Castle Painting/Decoration Removal Schedule

[CrashNet]

Do the characters on the castle that are gold real gold or are they fake gold?

They are fake. Otherwise, that is one mighty expensive decorating job, and I might have taken the Simba statue. :lol:

I've got a few questions about that room. Anyone have the answers?

Does anyone know if that room has a bathroom or would you have to hike it over to the restroom behind Pinocchio Village Haus?

Is there a window especially with a decent view so I can do some looking around? :lookaroun

And what's the time frame for checking in and checking to out? Could you get there before wishes or do you have to wait until the park closes?

Also, once you are in, are you stuck there? Or can you wander the park at all?

Is the pool heated?

How many people can stay with you in that room?

Is there a continental breakfast (ie., Cindy's)?

Where's the ice machine?

If I actually win and get to stay, what happens if I choose not to leave the next morning?

And, I know that it is premature to be asking but I wonder what will happen after this latest campaign is over. Will people still be able to stay there (for a price) beyond Million Dreams thing?

If anyone has the answers to any or all of these, I'd appreciate it. :wave:

There will probally be a bathroom in the suite, but there is also one located in Cindy's Royal Table.

Is there a window especially with a decent view so I can do some looking around? :lookaroun

I've heard that the window will overlook something, but not sure what, but it will most likely be 2-way glass, so you can see out, and nobody can see in.

And what's the time frame for checking in and checking to out? Could you get there before wishes or do you have to wait until the park closes?

No clue, probally as soon as it's done being cleaned.

Also, once you are in, are you stuck there? Or can you wander the park at all?

You'll most likely be stuck, as the park is less then magical after hours.

Is the pool heated?

:lol: The moat is not heated. :lol:

How many people can stay with you in that room?

They will select a family of four to fill the suite. So, 4 people total.

Is there a continental breakfast (ie., Cindy's)?

possibly.

Where's the ice machine?

In the restruant kitchen.

If I actually win and get to stay, what happens if I choose not to leave the next morning?

Disney police will get you

And, I know that it is premature to be asking but I wonder what will happen after this latest campaign is over. Will people still be able to stay there (for a price) beyond Million Dreams thing?

They will probally still let people stay, but there is no plans to ever charge huge amounts for it. So it would still be a contest.

If anyone has the answers to any or all of these, I'd appreciate it. :wave:

No Problem:wave:

the "bed chamber" u guys r talking about is the apartment that was built for walt but was never finished right?

 

[DisneyRoxMySox]

The Sleeping Beauty Castle in Paris is actually a VERY different castle from all the other Sleeping Beauty castles. HK and CA are supposed to be exact replicas I've heard.

The castle in Disneyland Paris is actaully Belle's. Not Sleeping Beauty's.

Also, yes the chamber is Walt's unfinished apartment. But many believe, including myself that the living room is now Cinderella's Royal Table.

EDIT: I also read that the Castle will be painted, they aren't going to paint it like Tokyo!! Are they!?!?!

Actually, the Disneyland Paris castle is Sleeping Beauty's. The name of the castle is Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant, which translates as "Sleeping Beauty's Castle". This probably created some confusion with the word Belle, which is French for beauty.

Also, Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant does in fact look a lot like the (post-transformation) castle from Beauty at the Beast. This very likely could be due to the fact that Beauty and the Beast was made around the same time that Disneyland Paris was being designed.

I stand corrected. Thanks, I think I have only seen Le Chateau de Belle...so I did assume it meant Belle's Castle.

P.S. I hope our Castle stays the same.

I translated it on a website and it came up with this...

The Castle of the Beautiful one to Wood Sleeping

so yea i think it is sleeping beauties castle:wave:

 

[stof911]

as i remember, wasnt the apartment, turned into an area for operators to answer phones and schedule reservations and all those other things

Yes, it has been all of those things and more through the years...now it is finally being used for its intended purpose.

 

[MickeyTigg]

Are they still going to do Cinderelabration after the celebration is over? Because if they do, the props for Cinderelabration might look funny, cosidering they have gold trimming and the rest of the castle wouldn't really.

No...Cinderellabration is ending in September.

 

[disneytati]

so....does this mean that the painting will be over and done with by dec 15, cause i would hate to have a funny looking castle in my pictures!!:xmas:

That's exactly what I was thinking.... I plan on going for Thanksgiving... but I guess the castle will only look funny at the very beginning.. by December it will already look good, right?

So is it getting the TDL treatment? Just a new coat of the classic blue and grey? :veryconfu

I loved the gold trim and will be sad to see them taken down. It will be nice to have the clock back though & the paint job (which hopefully is just repainting the current colors) will make the castle look better then ever. They can't just waste those statues though, I'm sure we'll see them somewhere.

My gosh that is perhaps the ugliest site I have ever seen. I would hate to see WDW's castle look like that. I think it looks even worse then the castle cake.

Ooohh... I love that! I mean, not the Stitch construction walls, but the castle itsself. It looks like a real castle - other pics I've seen show more detail, and the "brown" part actually looks like stone. I think it's pretty.
I like "our" castle the original way, too, but I wouldn't have a problem with the Tokyo paint job coming here...

 

[scottnj1966]

It will look so different once again.
Have some early pictures of the castle being fancied up.
It will be nice to see the clock again.

I actually like this look. This is only a guess, but they may have also repainted it like this in Tokyo as a testbed to see how people react to the new paintjob. They may be trying an update to see how people react, and then if the reaction is positive, update the castle in Florida.

Of course, they may also just be changing it up so the two castles are different.

 

[askmike1]

Also, someone above said the dark/light color scheme was closer to midieval times, but I don't see that being true. Doing a google image search for "castle" and "midieval castle", I do not see one that has a dark outerwall and light innerds. Also, two of the castles Cinderella Castle was based on (Chateau fort d'Usse and Chateau de Chenonceau) look nothing like the Tokyo paint scheme. So I simply don't see how this is more realistic.

 

[STGRhost]

Ok, I don't want to get into a debate about this...it's all opinion after all, and I can certainly see why people want the castle to stay the same. I think the look they're going for is more like this idea:
http://engr.calvin.edu/Events/interims/Europe02/16/imagepages/image18.htm See, the bottom is darker than the rest...

Anyway, it's a cartoon castle. It doesn't have to be accurate. I just think the Tokyo castle is pretty.:animwink:
