Ritz-Carlton Herzliya (AKA Ritzaliya) Master Thread

[Denverite]

Yes I said im Ritz Gold so can we have an upgraded room.
We were a bit early (around noon) so the room wasn't ready yet, we had a seat and waited.
My wife spoke in french to the girl doing checkin so that may have made her want to help us more.
A couple minutes later she came to us with keys to a suite

Wow, amazing, especially on Sukkot!  Any other benefits from Status?  I understood others to say no free breakfast but is that different if you have the Ritz card?  Even if we were able to score a suite upgrade like you, would that suite have fit a family of 5?  I'd probably book 2rms to be safe but I'm just curious.  Thanks for your help!

late check out
We got free breakfast but that was unofficial.
The suite I got just had a King bed and a couch or two in the living room.

Does anyone have any experience using a reward certificate or booking with points and having more than 2 guests in the room? My husband and I want to bring our kids (5,4,2) with us, and wonder if they would force us to book two rooms or not.

why are you telling them?

[nhrca]

I wouldn't necessarily, but it might be evident upon check in.  I have never been but it looks like one might pass a lot of personnel before being able to get into the room, so I wasn't sure.  Just wondering if anyone has had experiences taking children with them and if they tend to charge for the additional littles one or don't allow it at all.

3 per room worked fine for me.

This place knows how to handle agent bookings...
Just booked a client in the studio suite with a confirmed upgrade at the time of booking to the 1 bedroom suite - not the executive which is around 750 a night - the one which is 1475 a night - and I was able to use the advance purchase price Room only rate - so came out to 468 a night - with a 1k upgrade to 1475 a night suite - 7 nights... 7k upgrade = crazy stuff. breakfast free because of my "stars status" (agency loyalty program).... a couple other perks in there too (managers note on arrival, special welcome for stars guests, $100 hotel credit for spa - or restaurant... pretty cool..

Now still trying to figure out what hechsher is used for breakfast - and then I can go on my Fam trip.

Making an award booking for someone else at Herziliyah and have 2 questions - does the hotel offer late checkout on motz shab (i assume they do) and does the person need to bring his passport?
