Ent. Rates

Anyone ever use the Entertainment rate for DLH or GC? How cheap does it go? It looks like it may just be a rebate. Depending on how many nights you stay.

I do not believe that the EC rate, is applicable toward any Disney Properties.

There is something in my book that has to do with Hotels.com and it is some kind of rebate. Disney properties are included. It is different than when you use your card to get your discount. Disney properties are not listed on this page.

That sounds interesting. I do vaguely recall something about that, on this forum. However, I cannot remember any particulars right off.

I'm not an expert on this, but I recently went into way more detail than needed while answering a question.

There are 3 sections, at least in my E Book that expired a few days ago, about hotels. And the Disney hotels are indeed listed there on one of the sections.


BUT with most hotels (HoJo Anaheim being the glorious exception), the EB discount is no better than other discounts out there. AAA, just pre-booking with a hotel online, etc, will generally get you the same or better.

And the Disneyland hotels have periodic special AP offers, like the AP8 rate talked about on a different thread. You would want to look hard at the numbers, and see if, say, 139 a night at Paradise Pier Hotel (if you're going during the AP8 days) would be a nice enough savings to make one person buying an AP worth it.


Other than HoJo Anaheim, I am quite sure that I could always find the same or a better rate (generally through just booking directly online with the hotel) in ways other than using the Entertainment Book.
