Post Your Royal Pacific Room Assignment Here!



that is how you know what view you will have in advance.

front desk, if you call them, can also tell you the view from the room.
since you don't know that at this point, you could call the front desk and ask them which rooms faces the pool.

How soon in advance do you think they will assign a room? One day? Two? Many hotels won't tell you the room assignment until you arrive. Does RP assign in advance?

Room assignments are done 5-7 days out. They cannot tell you until your room is ready the day you check in. Even if you check in early and your room is not ready. They will call or text you the room number when it's ready. Then you can go directly to the room. If you are on club your room key will then work in the elevator to access floor 7.
 
Hi, I was hoping for some advice please. In your opinion, do you think that your room allocation is determined by the duration of your stay and also if you've booked through a travel company and not with the hotel directly? The reason I'm asking is that we stayed in 2013 for 2 weeks (booked through a UK travel company) and were assigned a room in tower 3, ground level, right at the end of the corridor - great for accessing the water taxi but directly above a generator or some kind of noisy machinery. The room itself was fine, not much of a view though, some kind of tin roof from what I remember. Do you think that the more desirable rooms are kept for short stay guests who have maybe booked directly?

We're going back again in June of this year, so I'm planning on calling the hotel 2 weeks before and then again a few days before we arrive to ask if we can request a particular room - 1625 looks lovely. Do you think that's the best idea?

Thank you!
 
Yes call directly and request. I don't think they put you there purposely but if we are there for a length of time I always request something a bit nicer if they can. If I'm there one night or 2 I could care less.

Thank you - I'll definitely do that!

Well, quick update on the room we were allocated. I had e-mailed a couple of weeks in advance of our stay to request a tower one room with park view. I got a nice reply saying that they had made a note and would track our arrival to make sure we were well looked after - we arrived, checked in and were given a room in tower one but no park view, which was fine. But, yet again we were allocated the very last room at the end of the hall - really weird.. Maybe for guests staying for a longer duration (2 weeks in our case) they give you a quieter location - not as many people passing by your door?.. Only reason I can think of.

It turned out the bathroom had quite a bad leek, so the carpet at the entrance to the room was sodden, meaning we had to jump over the wet patch to get in or out of our room. We had notified reception but due to nothing being done, had to speak to them again a few days later. They offered to move us to a room on a higher floor in the same location but the other side of the corridor - again the very last room. I didn't really want the upheaval of having to re pack so asked if they could try drying off the carpet with a blower and maybe send someone to have a look to see if the leek was easily fixed - turned out it wasn't and they were going to have to get the contractors in. We were moved up to floor 5 to a room only a few doors from the lifts - turned out fine. We're going back next year same time, so we'll see where we end up!
 
with T1 completely renovated i'm surprised they didn't move you right away to another room when you discovered the leak.
leaks in the bathroom shouldn't have happened once the entire hotel was completely made over.

probably a fluke you had this issue, haven't read of any physical issues with the rooms now they have been completed.

but, sounds like you had a good vacation as you are already planning for another one there.

We did, we absolutely loved it - so this issue didn't dampen (no pun intended) our enjoyment of the holiday at all. Can't wait till next year! Although, we are planning on staying at the Cabana Bay for 10 nights, 4 at the RPR and one week at a villa - 3 whole weeks at the RPR would require a 2nd mortgage I think!

What email address did you use? I might do the same thing. I made several requests a couple of months ago when I was talking to a representative upon booking but it wouldn't hurt to refresh my requests for our upcoming stay.
 
Do they do anything special for Birthdays at the hotel? I was wondering if it is worth mentioning my husbands birthday when I put in my room request. Thanks.

Always mention it as you never know. You can get a birthday pin at checkin or at the park guest services.
