Have you ever yearned to dine elegantly in a gorgeous, grand dining room aboard a majestic ocean liner? This is your chance. On the Disney Dream, the grandest dining room is known as Royal Palace. It is located next to the ships’ breathtaking lobby atrium on deck 3 midship and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast and lunch have open seating—just show up when and where you like.

Decor—Royal Palace is an elegant dining room with French accents influenced by Disney’s Cinderella. Servers wear the formal, military-style dress seen at Cinderella’s Royal Ball. Paintings of the Disney Princesses line the walls, and the many decorative accents, from chair-back carvings to marble-inlaid floors refer to Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Beauty and the Beast.

Dinner Dress—Unless the evening is formal, semi-formal/dress-up, or “pirate” (see 296 and 659), dress is cruise casual: nice slacks and collared shirts for men and dresses/pantsuits for women. No shorts, please.

Our Review—The elegant setting is the restaurant’s best feature. This is the only restaurant offering full table service at breakfast and lunch on the Dream. The table service breakfast here is good, but service is slow. Lunch is enjoyable, but portions may seem small. Breakfast and lunch selections are limited compared to the buffets. The extra elegance at dinner is a treat, and the Continental-style meals are finely prepared. This is our favorite rotational dining rooms on the Dream.
