Hi
I see some information to call the hotel directly with room requests. I tried to do this and she said I need to call the Universal 800 number. Does this seem correct or should I try again direct to the hotel?
I am staying in a King Suite next month (not club) and it looks like there are 10 of these. I’m not sure what floors they are on. My request is that I do not want a ground floor room.
Thanks for any info on room requests.
I use to stay in 7100 king suite and also 6100
These are pool views
I have not stayed there since the remodel and know some of the room numbers have changed
Call the hotel direct to request a specific room number
Or at least have the room number listed on your reservation
I've read that you pass through/next to the Butterfly Garden on the walking path to the parks if you stay at HRH. Can anyone confirm? That would be a deal breaker for me even if a cheap AP rate comes out (bad pollen allergies). Is this also an issue with the PBR walking path since they on the same side of the resort? Thanks.
Thank you. My allergies are off the charts bad so I'd rather avoid that. Are ALL the deluxe hotels this way with their paths? At least with those you're a little further away so the water taxi makes more sense.Yes, you can either walk through it (bad idea with sandals) or stay on the concrete path around it. The entire concrete path from HRH hotel to the security check is through garden and greenery. It's really beautiful, but if you are worried about allergies, I don't think it is just the small butterfly garden that is cause for concern.

I'm fine with bushes and such but a lot of flowers would likely be an issue. I'll stick to the boat, I guess!The walking paths are paved but there is greenery around you- and flowers.
Does anyone know from experience if late August tends to have discounts? I'm only staying for 3 nights that isn't getting me much with SMSM so am hoping for another discount as it gets closer.Hard to get any discount in October with the popularity of HHN. Had to pay rack rate last year. We had a short stay that didn't qualify for the SMSM(stay more save more)

Thanks, that's good to hear that a discount will be likely. The lowest cost annual pass seems to actually be the exact same price as a 3 day park-to-park pass so I see no downside to getting that (since we are not visiting in the blackout days of July or Christmas). I see that the higher cost annual passes come with early admission but isn't that also offered by staying at HRH?The only other discounts besides SMSM will be annual pass discounts. Those are substantial and usually are available in August. You may find that an annual pass will be cost effective once you consider the substantial hotel discount.

The only other thing to be careful of with the Seasonal APs are the periodic black-outs of the US park during concert days. They don't always post those until much closer in to the actual dates. But even on those days the Seasonal APs can be used at the IOA park (or VB if you get the 3-park pass.)The lowest cost annual pass seems to actually be the exact same price as a 3 day park-to-park pass so I see no downside to getting that (since we are not visiting in the blackout days of July or Christmas).
