HRH 2007 room rates! Holy Cow!

[disneyfreakk]

Have you guys seen these?? Outragous!! We have stayed in a king club room for the last 4 years (october/HHN), but not this comming year. The AAA "discount" for a king club was $350.10/night which comes out to $393.76/night with tax. Rack rate is $389/night without tax! I almost fell over! So I took advantage of our loews plat and AAA discount and got a king suite for 242.10 /night plus tax.

Am I the only one with sticker shock, or do you guys think the HRH concierge is worth that?

Prices all depend on demand. When are you planning on going?

 

[disneyfreakk]

we go every year for the last week of october.

 

[damo]

Oh, so these are prices for next October? I would imagine that they will change as time gets closer.

It must be supply/demand. Big companies (conventions) book the HRH to wow their guests. Plus it's closer to the parks. The answer may be to stay at the PBH because the prices have come down a little, and it seems to be a fan favorite lately. Sure, the walk is longer to the parks, but the room size is much bigger, and the bathroom is huge. We stayed twice this year.

Yea, as they said it's all about demand. If the hotels are getting more crowded then they're going to cost more money, which is why Disney hotels are so expensive. They're a victim of their own popularity

 

[disneyfreakk]

I know, but that doesnt mean I have to be happy about it! LOL

Agree 100%.

We thought the HRH was great but, cannot believe that it's bumped into 1st place in price among the 3 hotels.

Went w/RPH to save some bucks & hope for comp upgrade, still torn as to whether to try out a stand @ PBH.

You midas well go to the RPR to save some money and enjoy the huge pool. Once you stay at the PBH, you'll be spoiled, especially if you get a west wing room and the stay goes with no problems.

maybe it's because they need to recover all that was spent on refurbishing?

That's why we decided to stay off site next summer. We're going for two weeks and I couldn't justify that much just for the room! I'm sure we're going to miss the amenities of staying on site, but the prices for 2007 were just too much for me.

it's people like me that make those prices hold high at hrh.....lol

i adore the hrh and will be staying there oct 07 for hhn...

i have stayed at all three hotels and would list hrh as my favorite followed by pbh then rph.

nothing bad with the rph just the rooms are smaller and i have become spoiled by the other two.
