I'm old enough to remember the Vegas Years, although was too young at the time to go see Elvis in Vegas. Fans always commented that Elvis was at his best in Vegas -- relaxed, chatty (talking to the crowd a lot), and despite it's large size, it was a fairly intimate performance venue with lots of direct audience contact. (Watch the video all the way to the end to see the audience) The statue was unveiled by Barron Hilton just outside the showroom where Elvis performed, and it stood there for...

DrFumblefinger: I really appreciate your feedback and extra information you provided in the above comment. As Elvis would say "Thank you. Thank you very much. Your a beautiful audience. Thank you."

I like having a desk in my hotel room. A sofa or easy chair would work, but I dislike working in bed. I hope we're given some options.

Hawthorn Suites on Westwood Blvd. Orlando do a great breakfast ! Pity they don't do WiFi too.

Breakfasts have improved at American hotels, but are nowhere near the quality of what most European hotels have to offer. There it's worth looking at tripadvisor reviews to see who comments on the quality of breakfast.

There are a few breakfast items that most Europeans aren't keen on. Waffles - Muffins - Cinnamon Bread - Maple Syrup - Grape Jelly - Margarine - Turkey Bacon - Pretzels - Granola and Tea made with water that's not at the boil. Stuff we don't buy at home. Stuff we don't see in the food stores.

I still don't know if it's any cheaper booking direct. For instance, on Hyatt site , It's 10% off is off standard rates. I often see higher % discounts on booking.com for Hyatt hotels.
