Shanghai Disney Previews Enchanted Star Hotel Rooms

Shanghai Disney Resort's third hotel now has a face. The resort unveiled the interiors of the Shanghai Disney Enchanted Star Hotel on November 10, 2026, five weeks before the 400-room property opens on December 16, 2026, on the shore of Wishing Star Lake, adjacent to the Shanghai Disneyland Hotel. It's a premium, family-focused building in Art Nouveau dress, themed throughout to Disney Animation, and it's built to turn a park day into a multi-day stay.

The booking facts come first. Reservations opened on November 6, 2026, for four room types: the Enchanted Star Deluxe Room, the Deluxe Room with Park View, the Dream Room and the Club Room, sold through the resort's reservation center, its official channels and authorized travel partners. More room types are released closer to opening. The full count is 400 rooms and suites, including Zootopia and Duffy and Friends themed suites, Dream Rooms with fold-down beds, and Club rooms with access to the Celestial Club lounge. Some of the in-room wall art animates when it's activated.

The design runs on the wishing star. A spiraling chandelier falls like stardust over the lobby's Wishing Star, and an expansive arched window frames the Enchanted Storybook Castle across the lake. Headboard art shows Tinker Bell flying over Shanghai Disneyland and Wishing Star Lake. A dedicated connector links the building to the Shanghai Disneyland Hotel next door, so guests of either can use both properties' recreation, and the Wishing Star Park dock has been expanded for the ferry traffic the second lakeside hotel will add, with three crane sculptures installed by the dock and on the lake.

The recreation list carries a resort first. Garden's Wish Pool is the first outdoor pool in the Shanghai Disney hotel portfolio, operating in select seasons, and it sits alongside an indoor pool, a Finding Nemo water-play area and a Winnie the Pooh playhouse. Five restaurant concepts round out the building. The arithmetic of the resort changes with it: Enchanted Star's 400 rooms join the 420 at Shanghai Disneyland Hotel and 795 at Toy Story Hotel, for 1,615 rooms on site.

For travelers, the logistics anchor is unchanged. Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) is the resort's main long-haul gateway, with Hongqiao (SHA) handling mostly domestic and regional flights. December 16 openings at a flagship resort sell hard, and the phased room release means the themed suites are the last inventory to appear. Anyone set on a Zootopia room for opening week is watching the wrong list; the four types on sale now are the opening inventory, and the resort says the rest follows before the doors open.

The hotel also answers a capacity question the resort created for itself. A decade in, Shanghai Disney Resort draws multi-day crowds with two hotels and 1,215 rooms between them, the smallest hotel base of any Disney resort of its scale. Enchanted Star lifts that base by a third in one opening, and it does it at the premium end, beside the flagship property rather than out by the parking structures. The fourth hotel the resort announced in June 2026, planned near the park's main entrance, has no date yet. Until it does, Enchanted Star is the whole of the resort's room growth, and December 16 is when the market finds out how much of it the opening weeks can fill.
