Four seasons new hotel

[princessap]

Anyone interested in trying this one out when it opens next year??

 

[OrangeCountyCommuter]

Yes! And you just wait.. it will be cheaper at times then a Disney "deluxe" And this will be true deluxe not "pretty hotel with deluxe pricing" LOL!

 

[princessap]

lol. I think it will be popular!! I would do a split stay with that and onsite for sure!!

 

[Belle599]

I think this will make for a nice split stay with the Waldorf Astoria....which I still have not stayed in!

Rest assured...I'll be one of the first ones there! As previously mentioned, it will be true "deluxe" and probably far less in cost. Seriously, it's one of the things I'm looking forward to most in 2014

Be sure to do the Disney hotel first.. Otherwise the "downgrade" might be really upsetting!
(Sorry Disney but just charging a lot is not "deluxe" )

Do you guys really think it will be much less in cost (question, not sarcasm lol) only because I have never really seen a Four Seasons for under $500/night. I have stayed at a few and the cheapest I have seen is $450-600.

I would like to try it out as well.

I'm also wondering how much it will be. Does anyone have any solid info? My guess is it'll be about the same price as the monorail and Epcot deluxes -- only significantly nicer. Obviously for some staying at the Poly or GF for the same prices is preferable for other reasons.

During the height of the recession, I did notice some Four Seasons were offering discounts or something like 4th night free which did reduce the cost. However, now it seems to be pricing as usual.

I've stayed in several for $200-$350 a night...still way less than what disney calls "deluxe."

They're competing with the Waldorf and JW Marriott, both of which can be had for $200/nt in low season. Looking at Christmas Week 2014, the JW is $299/nt and the Ritz is $439/nt so I would expect the pricing to fall somewhere in that range.

Got one last weekend in Las Vegas for $250 a night.

(ANd have you priced the GF lately??? It's about the same price, but you sure get a lot less for that $450 a night LOL!)

Just out of curiosity
Random weekend in August

Beach Club $467
Grand Floridian $490
Waldorf $399

Hmm.... Yes, I know you have" fees" etc. But for almost $100 less I get a much nicer hotel IMHO!

Four Seasons run quite a bit more than JW's in my experience. I have noticed, in general, that Orlando hotels are on the inexpensive side -- other than Disney hotels.

$250? Wow. That's awesome.

Four Seasons and some of the other "luxury" brands are often cheaper on the weekends... Could be because the business travelers don't stay and pay

But even if they are the same at Disney it's just a much nicer "deluxe" experience IMHO. I am hoping it makes Disney up their game, but....

I've stayed at 4S Las Vegas for $145 (lmtclub), Whistler $186 (4S website) and am considering the current Travelzoo offer for Miami which would be $165 for our dates. Even the 4S Hawaii properties have been as low as $250. After some time this property will hopefully offer similar discounts.

If you are booking direct don't, rather book thru a 4S Preferred Partner agent to get the program benefits which is usually free breakfast and an upgrade.

Well since we're on the topic of price......thought some viewers of this thread who enjoy luxury hotels might be interested in the fact that I often see the Waldorf Astoria Orlando on lmtclub.com for $150.

For sure. I'm about to blow a gasket about what the JW in Palm Desert has been doing our last couple trips (March). While we are paying $350+ the outrageous resort fee per night, they are selling weekend rooms on Hotwire for $99 a night. The pool then becomes totally chaotic and overcrowded with LA drunken 20 year olds. So annoying.

Belle599, interesting. Best deal I have found so far for our New Year's stay is The Peabody for $117 on olotels. Will take another look at lmtclub. Would very much prefer the Waldorf Astoria.
