Once you choose your hotel, you’ll need to start thinking about dining. Between the reviews, menus, and reservation strategies, it’s a lot to sort through.

So, once you’ve figured out which of these rooms is for you, how can you get it? The best way to try would be to request your desired room (or the desired area of your room) at the front desk when you arrive at the hotel.

Also, once you make the request, prepare yourself to possibly wait a bit longer than for a general room.
