HOTEL QUESTIONS
We asked the Holiday Inn this very same question, below is the Answer from Christine (Director of Sales for Holiday Inn – Disney Springs)
Hi Danny,
You are correct that the rates the weekend prior to Tidal Wave are lower, there are several factors that play into this:
Demand – The Tidal Wave event falls over a weekend with high demand in the area which increases the rates, this is why throughout the year you will see different pricing from day to day and week to week
Flow Through – Pre and Post days of Tidal Wave are difficult days for the hotel to sell rooms since the hotel is not able to offer stays that overlap with the Tidal Wave event
Area Hotels – In looking at the other hotels in the area with similar events we are offering competitive rates. In addition we do not inforce policies such as mandatory valet and no outside food or drink in the pool area during the events.
Packages – We do not offer packages during special events such as Tidal Wave, our parking team requires extra staffing and longer hours which prevents us from discounting parking, however we do waive the Resort Fee of $12 for all guests staying under the Tidal Wave block
Staffing/Additional Cost – An event such as Tidal Wave does require additional staffing for all departments, more than any other event throughout the year. Things that we offer such as the poolside bar and grill concessions are at no additional cost to Tidal Wave and the hotel breaks even on these.
Anyone staying in your room, MUST be added to your hotel room
An overnight parking charge of $12 for self-parking or $18 for valet will apply to all guests with vehicles. There is a daily parking fee of $5 for any vehicles parked for more than one hour. Hotel transportation can be arranged through Mears transportation, Lyft or Uber.
We have negotiated to have this fee waived, but it will show up on your confirmation. *Note that the resort fee is only waived for the host hotel at the Holiday Inn. Overflow hotels will still charge a resort fee.
No, this must be done through Eventbrite ONLY
One night stay will be charged in April, second night stay in May and remainder upon checkout.
We understand things come up and people need to cancel. Cancellations made prior to May 1, 2019 will be honored and a full refund issued. Any cancellations after May 1, will be charged a one night stay, unless we can sell your room reservation. To cancel your reservation please send an email to stay@hiorlando.com with a cancel request prior to April 1,2019
Yes, make sure you sign up at IHG.com
You may be placed on a waitlist for the host hotel by sending an email to stay@hiorlando.com
