Hilton New York Times Square Unveils LION KING’s Royal Suite

Hilton New York Times Square has announced the continuation of their magical partnership with Disney Theatrical Group with the debut of THE LION KING’s Royal Suite.

Thoughtfully curated by Broadway’s top dressing room designer for its most legendary stars,  Devin Sparkles Design, the immersive suite draws inspiration from Disney’s award-winning THE LION KING on Broadway. 

Guests who just can’t wait to be king will feel atop Pride Rock from the comfort of THE LION KING’s Royal Suite at Hilton New York Times Square, conveniently located three blocks away from Minskoff Theatre where guests can see the magic come to life on Broadway.

Throughout the suite, Pan-Asian-inspired woven baskets adorn the walls, bird puppets fly from the ceiling and hand-painted patterned chairs provide a soft place for guests to land while taking in framed costume sketches from the musical throughout the suite.

In the bathroom, guests will find a lush, vibrant jungle oasis with artificial plants, contrasted by the warm Serengeti elements in the room. 

THE LION KING’s Royal Suite experience package includes:

• One round of two Hakuna Manhattan cocktails or two Serengeti Sunrise mocktails

• A wake-up call from the Broadway musical’s own Rafiki, Tshidi Manye

• A thematic sleep mask, specialty memento item – a one-of-a-kind autographed costume rendering from one of the musical’s actors, and complimentary Disney’s THE LION KING on Broadway merchandise
