Draft your favorite obnoxiously over-the-top room request (winner will be selected)

[danacara]

You know you've seen some real winner room requests here on the boards - the ones that are so over the top that they are practically painful to read. This is your chance to draft your own with as much imagination and disney detail as you can muster. It has to start with "Dear Room Controller." You can pick whichever resort you want. Here we go, I'll get us started.


Dear Room Controller,

I am so excited, enthralled, over the moon about our upcoming stay in the Boardwalk Inn. Before I arrive to check in, I would like to make a room request.

Firstly, I would like a complimentary upgrade from our current standard-view accommodations to concierge water view if possible, preferably concierge boardwalk-view, water-view, top floor, with two queens (not doubles) and a daybed and a full sized bathtub in the bathroom. We would like our room to be directly in front of the pier if possible but not on top of any restaurants as we do not like to hear any noise whatsoever in our room. Secondly, we would like a full balcony and a view of both the Epcot fireworks and the Beach and Yacht club. Thirdly, we would like to be near the elevators as we are bringing grandma, who has three artificial knees and cannot walk long distances. It would be wonderful if we could be assigned a couple of cast members to carry grandma around when her knees give out. We would like a non smoking room, a complimentary refrigerator for our perishables, nightly turn-down service with the little minty chocolates on our pillows, extra towels, extra pillows, early check-in, late check-out, and your soul please.

Also, this is mine and my husband's thirteen-year, four-month and twenty-two day anniversary, so a free gift basket and an upgrade to a suite would be a wonderful way for us to celebrate our special occasion.

Thank you!

Sincerely,
E.Z. Tewpleze

Dana that is an absolute hoot !!!!! I am majorly rolling on the floor laughing here.

But gee......you forgot to ask if there were any discounts available.

 

[Mandy aka Minnie]

I really needed that! This could be an interesting thread...

 

[Bob NC]

danacara....Didn't you have a birthday sometime this year? That should be good for some *special* attention.

 

[mudhen]

Mine would be simple....

Just hook me up in the apartment they
built for Walt inside Cinderella's Castle


Oh, and maybe a couple of guaranteed p.s. for
Cinderella's breakfast for the wife and daughters.

 

[Trekker]

I think this thread could be a blast!

I just ask that everyone remember - this thread is only a joke, you know humor....

Dear Room Controller,

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how glad we are that we will soon be staying at Walt Disney World. Our 3 year old has been looking forward to this her entire life. We also have a 7 year old and a 9 year old. Since our Prince and two Princesses love everything Disney, we knew that your hotel was the place to stay.

I know that you must be busy trying to fulfill other people's wishes, and I hate to bother you, but we have a few things we would love to have happen. I want you to know though, that this IS NOT for dh and I, it's for our deserving children. We could only afford one room at your hotel, and we're on a budget, so we fudged on Little Ariel's age. My husband and I would be happy in the room we've been scheduled for, but it would just make her day if you could upgrade us to something with a nice daybed in it -although a suite would be nice too.

Cindy loves animals, and anything to do with them. I read on the internet that Mousekeeping sometimes makes cute little creatures out of things in the room and linens, so I am planning on bringing along her collection of 134 beanie babies, and four Disney characters. Please forward this message to Mousekeeping, and inform them that we would like to have a full three ring circus created in the room on the third day of our trip. We are planning to go to the Animal Kingdom that day, and this would be such a hit! Will you provide the hula hoops for the three rings, or do I need to bring my own?

Last, we have our son, Phillip. Phillip is "all boy", and loves anything to do with sports. Baseball season will be in full swing when we get there, but I don't see any information on whether or not you offer Sports Channels in the rooms. We would like to request ESPN, ESPN2, and the Sports Network. Also, we are planning on sending him to the ESPN club by himself on the day we are at the World Showcase, since everyone knows that boys can't stand all that science and cultural stuff over at Epcot. Can we exchange that day of his ticket for tokens at ESPN?

I understand that you are able to order little gifts from WDW Florists, and that the hotel will have them in the room when we arrive. I wanted to do that for my kids, but I checked out the prices, and they were just outrageous!! So, I headed off to Big Lots, and bought some Disney stuff there really cheap. I'm going to send it in a big box the week before we come. It will be marked "Welcome Gifts for the Smith Prince and Princesses". Please make sure that everything is arranged and laid out in the room when we get there.

My brother's wife's mother has a cousin who belongs to DVC. Please note this on our reservation form so that we get our free valet parking. Also, I understand that if you sit through the DVC presentation, you can get a certificate for a free lunch. We don't plan on buying (only rich folks with money to burn can buy in), but please sign us up for this on each day of our stay. We must be done by 12:30 each day though, because I've already made all of our PS for 1:00.

As far as the room goes, we won't be too picky, since you are going to give us that complimentary upgrade we discussed. Anything with an unobstructed Castle and Fireworks view, non-smoking and on the top floor is fine. Oh, and we need a balcony, so that Frank and I can smoke on it. We'd never stay in a smoking room, since they smell like smoke, but we've gotta get in our 3 packs a day - you know how it is!

You may want to make a note of the fact that all 5 of us will be having our birthdays while we are there (the first 5 days), and that my husband and I will be celebrating our anniversary on the last day at the park. We understand that you traditionally supply balloons and treats on birthdays and a bottle of champagne for anniversaries. We prefer Mumms, 1972.

Have a Disney Day!

Mrs Nada Klew

Dear Room Controller,

Hello, we are so excited about our upcoming Disney stay over Christmas. We were hoping to get a really nice room, I mean really nice wink wink. So we booked at the All Star Movies. The kids are so excited, they can't wait to get in that pool. But I was wondering if you could help me with a little surprise, imagine those faces on Christmas morning when they wake up in the room and find themselves face to face with Buzz and Woody!! Wouldn't that be a hoot, we would video the whole thing and send you a copy. I was also wondering if you could help with a little upgrade on the room, no additional charge if possible but if necessary we could kick in a couple extra bucks, not to exceed 50 extra. What we were really hoping for was a suite, do they have those at ASmo? If not we would move, I heard that white hotel was okay, a suite in there would be really really nice, wink wink. Aren't there some people trained to help out with reservations and such, con-something, could we get one of those too? Oh and a nice view, really nice if it isn't too much trouble. I was thinking too about the crowds, my kids want to see everything, I mean everything, so do you have any of the FOTL passes? And a rickshaw so we don't have to do so much walking. And Christmas dinner in the castle with some characters, and a back stage tour, and some photos with Mickey, character breakfast coupons, we want to be in the parade too, it looks like so much fun, i was thinking about front of the monorail also, some preferred seating for fireworks and parades, and a trading pin and character meeting VIP type thing so we get those pins we want and don't have to wait in line with all those bratty kids to get those autographs.

I know you are busy, but I also know it is your job to make the guests happy, and well *this* would make us happy.

Looking forward to your reply

Jane

 

[Buzz2001]

Awesome guys! ROTFL! Peter Pirate has to create one too

 

[HookdonWDW]

bump!

 

[MJS]

Too funny!

Danacara, are you going to be one of those horrible posters who will whine on these boards if you do not get everything that is on your wish list?

Also, I cannot believe that you did not request an upgrade to the Presidential Suite, that Mickey himself should greet you upon arrival, that you and your family desire Early Entry (just you alone, no one else in the parks), etc. What about all of your special food/beverage requests for concierge? Don't forget that you will need at least 100 bottles of water. Did you ask for pool hopping privileges to all of the other resorts? I am really concerned that you left out so many important requests!

Thanks for the humor!

 

[danacara]

hookedonwdw - I LOVED the bit about "will you be providing the hula hoops?" LOL

 

[Peter Pirate]

Dear Room Controllor, I know you do an excellent job in your job and I really don't want to bother you...But, we are staying at the AKL for a week and we would like to request a few little things.

First, the location of our room. Well, we're not really very picky and we've read that most rooms have a really great view but we would really appreciate a second floor room on the pool side, near the elevator but not near the air conditioners but near the animals' watering hole but not behind the trees near the watering hole in a non-smoking area, with bunkbeds and preferably new sheets as we may be allergic to the detergent you use...And if it isn't too much trouble could you comp us concierge access? I know that's asking a lot but this is a very special trip for us as it's the first trip since my DH lost his job in a freak ball bearing accident down at the plant...I won't go into details but please make sure none of the furniture rests on coasters made of ball bearings...It could cause a relapse...

Now, we're going to be going to MK first & I've heard you have wonderful transportation at the AKL but we were wondering if, since this is our big, once in a lifetime trip, if it would be possible to secure personal transportation to the MK for that first day? We'd be willing to pay 20-30 bucks for the privilege. If this is possible please let me know ahead of time...Oh, do you think Mickey could drive the van?

As for our meals, we're planning on celebrating or 20th wedding anniversary during this trip although it really isn't our 20th untill two years from last Thursday but it's close so we thought what the heck." We've made reservations for V&A's and were wondering if you could get us some special attention from the chef? Also, while we're not picky eaters, I don't eat meat, my DW doesn't eat fish, our DD doesn't eat processed foods and sonny, well he can't digest greens, so have the chef please take this into consideration when planning his nightly menu.

Well, that's about it. We've heard about the Disney Magic for a long time and can't wait to see what little surprises you might have in store for us.

 

[NHMickey]

These are to funny...

 

[Tluvs2talk]

To Whom It May Concern,

My Hubby and I have stayed at your Resort for many years and feel it is time for us to be treated to a Comp room.

We would also like goosedown pillows on 600 count pillow cases as we are allergic to foam.

We also need to be right next to the pool as I take nightly swims, but we must insist that there will be no noise after 10:00 as I need complete silence to sleep.

We also must insist that we have priority seating on all transportation, rides, and at meals, we know others have waited longer but we DESERVE it...

We also need to have someone come to the room and gently wake us as we can't bear the sound of an alarm clock or phone ringing in the morning. I'm sure this will be no problem as you can also serve us our breakfast then....

Dear Room Controller,

My precious daughter who is just a little princess and is the smartest, cutest little girl in the entire world and deserves to have everything that she always wants in life has asked me to write to you. We are booked for a garden-view room on a special code that we got 40% off the rack rate (wasn’t that just so smart of me?) but she absolutely has to have a great view of the Castle. After all, she’s a little princess, and doesn’t she deserve this? I mean no other little girls would ever be as perfect as she is. Because this is my little princess’ first trip to the Grand Floridian I’d also like for you to upgrade us to the concierge level in the main building. I know that this might be a little tough, but I’m sure that you can understand how very important this is to us.

Of course we need to have a non-smoking room because my precious little princess doesn’t want to smell smoke. But please give us a room away from other people, because my mother-in-law is also coming along, and she smokes four packs a day. I’m going to try to make her smoke on the balcony rather than in the room, but you know how mother-in-laws can be.

Because my mother-in-law is coming along, we’ll also need a room close to the elevators, because she doesn’t walk well. I want to make sure that the room is very quiet, because of course my precious daughter the princess will need a nap every day. So please make sure we are near the elevator, but in a quiet spot away from all the other rooms. It would be really great if you could put us in a suite, because my mother-in-law snores and has a flatulence problem, which might keep us awake at night.

I also need to be near the pool because my princess wants to swim every day. So in addition to my other requests, please make sure we are very close to the themed pool. It’s also important to us to be close to the monorail and all of the restaurants. If it’s not too much trouble to ask, could we also have a room with a king sized bed and a day bed, and also a rollaway for my sweet little princess?

Of course we must have the Alice themed room, because that’s my little precious daughters very favorite story. And please ask the concierge to contact us when we check in so that we can get booked for the Cinderella breakfast in the castle.

It would be great if they could also have the room decorated with fresh flowers and a special gift, because my princess' birthday is going to happen during our stay. It would be super if we could have Mickey and Minnie waiting in the room for us when we get back from the park on her birthday to suprise her.

We’d also really like you to make sure that the weather cooperates every day while we are there. I mean, I know we’re going in August, but if you could maybe make it so the humidity is low, and those pesky afternoon storms don’t happen during our visit, that would be great. We know that you’re Disney, and so you can make this happen!!

 

[HookdonWDW]

ROFL Peter... I bet they'll have a BIG SURPRISE in store for you!

 

[LemonDietCoke]

These are hilarious!

Dear Room Controller,

I just want to say how excited we are to be heading for this trip of a lifetime, our 7th since our little princess was born! We can't think of a more magical place to spend her 3rd birthday!

We have stayed at your fine establishment during our last 3 trips and have enjoyed every minute of it. Because we are return guests, we know the layout of your hotel intimately and have a few small requests that I know will make our trip extra magical! I know you can't guarantee any thing so I have only included the ones we ABSOLUTELY need.

First, we need adjoining rooms for all members of our party -- this includes both sets of grandparents, her maternal aunt and 3 first cousins, her paternal aunt, uncle and their 4 children (but two are infant twins so it's only one room) and her babysitter and her family. I have attached an excel spreadsheet with the names of each party and their room requests.

It is most important that these rooms be non-smoking (although Grammy Kate and Grampy Lou do smoke and will most likely only smoke on the balcony but I can't guarantee if their gout is acting up but they only smoke in the evening and at times of stress so it won't make too much of a mess since they are in the most magical place on earth ) and all adjoining. It is imperative that these two requests be at the top of the list since Grammy Boo has agreed to babysit for all the kids one night and, hence, all room doors need to be open simultaneously like one big train car.

The next most important room need is quiet because we are all light sleepers. The rooms should also over look the main pool area and be close the elevators and vending machines since some of our party have trouble walking long distances since their hip replacements.

Since it will be our princess' birthday -- well, we are celebrating it during this trip but she did turn 3 a few weeks ago -- I'd like to make this trip extra special! She especially loves the princesses and I know Mousekeeping sometimes makes towel structures. I have enclosed a "how-to" on making Cinderella's castle out of towels. Please forward this to our Mousekeeper so she can plan on building it for our arrival. To keep the magic going, have him/her to build it on a rolling tray so we can keep it up all week.

We are concierge level -- what a wonderful service and we loved it during our last stay. However, food allergies were an issue during that visit. Our little princess is allergic to gluten and milk and will require hospitalization if even exposed to those two allergens. Please set aside a gluten and milk-free zone in the concierge level. I have provided a note from her allergist to confirm this problem. When setting up this area, please refer to the schematic I have enclosed as well as the food preparation and disinfecting tips that must be followed closely.

Again, thank you for your help. I'm looking forward to our magical stay!

Have a Disney Day!
Mrs. C. Lu Less

Those are awesome! I love it!
