CrusinCyndi Posted April 12, 2015 #51 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I did not, I'm sorry. I saw many pictures on Tripadvisor and our room looked exactly like the Executive King Suite pictured. I did take the following photos from our room. ;) Did you have a step out "Juliette" balcony, or one with table and chairs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

js Posted April 14, 2015 #55 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I signed up for the Hilton MVP promotion and saved $45 for our upcoming stay in April. Can I ask how you signed up. I have Hilton Honors but when I go to MVP it's asking me for a pin code after my HH number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills blasters Posted April 14, 2015 #56 Share Posted April 14, 2015 You don't have to sign up for MVP. You just have to be a Hilton Honors member. It is asking you the pin to sign in to your Hilton Honors acct. You must have given them a pin a long time ago. If you go to the web site, there should be a place to go to remind you of your pin number. Claudia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to book with a specific site or any Hilton Hotel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, they know nothing about that rate. Sometimes it is a good deal, other times it is the same as the Hilton site. Claudia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamesEM Posted April 15, 2015 #60 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'm a Hilton Honors member and just called the Embassy Suites on 17th St. and was told they do not participate in the MVP program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberta Quilter Posted April 15, 2015 #61 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'm a Hilton Honors member and just called the Embassy Suites on 17th St. and was told they do not participate in the MVP program. Well, they did because I have a booking there under the MVP for April 30th. I think one has to make the reservation through the MVP website, and not by calling the hotel directly. Maybe that was the problem. I would try again but using the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nat9511 Posted April 15, 2015 #62 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I always book through hiltonfamilymvp.com for the MVP rate. I would guess there may be some blackout dates but have never experienced that. Ihe site also lists other Hilton properties in Ft. Lauderdale. You cannot get the mvp rate by calling the hotel.

bills blasters Posted April 15, 2015 #63 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'm a Hilton Honors member and just called the Embassy Suites on 17th St. and was told they do not participate in the MVP program. I have booked there with the MVP rate at least 6 nights before. If you go on the MVP site, you see that they do participate. Like I said earlier, the rates may be the same as booking right through Hilton. If the hotel is close to being full they do not offer the discount. The best time to find the rate is many, many months before the booking. If you call them they will not know what you are talking about. I found that out when I wanted to add a night on to an existing reservation and wanted to know if they would match the price. I called the hotel direct, and also called the 800 number. No one had any idea what I was talking about and would not give me the rate. When are you staying in FLL? Claudia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js Posted April 15, 2015 #64 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) For an extra $31.33 per person, $93.99 total, I can book Embassy Suites to include shuttle service from FLL to Hotel and Hotel to Port Everglades. What is Port Everglades? Is it the cruise port? I am sailing RCCL Independence of the Seas on December 28 and Navigator on January 31. I think $95 for both transfers would be a good deal do you agree (if Port Everglades is the cruise port and they do morning shuttle). Please let me know. Thank you SO much.

bills blasters Posted April 15, 2015 #65 Share Posted April 15, 2015 A taxi from the airport to the hotel is only $15. That will be for 3 people. The taxi from the hotel to Port Everglades will also run about $15. That will be for 3 people. So for $30 total you will get the same transportation by taxi, and not have to wait for shuttles.

Claudia Dang! Thank you. We are a group of 11 so wanted to stay together. Let me figure it out and work the numbers since one person (either my sister or I) will be paying for the van/cab to take us to/from airport to/from hotel/port. I can always just cancel and rebook. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
