State of USH - What's Next?

[Rideguy70]

How do they possibly expect to get tourists to pay 300+ a night for USH, a single one-day park? This seems so poorly thought out. They should've built this in like, a decade after either opening a second gate or three or so more lands. USH is my home and personal favorite park, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is Euro Disney levels of empty.

The extra advantage for tourists getting a hotel at USH would not only be access to the park, but also be fairly central to lots of other LA tourist attractions with the metro just a short distance away. You could go from USH, to Chinese Theater, Hollywood & Vine, and DTLA without even needing a car.

Not to mention all the business events that could happen there. Plus, USH could do their own version of the Disney Magic Music Days, and invite groups from all over the stay and perform at the park. That alone would bring in considerable business, should they decide to go that route.

1) This is for people can can afford 300+ dollar a nights hotel which is not the majority of Americas or the world

All the people filling up Disneyland high end hotels disagree with you. In fact, I believe I saw a recent report that stays at high end hotels is actually going up. It's the lower end hotels that are suffering. So there's a lot of evidence that, in fact, people will pay that much.

I mean, also look at all the people who are getting the RIP and VIP experiences. There's currently no shortage of high paying guests.

Because I am arguing for the space to be used for the general public. Literally if you put theme park here EVERY single guest would go into it

If we had more land, and they were building a new land to go with the hotel. I'd had zero issues with it

My issues are
1) This is for people can can afford 300+ dollar a nights hotel which is not the majority of Americas or the world
2) We have limited space meaning using all this space limits where the theme park can go
3) I think USH needs a new into land, one with a sit down restaurant and VIP dinning location (this would also allow a small theater experience on french street)
4) This hotel is taking up funds/time that will limit how much investment the park gets until its complete


If this was the H lot, honestly I'd have not as much to say, the space makes sense for a hotel and space could work for theme park space but its not as good as the front area where we could add a new opening area and new land

Honestly, people can PM if they want to talk about it but know people are tried of my points but people keep quoting me and asking why, so I am answering

You are in over your head. I don't know how to continue this conversation with you.

You do realize a lot of people save up for a vacation right? That’s why $300 plus a night isn’t that big of a deal. When I was rigging at the Universal Hilton for St Denis Medical a couple of months ago, it was packed. They also had a pickup spot for those sightseeing tours there, and is also located conveniently next to a metro station. So people aren’t only staying there for Universal… they are staying there to be kind of centrally located to a lot of heavy tourism spots in Los Angeles. It’s also a safe place for families to stay since it’s part of the Universal property, and not located on a street in Hollywood or Downtown LA. Universal wants a piece of that, the demand is there, and it will serve a purpose. Idk what we’re doing here.

As for me, I am saving up enough money to actually live at the hotel.

a theme park land outside of the theme park entrance doesn’t make sense! This hotel is going on the front gate parking area. If anything H lot has more of a chance of becoming a theme park land then a freaking parking lot outside the park!! Why can’t you seem to comprehend this!
