Good for you. Get an all access card and you may get a room upgrade.

Citywalk is great, in my opinion far more lively than Downtown Disney

Way to go Claire! Maybe you should post it on the thread about what you're most excited about right now. Nice to have something special to look forward to.

Yay - that's fab!!

I love Citywalk too

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Oh well done!

I keep seeing people doing this - can I ask - is it cheaper than getting a front of line pass for a day? Whenever I get a quote for a night it seems really expensive!

Brilliant Claire, its worth it just for CityWalk! I keep checking the APH rate for the two nights we want in November, I have my all access card at the ready in case of an upgrade to..

Great news. We have loved both our trips to Hard Rock Hotel and cannot imagine a trip to USF without at least a minimum of a 1 night Universal hotel stay

It can be cheaper, depending on when you're going. We've booked one night at the Hard Rock Hotel in October purely to get the FOTL access. One night's stay will get two days unlimited FOTL access for the four of us. I booked the hotel room when the 'glitch' was available and it was $163 for one night. I priced the express pass (park admission not included) on Universal's website and it would cost $221 for the four of us for both parks for two days. This pass only allows one express ride on each attraction, not unlimited. So for us the hotel room is a better deal.

If the hotel room is going to be more expensive or if there are less than four in your party, then it isn't such a good deal I suppose.

Whats an all access card??

Whats an all access card??

It's a bit like a fan club, you pay a membership fee and you get benefits in return: http://www.hardrock.com/all-access/loyalty2_terms.asp

Isnt this like the loews card If you join there hotel club for free you get upgrades etc even at the lower level now Iv heard. Is it just the HRH that has the access card?

No. It's not specifically for the hotels, even though there are hotel benefits included with the membership. It's the Hard Rock brand in general and you have to pay a membership fee.

Another extra. I was given a Franchise holder All access card, I get 20% off all meals without building up points. I used it in London last month and the staff thought I ran a cafe somewhere..lol

The cards give you a comp upgrade if available, so if you book a garden view, you get upgraded to a pool view and so on..

I wasn't aware that they're franchised. That's interesting to know!

Hi, Hope you don't mind me asking but how much did you pay and where did you book? We're hoping to do the same thing and I really want to know if we can afford to do this and Discovery Cove...
