We are currently in T3. It is most convenient to the pool, water taxi, and bus stop. We have a view toward Volcano Bay.

A twin would fit, but they are small rooms. We have a standard 2Q room on the 7th floor.

T 3 is my favorite building

Same. We’ve found that we couldn’t beat the convenience of being so close to all of the transportation and the pool. Even if we don’t end up staying CL on future trip, I’d still request to be in T3.

Food was tough to find without waiting in ridiculous lines in the heat. We ate at Toothsome's (made ressies a month ago) in CityWalk, Three Broomsticks (long wait), and Leaky Cauldron (longer wait and froze in the a/c). Otherwise we ate small meals from Tuk Tuk Market and the club level lounge. Bought VooDoo Donuts and ate them over two days. Long wait at 10 at night, and they didn't like the walk back to the hotel in the heat.

Did you try the RPR restaurants? Jake’s American Bar or Islands Dining? Seating is usually available at the hotel restaurants without a reservation.

We have a 2Q room (7th floor Club Level, T3). Were a bit worried when we got in as it looked like there was NO WAY our air mattress would fit, but then discovered we could move/roll the beds over and then the air mattress was able to fit near the window. [Note - Club level rooms are same size as other 2Q rms at RPR, they just have Club Lounge access added.]

I meant in the parks. Never had an issue back at RPR with club level food. There is no way to order food ahead in the parks like mobile order at Disney parks. The process at The Leaky Cauldron went like this: mobile ordered food at 10:45 AM. Saw there was a long line to get seating in restaurant. Can't prepare order until seated. Waited an hour for seating. Hit button to prepare order and waited another 20-30 minutes in a freezing restaurant (they did serve our drinks at least). Then got food.

We will be in a King Suite for our next trip. What requests should we make for the best location with this type of room? We would love a good view (pool/park) and the most convenient for transportation and food. It will be our first time at this hotel. We stayed at Hard Rock in April and it was more compact it seems. Thanks for any help!

Question...as I look up the menu for the Bula bar and grille....I notice this
View attachment 578334
Is the %18 service charge the gratuity? Just confused...thanks

You know I'm actually glad to see that on a menu. Universal gets a lot of guests from other countries. They don't always understand American style tipping practices. Plus, the general horrible people who don't tip.

Ohh I wanna pick your brain. We have only stayed at Hard Rock club level in previous trips. Are the club rooms at rpr all on the same floor? I liked that at Hard Rock.

I think staffing is still a problem. Sounds like they are focusing on ride ops to keep the crowds on rides. Food service is suffering from the staffing shortages. They just raised the starting pay to $15 an hour, hopefully that helps

Not always.

For example we have always stayed on the 6th floor (personal preference), and if they are busy you will see people put on the 6th floor, and I`ve read of some being on the 5th floor.

It can happen, most people are on the 7th floor, but you can be put on the floors below on occasion.

got this in an email recently for my trip starting tomorrow. I will try to post what is available in the lounge when we are there this week. Not sure if we will hit it at all times or not but I will attempt to get photos.

Does that mean that I should request 7th floor? We are going over Columbus weekend, it will be busy.

It wouldn`t do any harm to say you`d prefer to be on the same floor as the lounge if it`s going to be a busy time you`re visiting.
