Re: Advice needed from my fellow Universal fans

I called Loews yesterday to book our room and learned that they did not have a free upgrade suite big enough for all of us--it only accommodates 3, so we are booked at Portofino Bay. They have a suite that accommodates 5 on the free upgrade. The only thing that Royal Pacific could offer me is an upgrade to a water view room. After staying in a deluxe room at HRH, there is absolutely no way we could cram into a 335 square foot room at RPR. We spend way too much time in our room when we get to Universal for that.

I am fine with staying at PBH, but the kids are a little disappointed. We stayed at RPR on our very first trip to Universal, and they have very fond memories of that resort. Is PBH furthest from the parks? Do we just need to resign ourselves to using the water taxis instead of walking on our upcoming trip?
