I prefer to hunt big game. One kill feeds my family for the week. Gators, or the occasional Living Seas dolphin.

Don't forget the lizards make a quick snack if you are fast enough to catch them

You just took Quick Service to the next level. How do we monetize this initiative?

I'll get an email out to Bob and see if we can get this in front of the board for approval today.
You can throw a couple of lizards into the rice cooker with two cups of rice...

Bob had better not be staying at the Contemporary and expect to get anything to eat after Midnight.

Sure you can. We're talking 5 star rated hotels here, not 5 stars on yelp.
Where? Regular or club level?
I've never experienced such a thing...but, I'm not a VIP and don't stay in some exclusive club room.. so maybe that's why.lol

Don't take this the wrong way, I don't mean to offend, but you do seem to live the high life. Nothing wrong with that.
Membership at various hotels and resorts often has benefits that become available to you once you reach certain status or spend a certain dollar amount. You don't even have to stay at a 5 star hotel to benefit from a lot of perks discussed in the thread.

True that. Holiday Inn Express always has breakfast waiting for me in the morning. I don't even have to call ahead.

When I say Five Star. I'm talking about places like The Plaza, Mandarin Oriental or even The Four Seasons in NYC and Similar places worldwide
Places where the best suite is five figures per night
As for travel VIP status I'm Hilton Diamond

Yeah, I've stayed at plenty of 5 star hotels...never stayed in a 5 figure per night room while at one though...I don't even do 4 figure.... maybe that's why.
I can safely say that I'll never stay in a 5 figure per night room..so I'll probably keep living the tough life of not ordering whatever/whenever or getting tickets to sold out shows.
I'll leave that to the high rollers..they deserve it for spending that much.
I imagine Bob has hot and cold running Cast Members to take care of his whims while in the CR.

So, this will be sort of.. to steal convention customers that usually order take out from pizza and other delivery style food?

I hadn't even thought of that angle, but now that you mention it...
I could be all wrong, but I really think a service like this is appealing to someone who is working, on the go, and doesn't want to deal with a long walk/long waits at the resort QS. Especially someone who often stays at hotels that already offer this type of service.
Heck, I know that once I get back from a park and put my son to bed, the last thing I want to do is take the walk from YC over to the BC Marketplace for a subpar sandwich. Now I can have that subpar sandwich delivered to my door!
Room service is actually a loss leader for a lot of hotels, despite the high markup of food. How, I'm not sure, but it is. As I mentioned previously, this has become relatively common for mid-tier hotels, especially those with a lot of convention or business travelers. This kind of thing would make complete sense for Disney's moderate resorts to do. However, Disney is currently struggling with how to lure high-spending luxury travelers to their own resorts, rather than staying at the Four Seasons or the Waldorf. This kind of thing is not the way to do it. Room service is a luxury and, for many people, something they look forward to when splurging on a nice hotel.
