Loews Card ?

[JOC]

You can check in early even if you're not a Loews member. Your room might not be ready, but you can get your keys for FOTL privileges.

Loews matched my Starwood status; what is Starwood Preferred Plus? I know Starwood has Preferred, Gold and Platinum level, which would be the equivalent of Loews Blue, Gold and Platinum.

They matched my starwood membership status.

I signed up for Loews first AFTER I booked my RPR room. Will I still receive member perks during check in if I show my card? The names are the same on the card and the reservation.

 

[nhrenee]

Yes, but it's a good idea to call back and ask them to put your Loews #on your reservation.

i recently joined the lowes club after making my reservations. does anyone know if it is still applicable if the reservation was made through a travel agent . thanks

I learned about the First Blue Card through you guys. (by the way, this is, by far, the most informative web site I've ever visited - You are all great!).

My problem - I'd already booked my trip and when I called Universal to give them my number so I'd possibly be recognized with an up-grade (if available at check-in) and the welcome gift - they told me I'm out of luck!

They said that even thought Loews owns the hotel; they needed the number at the time I booked - not that they bothered to mention it to me.

Any suggestions?

 

[JOC]

Call them back...you probably talked to someone who was having a bad day!

Hi there, Myrtle. I didn't give them my Loews first number either when I initially booked. I called today to change my ressie from a garden view to a pool view, which was no problem. Then I said, "By the way, can you check to see if my Loews First number is in the ressie?" A pleasant boy named Matt said that it wasn't, and I asked him to put it in there (I also have an ENT rate). He did take my number.

My advice is to play dumb. Call them and tell them you're just checking to make sure your Loews First number is in the ressie. When they tell you it's not, shout out your number!

Good luck.

Guess I really am tho'. I called the hoted directly and they said "no problem". They were really nice. Much more pleasant to deal with than those actually helping you choose a vacation package - it's a business tho' - what should I expect?

We just returned from HRH - received beer and nuts about 4:30pm and also we were celebrating 2 birthdays and graduation, my boys received small chocolate candy cd cases and a congratulations card. We were offered an upgrade to pool view but it was very, very far from elevator ( my mother has a hard time walking). My boys also were given free drinks with the grade A program. We were also given a 20 gift certificate for the Palm Restaurant. HRH hotel does not participate with the teen program, but we received our bags at the royal pacific when we visited the hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We stayed at the swan before moving to this hotel. We were treated much nicer at the HRH. Any questions, just ask. Does anyone know if there is a credit card that accompanies the loews care for free nights with points.

Hi luvdisney14. Just curious what kind of beer came with your welcome gift. I think this is a new offering, isn't it? Thanks!

 

[luvdisney14]

We got miller lite and my brother got bud. I think when we first applied for loews card we picked which beer we would prefer.

I applied for a LOEWSFirst card over 2 1/2 months ago. I immediately got an e-mail reply with my membership #, but, like many other people have reported, I've yet to receive my card by mail. I'll be calling the 1-800 #'s to LOEWS, but just in case I don't receive the card in time for our Nov trip, could I just make a copy of the e-mail they sent me and present it at check-in? Does anyone know what takes them so long to send out the cards???

 

[AlexandNessa]

I'm in the same boat, 3Minnie. I got my e-mail confirmation on 6/1, but I still don't have a Loew's card either. At least my number is on my reservation though.

 

[highlander447]

Its pretty strange but I got my card in just under 3 weeks and I live in Scotland go figure

I did not have my card at check in but there was no problem at all. I merely inquired if my number was in the reservation and it was.

I finally received my card from Loews today!!!! I registered in April and stayed at RPR in July. I had no card, but showed the membership letter w/number at the RPR and got the Loews cookies and stuff with no problem. Not only did I receive my card today, but because of the 7 night stay in July, I am now a Gold member!! Maybe they don't rush to mail blue cards?

Wanted to get your opinions on what food/drink option we should request, on our upcoming visit. We were originally going to fly, so I thought the water/fruit would be a good idea. Since the water isn't the best in Orlando, plus every other time we go down, we end up stopping to get water, so this will help out.
But now we're thinking of driving(ugh), so we can more money to eat out. So, since I will have access to get to a supermarket, I could get my water.
Or at that rate, can get milk/cookies too! LOL
So wondering if you all have experienced both, what you think is better.

 

[FeeFeeWhite]

I have a favorite at each one.

PB - Cookies/milk or the wine is nice

RP - tropical fruit and figi water

HR - cookies and milk (in guitar shaped plastic container)

I hope this helps!

 

[alaskantwinks]

I'm a Loews member, and I requested water and fruit, what is the "figi" water? I have been thinking about switching to milk and cookies for the kids sake. We'll be checking in in the morning (if possible) and we are staying on club level, so we'd have access to food and drinks anyway, but why not get 2 perks?
