Just got back from a wonderful stay at the RPR (8/16/05 - 8/19/05). We were in Room 1314 which gave us a view of the pool (well really full view of the wading pool and if you looked between the palm leaves, you could see the pool). I would definitely recommend Tower 1 rooms since it's closer to the pool and restaurants like the Island and Jake's. This is a standard room with a king size bed. No sofa bed, but it did have a big chair and ottoman that 2 people could sit in. My 8 yrs old son enjoyed sleeping there. Room size was fine, but with the king size bed, would only sleep 2 adults and 1 small child comfortably.
We had a fantabulous time and would definitely return to the RPR!

From reading thru the thread, 1733 seems to be a great rm pick?
Family is going for first time to Universal, its my 1st time onsite and I want the perfect rm and 1733 seems like the best ? We want a park view definitely

Edit: Did anyone take any photos from their rm? I know I'm not the only crazy one who does that?

During our August stay we were upgraded from Standard to King Suite (gotta love Loews First! -- even got our amenity with a discounted rate). When I spoke to the front desk about the upgrade I told them that view was important to us. We got Suite 3500. Great view of the pool. I would not hesitate to be in that suite again.

Went a couple of years ago. HATED it! Will never go again.
More expensive "water view" room was on the first floor with overgrown vegetation blocking any possible view of water. Room was not cleaned until after 4:00 each day. Could not buy milk in the gift shop, but could get any kind of soda you wanted. Ridiculously long lines at check-in. Front desk said they would make a ressie at one of the park's restaurants . . . they never got the call. (There were other problems as well - I won't go into them all.)Did speak to a manager and got a complimentary breakfast - yee ha!

Just wanted to thank you all on this thread. I requested a room on a lower floor near the elevator in tower one. They gave me room 1204 which was on the second floor of tower one, just a few steps away from the stairs and elevator! Once on the ground floor, it was just a few steps through the pool area to the dock or the walkway! It was so convenient!!!! We were there for just 2 nights on 8/9 to the 11th and we did everything we wanted to do in a leisurely pace because of the close room location and the awesome FOTL access!!! No meltdowns... so convenient. I love Universal!

I must say though, I thought the room was rather small. We were upgraded without asking to a water view!
Loews first check in was easy, and all the associates we spoke to in the hotel were extremely cordial, always smiling, making eye contact, and addressing us by Mr. and Mrs. when on the phone. Theme park personnel were above average too, only a few fast food/cart clerks that could use some lessons in customer relations.

teentoddlermom, what was the view from your room and was it a king bed or 2-queens?

 

[gschmerl]

Since there have been so many interested people, I thought I'd bring this thread back to the top.

3606 is a Hospitality parlor on the 6th floor of tower 3. 3604 is a connecting queen room to the parlor. This suite is very close to the elevators and has an amazing view of the pool and some of IOA.

 

[teentoddlermom]

Just noticed the question, vw31, our room was two queens, and was a pool view through vegetation. Wish we were still there!

2231 is a 2 queen pet room with a view of the putting green. It's one door from the stairway exit to walk the dog. If you drive in the Tchoup Chop entrance you can park amazingly close to the room.

Just returned on 10/31 (very depressed) - RPR room was 2710 - seventh floor - tower two - had views of the the Hulk/Doom - straight ahead was the IOA light tower and to the right you could view the Hard Rock Cafe/Live...2 Queen beds....about 5 rooms from the end of the hall....from the front of the hotel....room was to the left of the bridge. We had booked a waterview room but all they had was second floor; basically staring at tree trunks...so Joshua at the front desk promised us we would have a good view of the parks and we did. You get used to the sound of the Hulk and the screams in the far distance...

I just returned 10/29. Depressed as well, but great memories. We had room 1529. A great room with a great view. We could see the Hulk, Dr. Doom and even some HHN stuff going on at night. The only complaint about the room was the walk from the lobby. It was probably the furthest room away from the lobby. But, no big deal. Still had a great time and a great stay at the RPR!

Here's a bump for Radiofanatic!

 

[lindalinda]

OK, I just booked ....club room ...if I understand it right, these are all in tower 3. So i think with 3 teen boys what I want is close to the club lounge and if possible a pool view. (from what Ive read thats the better choice right? pool view versus I4?) BTW, I loved that suggestion of using the gym for showers...thinking I can just send those smelly boys down there every night before bed...does anyone know how late the gym facilities are open?

We have stayed at RPR 3 times in the last 7 or 8 months. They always give us a room in Tower 2. The first time was on the 4th floor with a terrible view unless you like looking at I-4. The next 2 we were on the 4th & 2nd. (2206)
and at least you could look down at the water under the bridge and see the
Hulk (very top) and Dr. Doom. For $119.00 I guess you can't complain. Actually anything is better than seeing I-4. My husband smokes so we always ask for a "smoking room". Are all of those in tower 2 along with the pets? I'd sure rather be around smokers that listen to dogs all night. (I can stay home and listen to the neighbors 4 dogs all night). Sure would like to get away from that for a few days! I don't mind Tower2. IT is a little longer walk but I always enjoy the scenery and the many different plants that are in bloom anyway. It's a pleasant peaceful walk at night. Going back this month for my birthday for 3 days (providing my boss will let me take some vacation time ) and can't wait! I love the RPR. HRH looks so pasty white and not as troical. PBH is just way too high for me and from the pictures I've seen the rooms look rather stark. Oh well , just sounding off. Thanks, K. Bailey

RyGuy, what is a hospitality parlor? I'm looking for a connecting water view room in Tower 1 or 3. I would like 2 queen beds in each room or at least queen beds in one room and maybe king in the other.

 

[macraven]

i just booked at rph for october.

should i call in advance for a room request or wait until a few days prior?


looks like tower 1 is the favorite here.


this is a first for me.
all my other stays have been at hrh, except for one night at pbh

 

[gschmerl]

I faxed them room requests about five days before I was due to arrive.

 

[macraven]

thanks gschmerl for the heads up.

A hospitality parlor is a connecting parlor that attatches to a standard or pool view room to make a hospitality suite. They are very roomy and have a seperate bathroom, kitchen, dining table, pullout couch, desk, and entertainment area.

Just let RPR know you want connecting rooms and they will do their best to make it happen. I believe that most connectors are between a king and a two queen room but I think there are some that connect two queen rooms together.
