Hotels in Universal Studios

Hi y'all Dibbers,

Couple of questions for you, we are a family of 5 and are going again this year November/December, last time we went we stayed in the Loews Royal Pacific Resort for 1 night to take full advantage of the FOTL passes you get free with your stay in a resort hotel. However this year we want to stay in the Hard Rock Cafe Hotel for 2 nights but at the moment prices for 2 nights are coming in at £999 which is absolutely extortionate when I was looking at the tail end of last year it was £400/500 pounds. does anyone know if they bring the prices down as the year goes on.

Second question was looking at the Loews Sapphire as another option and was wondering do you get the FOTL passes as with Hard Rock and the Royal Pacific.

Many thanks for your feedback.

You only get FOL with Royal Pacific, Portifino Bay and Hard Rock Hotel. Our one night at Portofino Bay has cost £398 for July. Was much cheaper when we stayed at HRH in 2015. However. When I factor in the hotel quality and two days of FoL passes for 4 I think it’s an acceptable price. Of course I’d have preferred it cheaper!

Can’t answer the price question but you don’t get Express passes at Sapphire Falls.

Have a look at the BA site... they have a sale on at the moment.
I’ve just booked club level at Portofino for £362 a night

What dates did you get that price for?

[Hendriks]

Book a date and hold it for 999

Keep checking and see if a sale occurs or drops in price

Thanks for this. Cheapest I've been finding 2 nights in June at RPR was 646 but just booked through BA for £613 - so that's a wee bit better
