One aspect that I don’t think is getting any attention: when this opens, won’t this be Universals first hotel that they fully operate?

The very first Universal hotel. No Loews or Chinese company running it.

Correct. I mentioned that a couple times upthread.

It’s exciting.

Anyone else living vicariously through all the influencer footage of the hotel today?

I’ve been pretty hyped about all of this. Hotel looks great but that entrance once you pass under the hotel is… not good.

So it’s just shade and benches for their “Main Street”. It seems super weird and underwhelming.

And the influencer hype has been its typical brand of annoying that I expect. Overhyping the littlest thing and obviously not daring say a negative word about it (obviously; or else they wouldn’t fly them out).

The stores and restaurants in-park better knock it out because that hotel room theme park view of the entrance is lacking… a lot. And that’s being nice.

The hotel is also, in my opinion, pretty whelming. Clearly the idea was a type of fun that roughly translates to "kids like tacky stuff, right? If it's really ugly that'll be fun, right?" and I just don't think that works all that well. I'm also pretty surprised by the relative lack of IP integration in the hotel. There are a handful of (not great) character artwork pieces near the elevator area and ... that's it! There's no Universal IP inside the hotel room. You could be staying at a kookie Hampton Inn for all you'd know.

Fun to have a view of the park from the room, but as was already mentioned ... that front entrance area looks bad. We'll see what the rest of the park looks like (and what it's like to be in it, obviously) but the park is very small. We all knew it was small, but it's hard to capture just how dinky the place looks from the hotel room window. You can basically see the entire park all at once.
