Where were you guys? I looked all over and walked around the pool yelling, "Bean family, where are you???" but noone ever answered.

And you got cont. breakfast?? Maybe this is the way to go vs. the Kids Suite? I dunno....we usually get a standard room for the 3 of us....so, i'm chartering into "unknown" waters here

it was a queen deluxe on the club level

When you book club you cannot reserve a queen deluxe, you can only request it - that is the only down side to the whole thing (I requested ours 3 weeks out and they added the request to the reservation and we got it

)

I really enjoy having the club level because of the breakfast and "dinnertime" offerings. It really cuts down on the amount we would have to spend for food. My kids are big into breakfast and we had a good big lunch each day at the parks so the appetizers (which were plentiful in quantity - they kept everything full the whole time) was more than enough for a light dinner. Not to mention the free beer and wine from 5-7

I would give it a try.....if it works out then you can thank me

- if not....well.....then......blame someone else

Cool about the pilots last flight. Did you notice if they did anything when he landed? At my airport they bring out the fire and rescue guys with their trucks and they make this huge water canopy for the pilot to taxi thru.

Yup.....That is exactly what they did!!!

Lets just say we got our $$ worth out of the club level (not just the food either

)

so, i can reserve a queen deluxe...and "request" club upgrade (not guaranteed) ...and if we don't get the upgrade to "club", i'll still get the queen deluxe?

I am not too savvy to the upgrade to club thing......but I know you can reserve a queen deluxe.

damo · 05-03-2007, 04:38 PM

You'd have to be pretty lucky to get a club upgrade. The upgrade from deluxe is a suite.

What was in the Club Lounge? What breakfast, appetizers, and desserts did they serve? We did Club last year and LOVED it at RPR. My kids are pretty much the same food eaters. So that would be ok. I just have no idea what they have at HRH in the lounge.

Fan2CSkr · 05-04-2007, 09:30 AM

Great pics and great first report! Looking forward to more.

The queen deluxe is such a spacious room! After staying in one its hard to go back to a std size room.

bubbasmom, you have to reserve the club level room and request on your reservation that you want a deluxe on CL. Not an upgrade but like damo said the LF upgrade would be to a suite w/o club. The suite only sleeps 3, so, its worthless for many of us. If you are going at a slow time you may have better luck.
