Date and Rate for 2004?

[Lou256]

GeminiMom,

I'm staying at the HRH, for those dates, what Hotel did you get for that rate?

My Son ( age 7), likes music, and I thought this would be ideal for him. Even though the other on - site Hotels might be cheaper, I have my heart set on HRH, because of him.

What site did you use? Just tried Universal, and the same rate came up.

Thanks for your effort.

Lou

Yikes! So sorry Lou, the rates I posted above were for the Royal Pacific. For some reason i just assumed you were looking at staying there. My 10 yr old son wanted to stay at HRH also, but when I told him we could pool hop & visit the lobby of the HR even though we were staying at RP he was happy as a clam He then proceeded to tell me "As long as we have FOTL & you save some money, I'm happy!" Go figure.

I just booked the Royal Pacific Resort for Wed, October 20th to Sat, October 23rd.

Got the Fan Club rate at $157 per night. ($525 total w/ taxes)

I'm pretty happy with this rate considering it's during HHN and that's getting to be a very popular time.

I just booked the Royal Pacific at the Entertainment rate of $119.00 for Aug. 25-27. I am so thrilled, it would have been $151.00 with AAA, so I think I got a fantastic rate.

01SweetPea - I'm also looking to stay at HRH in October.... how did you book this entertainment rate please? Thanks!

 

[GOOFY ROCKS]

We are staying @ HRH Memorial Day weekend for four nights. I am paying 239.00/night for pool view standard room that includes two adult tickets for length of stay. (I bought the two kids five day passes on line for 99.00 each). We will not be returning to Universal within the year but I am wodering if I should rethink everything and get an annual pass because of all the hotel, restaurant discounts I keep hearing about on this board. Any ideas??? Is the rate I have a good one considering it is a holiday weekend?

 

[ksdave]

I would definitely consider at least one Preferred Annual Pass as you not only get great discounts on the room, but also free parking, 20% discounts on merchandise and 15% on most restaurants. It would only be $70 more than the price you are paying for the 5-day pass, and the savings for fur nights hotel will most likely be alot more than that. We got a Bayview room at PBH for only $200/night the week before you go with our AP rate.

 

[AlexandNessa]

We just had a very lackluster stay at the PBH, and I cancelled our Oct. 28-Nov. 2 stay there. I rebooked the same dates @ RPR Club for $209 APH. Hoping for better luck @ a different resort!

 

[Michelina]

I was finally able to get my 3rd night (May 1st) at RPR, it showed as sold out when I booked the 2 nights before it a few weeks ago. In the meantime I made a reservation through Hotels.com and had to cancel that. Even with their 25.00 cancellation fee it was cheaper with Entertainment discount through Loews - $167.00.

 

[Mary3d]

I booked HRD may24 to 28 for 2 rooms, at Entertainment rate for $164 per room/per night. Thanks to these boards I have saved a lot of money over my original reservation where I was quoted $231. I had to keep call back and asking for the EB rate. some of the operators were more knowledgable than others.
This breakfast rate looks good. Wonder if I can get that.

 

[Johnfish]

OOOO Im soooo happy!! I just got 8/17 at RPR for 119 entertainment rate.

Johnfish,
Who did you make your reservation with? Lowes,Beastar, etc.

 

[LynnB]

Just booked RPR June 3 thru 6 for $146.00 a nite APH rate.

 

[Lou256]

LynnB, that's great, because I'm still trying too get my rates changed - HRH 6/18 - 6/20. Calling just about every other day, and nothing, they say all Ent. and Fan Club rates are booked for that weekend.
