Parking for Pool Hopping

[StitchandPooh'sMom]

We are checking in at PBH in less than a week! We've stayed onsite several times, but we have never pool-hopped and might want to check out the HRH pool this time. Will we be able to drive to HRH and park our car there? I can't remember if PBH gives us anything for the dash of the car or if we just use our room key to get into the parking area.

I know we can walk to HRH, but that might not be much fun walking back in wet suits.

Thanks very much!

We always use the boats to pool hop. Just need to switch off at Citywalk. Just tell the captain what you are doing and they will try to have the boat there at Citywalk to jump.

RPR had a dressing room at the pool area...I imagine HRH does, too. So just go prepared, and you don't need to have wet suits for the walk/ride/drive back to PBR.

all three hotels have a dressing/shower room for homies to change clothes or freshen up.

if you go to the other hotel, you will get stuck paying for a day parking at the tune of $20.

leave your car at pbh and take the water taxi to city walk.
get off there and then get on the water taxi for rph or hrh, whichever hotel pool you are hitting.

show your hotel room key for towels at the other pool.

Thanks, everyone! It was one of those random questions that I realized I didn't know the answer to!

I was just going to post this question about RPR. Our last day we may want to go to the pool after we check out and I was wondering about this. I know CSR at Disney has a great dressing room.

many homies check out and spend the rest of their time at the park or the pool.
they all change clothes at the pool dressing room when it is time to leave.

i always catch the last flight out at check out day night.

i use the pool room as i don't leave the hotel until 8:00 pm for the airport.

I just wanted to update this since we are just back and I got an answer. We were allowed to park at HRH by using our room key to enter the parking lot. I asked at check in at PBH, and they weren't sure but they thought we could. We called over to HRH and were told we just needed to swipe the room key, then we asked again at Bell Services at HRH just to be sure. Since we were already paying the PBH parking fee, we could park at HRH for no additional charge.

They also validate parking if you eat there, so we were prepared to eat lunch if necessary.

The kids preferred the PBH pool - they thought the slide at PBH was better and the HRH pool was too shallow. But they liked the hotel and want to stay there next time.
