Shanghai Disney Enchanted Star Hotel Sets December 2026 Opening Date

Shanghai Disney Resort announced that its new Shanghai Disney Enchanted Star Hotel will open on December 16, 2026. The nine-story, 400-room property sits adjacent to the existing Shanghai Disneyland Hotel, overlooking Wishing Star Lake and the theme park itself. It stands as the resort’s smallest hotel to date.

Architecture at the new property draws inspiration from early 20th-century Shanghai through an Art Nouveau style. Guest rooms blend Disney storytelling with comfort, featuring curated artwork and subtle thematic details. When reservations launch, guests can choose from four specific room types: the Enchanted Star Deluxe Room, the Enchanted Star Deluxe Room with a park view, the Enchanted Star Dream Room, and the Enchanted Star Club Room. Additional room categories will become available as the opening date approaches.

Reservation Launch and Booking Channels

Bookings for initial room types open on November 6, 2026, starting at midnight, according to disneyexperiences.com. Travelers can secure reservations through the Shanghai Disney Resort Reservation Center, official resort booking channels, and authorized travel partners.

Guests staying at either the Shanghai Disneyland Hotel or the new Enchanted Star Hotel gain access to shared amenities across both properties via a dedicated connector path. The resort also recently installed three new crane sculptures in Wishing Star Lake near the new hotel to highlight local conservation stories.

Pools, Dining, and Future Expansion Plans

The hotel property houses indoor swimming facilities alongside the resort’s very first outdoor swimming pool, which will operate subject to local weather conditions. Multiple themed play areas cater to younger visitors, while the Enchanted Seasons Restaurant serves meals inspired by the changing calendar year.

Beyond the December opening, resort operators confirmed that a fourth Shanghai Disney Resort hotel is already in development. That upcoming property will sit closer to the main park entrance than any current hotel.
