Empire State Club at the HNY

[Bexx]

This article from dlrpmagic shows the official confirmation of Empire State Club perks.

• Personalised welcome area exclusive for Empire State Club
• Continental Buffet Breakfast in a private lounge with Disney Character(s)
• Exclusive in-room services with dedicated staff
• VIP FASTPASS for all guests
• Relaxation area with free soft drinks
• Possibility to book interconnecting rooms (upon request and subject to availability)

I've checked the prices on the new winter 08 e-brochure and it costs £20-£40 per person per night more than a standard room, depending on the price band. BUT it doesn't automatically mean a lake view room - just like the standard rooms, these cost a further £20-£50 per room per night - again depending on the price band.

Sounds exactly like a HNY CC, huh?

When I went to book CC I assumed I'd get a park view room, but oh no! That was LOADS more. Hence I didn't go for it this time.

But depending what time of year you go it does seem like an awesome deal!!

Shame I didn't know about it when I booked...

Oooh, I just read the thread...might call up tomorrow and see if I can upgrade!! How exciting!!

 

[tennisfan]

That sounds quite reasonable. I may be tempted if I stay here again

Oooh might just phone them up and see how much extra we have to pay if we upgrade too... and not tell DH lol.

Ohh - just talking to my bf about this and he wants to stay Empire State Club on our next- never thought he'd go for it but his eyes lit up at the fasspasses loool

 

[wideeyes]

I think we will book this for next year will be nice to stay at the HNY again

With this pricing structure, the HNY offers a nice variety of options. You could upgrade to a lake view room, or choose to spend a bit more and go for the EC perks instead - which is probably worth it for the VIP FPs alone! Or go a bit mad and pay for both!! And that would still cost less than a standard room at the DLH! I like it!!!!!

Yes this sounds interesting! hmmmmmmm lol

I think we might book for the summer, as in January I think the location is important to warm up and we won't need VIP passes. DBF prefers the HNY so this is going to be great.

I started off reading this thread and I thought very interesting.
Looks like we need to update the HNY FAQ

.... but then I thought we are going to be kept busy on the "when are you going thread"

 

[torsie24]

I called reservations and Jasper (who I love) said there is no availibilty for my dates and that they have been selling the rooms for a while!!

Booo.
