"New" ADR policy - LOVE!

[CuteAsMinnie]

So is it a bit disconcerting to anyone else that so many people have double-booked reservations in the past that popular choices are now showing availability with the new policy? Double-booking just never would occur to me since it seems so rude to other guests.

I must agree! It would never dawn on me to double book a dining reservation! Ever! Or even try to see if it was possible. Seriously? Wow.

Guess I'm totally in agreement with the new ADR policy.

I just got back. I must say; I don't know if it was off-season or the new policies. But, I was able to eat wherever and whenever I wanted without ADRs.

I just got an ADR for lunch @ Le Cellier in April and I had my choice of times on a Saturday. Love this change!

The difference in finding available reservations before as opposed to now is remarkable.

Someone posted on another board a few days ago that they spoke to one of the restaurant managers about the new policy, when they visited last week. I'm think it was at Le Cellier, but that could be wrong. Anyway, the manager said their no show rate had dropped from 30% to 5%, since the change. That's a big difference to say the least.

I am so shocked that I was able to get the Castle and Le Cellier for end of June, first of July with no problems online and at my choice of time. Unheard of in the past, under the 180 days. I'm loving this! I didn't want to waste 2TS on just one place in relationto le Cellier though so just got a lunch reservation instead for 1 TS. I was okay with the 2TS for the castle because I expected that. I don't think le Cellier deserves the Signature designation, IMO. I don't mind giving a cc for the reservation because we have never missed an ADR yet and don't plan to. That may be why so many reservations freed up, people don't want to guarantee with a cc because they know they may or may not show up. If it continues to be this easy to get reservations on a short notice, we may try it without the DDP next time and see what happens.
