Charging to your room

[buttercup1982]

I understand you can get charge cards to your rooms. Does every hotel do this? :confused3Is it every shop and every 'Disney' restaurant that accepts them? What about the counter restaurants? Can you just pay the whole bill when you leave but still have your purchases from the shops beforehand?
Sorry for all the questions just not quite sure how it works, thanks:thumbsup2

Basically what you do is when you check in to you disney hotel, you give them your card details and they then give you a slip of paper in return. Then, when you pay for things, you pay for it with your paper slip. At checkout time, you then settle up the bill on your paper slip and this is then charged to your card (as one single purchase, although I believe there is a cap of something like £300, so if you spend £400 then that may go through as £300 + £100)

I'm fairly sure it's valid at counter service as well and certainly all the shops and disney restaurants accept it.

You can use your hotel id to charge your purchases. Reception will take a credit card imprint for an initial balance :)

Thank you, I think I will probably just take some cash and then use my card then. Who would have thought a holiday would take this much planning! Thank you everyone who has answered all my silly questions!:worship::worship:
