishes (homemade chicken nuggets, French fries, vegetables, fish) and a cheese buffet.

Don't miss the unmissable Rôtisserie buffet, which gives the restaurant its name, with the chef's roast chicken spinning in front of your eyes, pieces of grilled meat, knife-grilled sausage...and pommes grenaille as a side dish. Finally, if you've got room to spare, the dessert buffet includes dozens of proposals, with chocolate fondant, lemon tart, black forest, doughnuts, candies, cake, fruit tarts... Hot drinks are also available throughout the meal. This all-you-can-eat dinner costs €35 per adult, €17 per child aged 3 to 11 (free for children under 3). If you prefer to stay in your room, room service is also available.

After a good night's sleep, head to Bosquet Gourmand, the restaurant where you can have a good breakfast before starting the day! The price of breakfast is included in your room reservation, and here too you can enjoy an all-you-can-eat buffet, served from 7am to 10:30am. For children, there's a Kids Corner with pancakes, popcorn, Nutella at the pump, cereals... Otherwise, you'll find hot savory dishes, such as white beans with tomato sauce, turkey sausages, cold cuts, various types of bread (sandwich, baguette, brioche), mini-viennoiseries... With unlimited hot drinks, fruit juices and water. After breakfast, it's time to take the free shuttle to DisneyLand and Disney Village, and spend another day living the life of a real-life princess.
