Hi all,
I am about to book 3 nights at the Portofino Bay Hotel, for between Christmas and New Year next year. There will be 5 of us in the room - DH, DS9, DS6, my mom and I. We have all shared a deluxe room at HRH in the past (booked for the sofa bed), but am wondering what option to go for at PBH?
From what I can gather, the deluxe rooms at PBH are only slightly bigger than the regular ones - and that appears to be due to the seperate shower cubicle rather than extra living space - am I right?
I was also thinking of booking a Bay View room, but again it looks as though there are very few balcony rooms and I am wondering whether paying extra is worth it, if the view is from a window that doesn't open? What do you think?
I have no problem paying the extra cost of either the deluxe room or for a bay view - but if the deluxe isn't really going to give me any extra space, and if we are not going to even notice the view part of the bay view room - then obviously paying extra for these 'benefits' would be pointless.
In your experience, what is the best type of room for us to book?
Many thanks for your opinions
