I found these 2 photos of a partially renovated hospitality suite. You can see the old curtains and no wall decor. But floors, kitchen, and furniture is replaced. I hope they don't keep it this way. Parlor room 3606

That room bluer was not renovated last October but was told when I come back this October I will see it has been renovated

Only reason I say this as I had the other suite nearby

Yep, but it looks like it's half finished, crazy.

I told you I was given a suite in tower 3 that had all new floors and shower but all the furniture was old. How can they rent a room that's half done.

Hi All
do they accept Universal gift cards at the Hotel (in the gift shops)? My mom bought them for my 3 kids.

Can you ask for a late check out? If so, what is the upcharge?

 

[macraven]

Yes gift cards are accepted there

Check out is 11:00
No additional charge
If you are a YouFirst member, you can get an hour later extension if you ask

For non Loews members, an hour extension can be allowed if the hotel is not a sell out

As long as there are not a lot of guests asking for a late check out on your floor, you should be good to receive it

I always get a later check out with my YouFirst level
Nice not to have to rush in the morning to pack up

You notice how they don't show any suites above the King suite? I don't think they touched the bigger suites, even the photos online are of the older suites.

This has me concerned We are checking in to a water view 2 bedroom hospitality parlor suite in 30 days and those pictures are not worth the money I am spending! I sure hope they will be done by then!

Hi All,

I made my reservations through the Loews site. They charged one night deposit. There seem to be no option to pay the whole balance. Can this be done. I would like to have no balance checking in. But... what if there is a way to do this, has anyone been charged again upon check out?

THANKS!!

You can contact the hotel and ask to be transferred to accounting

You can set up to make payments and have your reservation prepaid before you check in

If you do a search in the forum, you will see a few threads on the procedures for prepaying

I can't remember all the specifics that were shared in those threads

Macraven,
Wonderful!!! Thank you! I will search the forum, but you suggest calling RPR directly, and NOT Loews corporate website number?

TU again!!! You and Schumi have made this planning so easy for me! I can't thank you both enough!!!

 

[macraven]

Thanks for the kind words

Many of us try hard to help others based on our own experiences

I did the prepay many years ago but now I buy gift cards in advance and use them to pay my entire room charge when I check in
I order off the up site for the gc

Reason I do it that way now is I get points on my credit card when I buy anything online or in stores

Call the hotel direct
Tell them you want to set up a prepayment plan with accounting
Your call will be transferred then to the lady that handles it

I don't remember the exact procedures but you have to submit forms to set up the account

Mac,
I read through some old threads. Someone mentioned they hold $200 a night on your credit card for incidentals. So basically $1,200 for a week. They said it was released, but not until several days later. I have a Visa Debit on file, and would HATE for $1,200 to be held. Can you let me know your experiences?

 

[macraven]

i don't use a debit card so not sure of the answer

I prepay my room stay but have my cc on file
I use room charging while I am there

Since I have already paid the stay once I check in, I can charge up to the amount I already paid

If I charge back to the room and that amount over cedes what I have paid on my account, I get a $1 pending charge on my cx

What I do is buy more gc in the park and in the evening have those gc applied to my bill at the hotel

My $1 hold then drops off my cc

If you pay your room charge when you check in, they won't put a hold on your debit card

And you can decline to have room charging rights

Pay cash or use cc for food, shopping in the parks and you won't have to deal with any hold on your debit card
As long as you don't charge back to the room, no problems
