natebenma -


Thanks!!! I was wondering when they opened in the morning. Your right, we'll be out the door by then.

Anyone know if there are coffee makers in the room and if not, where can I get an early morning cup?

As dsmom indicated, yes there are (Keurig) coffeemakers in the rooms.

Dee, as always, a wonderful job!

I'm pretty sure we are going to do Universal next year. I was pretty set on HRH but now you've made me think Portofino looks pretty good too!

Thanks, Robyn!

Thanks!

I've never had Kuerig coffe before so I better set that up before bed. I can't make coffee before I've had my coffee.

Thanks for sharing.
We just got back from 5 nights at the RPR Club Level and it's nice to see the differences. Our morning juice was just served in the plastic cups that say Loews. I see champagne flutes in your pictures.
I see that had more to offer for "lunch" time also.

In addition to the usual cheese platter and antipasto, every night at cocktail hour is a different theme:

Italian
Asian
Southwest (Mexican) -kids love the yucca fries (not me though)

and one or two others before they start repeating

That's good to know. I don't think I would like Italian every night.

I do think it is nice they let you take cereal for breakfast if you are doing the early morning, however, I think that they should open to accommodate guests that are using the early entry...afterall, that is a huge perk of staying at the resort.

I totally agree!!!

Club room cocktail hour food has changed for the worse. Instead of the high quality food from years past, they seem to be going to more family friendly (filling ) foods which include 2 pasta dishes and a salad (in addition to rolls, cheese platter and vegetable platter).

Just was there last week for 6 days...fodd was horrible in the evening and not worth eating... my family did not feel well after Wednesday's pasta. Breakfast was o.k., good fruit and yogurt but alot of carbs. Snack was really not worth going to. Dessert was relatively non-existent. They have to fix this very soon. Totally not worth the money, however the staff was wonderful.

My wife summed it up:

Peasant food


We have always loved the cocktail hour but not anymore. Breakfast is still A++ though
