ROYAL PACIFIC RESORT Information

[Dislifer]

juliebill: Don't give up on Universal! Yes, Universal has some wild rides-The Hulk, Dueling Dragons BUT they have sooooo many other great ones too! My entire family does not do roller coasters or any other wild ride, but there are still so many great rides and attractions that your family would enjoy. Especially since you don't have really young kids anymore, you should really give Universal a try, I think you and your family would LOVE it!

Dislifer, would you mind telling us what was on the evening menu for the club level?? Leaning that way for the room! Thanks

 

[Dislifer]

We only made it there for the appetizers some night; but we made it there for the desserts almost every night!!!

Let see, one night they had spring rolls, one night they had pasta with tomatoes, tomatoe sauce, chunks of chicken, olives
another night they had chicken, rice, vegetables
That's all I think we ever were there for BUT besides the main appetizer, every night they had veggies & dip, another small Pasta salad type thing, tortilla chips, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, crackers and cheese, fruit, etc. and what my son LOVED: those Smuckers Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches.

If I can answer any other questions for you; ask away!!!

We want to go to Universal the end of October. We have a Florida resident
rate of $205 for RPR. This doesn't seem like a great rate to me. Will they
go down, and when do you think?

Thank you in advance for any and all advice!

We will be staying on the Club Level on August 30th for three nights then we will be at WDW for the next two weeks. Since we will be celebrating a Anniversary I was told to call Concierge and let them know. Any one have that #?

Thanks

Big thumbs up for Ernie on the check in desk at RPR We told him it was our son's 13th birthday on check-in and when we got back to the room later in the day he'd send up a big jug of milk and a plate of cookies, along with a personalised card. That's what I call service

 

[Motherfletcher]

Kudos to Pia as well. She is legendary and I'm proud to have her call me a friend. She started 2 weeks after RPR opened. Anyone remember when they were calling the hotel Bali?

Can't bring myself to scroll thru the whole thread -help, lots of questions:

1) Water View Rooms (indicates pool or waterway)...I'm told the pool view is great, haven't stayed @ RPR - does the waterway face the pool too or a canal?

2) Can I assume standard faces a street view?

3) have only stayed @ HRH, last visit 2/05,
we got an upgrade to pool view even with PAP rate with loews member #...do they still offer this perc?

4) As for rennovation in '07, any time frame yet?

Hope you can help me out

 

[aztecgoods]

The view I always get at the RPR has both IOA, the pool and the canal in sight, very cool view there, I"m pretty sure it was just a standard room too. Not sure when the renovations are going to be complete, you may scroll through here I know I've seen stuff about that on here somewhere.

 

[keishashadow]

thanks...any more info , wondering about the "convention" factor too.

I TOLD YOU SO......keisha..........doesn't that sound familiar???


i made some notes from the beginning of this thread on rooms.
i also went thru another thread that some of the hotel experts of rph posted on.
give me some time and i will check them and get back to you on the home thread.

we are missing each other again.
we are in opposite patterns........i leave disney the day you get there.
but, i am going to universal that date as you are coming from universal.



are you wishing for a highway view, pool or park view?
i assume, park view.

i'll get back to you but it has to be soon as i leave next week.

tee-hee mac; should have thought to just ask you to begin with - duh.

we're not doing Universal this year (too cheap, squeezing the WDW AP's for all they're worth).

all my yearly travel is done on a set budget, therefore cost is usually the tipper for my view, not a big difference in price for our dates, next Aug. between standard & water view might consider the concierge level, around the price for a pool view @ HRH. Reading the Luxury Guide to WDW, who gives their service a big thumbs up for value (real food, unlimited water bottles, etc.)

I've been away from the dark-side for awhile but, cannot grasp why rates @ the HRH are so high.

Will probably book a AAA rate & hope for AP or promo - assume they're far & few beginning of Aug.

keisha, rates have dropped on some night for the aph holders 2 days ago.
sunday is down to $159. night i think that's the amount. friday and saturday is still the same with aaa, which is still cheaper than the aph rate.

that's the rate for rph that i checked out.
check out the hrh now for the changes.

 

[keishashadow]

thanks mac, was on Univ. site yesterday, can book AAA rate for '07 but not AP...assume those rates aren't released until a few months ahead of time?

Are there different deals on Univ. site vis Loews/

 

[rpbert1]

i am staying at RPR next JUly for 3 weeks , is it possible to get the stay 4 play free tickets for the 3 weeks

i receive maybe 3 emails a year from loews on specials they are running.
i have used both of those sites to book .

 

[LOLA2]

What time does pool close? We will be getting in around 9:00pm. on saturday and I know my kids will want to take a dip if possible.

 

[faindrops27]

I have a family of 5. i got a quote for 1347, @hrh, and 1212, at rph. My question is where does the fifth person fit in the room. This will be my first time onsite @ universal, debating which room is roomier for 5.Oh, our stay is for 4 nights in sept 2007. Thanks in advance

 

[jillybeene71]

You can get a rollaway...i think for 25.00 per night...we stayed 5 in a standard room at the hrh but the 5th person was only 5 so we slept 3 in one bed.
It would have been an extra 100.00 for me...i rathered spending it at the parks than on a extra bed.
to each his/her own though...
