I know you posted sometime ago & I saw no one answered your post.. No, I do not thing that it is worht the extra money. You do not have a balcony at any of the rooms in the HRH or the RPR. Some of the PBR do have a balcony & it that case then in my opinion it would be worth it. I will sit on a balcony at night, but will not sit infront of my window to look out.. but that is just me...
