HRH 's program is the all access one.
i joined that a couple of years ago. i collect HRC items.

it is great if you are a pin collector as you can view the new pins on line and buy them. also, some great merch you can't always find in the stores.


if you enjoy the Hard Rock Cafes, you will like the all access program

I see on website it is a $24.95 fee for joining all access program. Is it worth joining for discounts? How are the discounts at the hotel restaurants, and is there a discount for breakfast? Would you be able to get room upgrade if you already have a room book with super saving rate?

Yes, I am an all access member already - it's the Rock Royalty offer that's enticing. 30% off rates, half price cabana...

Basically it's to replace my Lowes Platinum membership...

 

[macraven]

the wording, "if available" is the catch.



mrsminniemouse, i have seen the sign up rate lower last year.
whenever you get something extra, it goes to the $25 membership charge.

when i did my sign up, the HRC back pack was included so i went with the that for the $25. they also included the $20 gift card when i signed up.


everytime you eat at hrc or stay at hrh, show your access card for the points to be added to your membership.

once you have spent $200, you get a credit on your access card.
i used my credits at HRC last year.

if you are big on HRC and the merchandise, yes, this is a good membership.
that is what sold me to it years ago.

We are Hard Rock all access members and love it because in the past when the Hard Rock Cafe was busy we just flashed our card and got seated very quickly.

I have just picked up a deluxe room for $140 a night.

WOW! Awesome rate.

I received that email too, it's great isn't it?

We already have a booking with them for April 18th (got APH Rate for that), so that was good timing.

I didn't see anything about a half price cabana in the email though, I would be very interested in that, does anyone know if that will apply to me or is that a different membership type? Also, what are the cabana prices at the moment, does anyone know? Thanks

On my email it says:

PRINT THIS EMAIL TO RECEIVE YOUR COMPLIMENTARY ALL ACCESS MEMBERSHIP AT CHECK-IN & TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS OFFER.

I'm guessing that may be because I'm from the UK and they don't send the kits out overseas?

I think the difference is that the OP's email was ALL ACCESS Rock Royalty* superstar treatment. My email said "You are invited to get the All Access* superstar treatment!" No Rock Royalty. A difference in membership level and perks.

Mine was also "PRINT THIS EMAIL TO RECEIVE YOUR COMPLIMENTARY ALL ACCESS MEMBERSHIP AT CHECK-IN & TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS OFFER."

I almost paid to join last month. Now, I get it for free. I just don't get the pin or the $20.

I've printed my email to take with me. Perfect timing for them to send it!

Ah thanks for that, so nothing to do with me being in the UK then. I see you're going very soon, did you book an annual pass rate by any chance? If so, would you mind reporting back here on whether you got the perks on the room or not? Thanks

BTW, Mazzy-We are staying at the HRH in just 4 more days and then we are moving to the Renaissance for Discovery Cove and Sea World! Can't wait!!

 

[d4est]

I originally booked w/my AP but switched to the supersaver rate. Saved quite a bit!

Ah, great minds think alike, lol, we're at the Renaissance Sea World first, then moving to the Hard Rock. Have you stayed at the Renaissance before? It's a great hotel, be sure to request an outside view though, as some rooms look out over the atrium, we got one of those last year and I didn't like that very much, I like to have daylight.

I got the same email too. I just booked a stay for early May.

Nope, we've never stayed at the Renaissance, but are looking forward to it. It looks quite nice. I did request a view of Sea World, but not sure if they'll honor it since I got the room through Priceline. $90 a night...I was very pleased w/that!

How did everyone get emails for complimentary All Access membership?
Is there a certain newsletter to subscribe to or website I should go to, to increase my chances of getting invite for free membership?

 

[kevin harrison]

At a guess, it will be how many times you have stayed there, or who you know.

It's not emails that you subscribe to, because I've recently changed my email addy, and changed all my Universal subscriptions to the new one, and the All Access went into my old email box, so I'm assuming that they got the email from records of our previous stays, we've stayed there twice now, and have stayed in both the other hotels as well, so quite regular guests.

I either got it because we are currently holding a reservation for Hard Rock for May, or it's because we stayed there last year.
