I'm pretty sure Hard Rock Hotel is a Loews hotel. I'm pretty sure Hard Rock licensed their brand to Loews. But lord knows I've been wrong before!
no, hrh is not a loews hotel.
they are a chain throughout the united states.
they do have the universal perks as being on the universal site but have no affiliation of loews youfirst programs.
all 3 on site hotels have the same universal perks.
pool hopping, fotl, charge back to the hotel set up, merch delivery from park to hotel room, transportation to parks, valet parking, star service, lobby concierge for all guests, ticket sales, etc.
when you pull up the hotels, read the add'l info on the hrh site.
it will state there they are not a part of loews or their programs.
they honor their own program. this was changed on the universal website july 1st.
hard rock cafe honors the all access cards.
it is their program and extends to hard rock hotels.
i think it was last year seminole bought out the hard rock hotels.
pbh and rph honor the loews youfirst program.
