Has anyone ever seen a 3 BR penthouse available on Hilton.com?

I have seen every unit size on hilton.com EXCEPT for 3 BRs. Now I know that they are not that many 3 BRs, so chances are small. But I was just wondering.

Going rate online for a 2 BR Oceanview is around $489 to 509 per night plus 11.41% tax. Just wondering what the 3 BR range might be if they were ever available.

As I write this there's one available on the HGVC site beginning January 23, 2010. Don't know about Hilton.com, though.

There are 6 total 3-bdrm penthouse units. We spent a week in one several years ago. It was awesome.

Has anyone stayed in a pure 3 BR vs the 3 BR lockoff unit. Just wondering as the description on HGVC says 3 BR 2 Bath, yes the floorplans for a 3 BR show 3 Baths. So just a little confused.

TIA

There are no 3-bd lock-off units. In addition, all 3-bd units are Penthouses. There is one three bedroom units with 2 1/2 bath but that's the one with the best view.

I think the floors plans posted in this thread would beg to differ. There are 3 units that are 2 BR Penthouses that have a logoff studio. As there are 3 studios available on the 24th floor. Those units combined make 3 BR lockoffs. It is the 2 BR penthouse that has 2 1/2 baths, 2 upstairs with the bedroom and 1/2 down off the living area.

My guess is that since it has been posted that there are six 3 BR unit my guess is that Hilton has permanently considered the corner unit A (see post #5 this thread) remains a 3 even though it can be locked off.

Has anyone stayed in 2472 before? As this is that lockoff unit.

I guess I was lucky since I stayed in five different 3-bd units and none of them were lock-offs. BTW, the floor plan/interval description that I have lists five 3-bd units, six 2-bd units and three studios. If all the studios are lock-off capable, then units 2472, 2462/63 and 2470/71 are lock-offs since the studios are in locations A/D/K

Which of the 3 BRs would be your top pick?

We'd love to stay in the penthouse (only need 2 BR's) on our trip of 10/31-11/8,
I'm watching daily, but if I miss it, please give me a heads up!

I wonder why it only has 2 1/2 baths and not 3 1/2. Weird. As the upstairs looks on the floor plan to be the same size as any of the other 3 BRs. Of course the living room is much larger than the others.

Thanks for the tip.

The strange part is that underneath the spiral staircase, next to the 1/2 bath, there's a "room" bigger than the 1/2 bath. It is not a closet but just a small area with a door. I didn't think to verify that room and the 1/2 bath is separated by a common wall but everyone commented why that area wasn't just converted to a full bath. Of course, I wouldn't mind staying there again! I can live with it:)
