Does anyone have the in-room mini bar selection and price list please? When you crack a bottle do you buy the whole thing?
apologies if already answered trying to do this with a broken elbow and tried to go back in time but not sure I made it through all pages.
thank you!

I think there is just one poster that has reported a cocktail hour. There certainly was no cocktail hour when we were there. So if it came and went, it had a very brief lifespan.

Also, how was the ac and the internet in the OWV? We both may have to work for a few hours while there and will need a decent internet connection for video conferencing. Sigh.

I was there in February and the cocktail hour was from either 4-5 or 5-6 (can't remember now, and actually on our last night they told us it was really only 45 minutes, not an hour) at Eau Bar. It was for elites only and had a small selection of drinks that are complimentary.
