"Room Service" is the eighth mission of the The Ronin story arc in Saints Row 2.

Explosions rock downtown

Overview[]

As Playa, Johnny Gat and Pierce plan their next move to stop The Ronin, Dane Vogel, the CEO of Ultor, sets foot inside Saints Hideout to tell the 3rd Street Saints that the relationship between Ultor and The Ronin is over. Vogel starts an alliance with the 3rd Street Saints by informing them where Kazuo and Shogo Akuji are hiding out. Playa and Gat leave for the hotel, though not without Pierce staying behind to watch over Vogel in case it's a trap.[1]

Playa and Gat return after destroying the hotel (although the Akujis are not there at the time) and allow Vogel to leave. Just as he does, however, Playa pulls him to one side and asks why Ultor went to The Ronin and not the 3rd Street Saints; Vogel simply replies, "You were in a coma and we couldn't find Julius... timing is everything". Among the wreckage of the hotel, a shamed Kazuo notes to Shogo how his son continues to disappoint him.[2]

Story[]

Upon completion of the Mission, this description is available at Newspaper Clipboards.

Citizens were shocked as a downtown hotel was rocked by explosions earlier today. Witnesses report seeing Ronin and Saints fighting inside the hotel before the explosions began. Claims of an individual base jumping from the top floor of the hotel into the atrium have yet to be confirmed.

Gameplay[]

Room Service Base Jumping
Head to the Ronin hotel

On the final floor, be aware of a Ronin equipped with an RPG Launcher near the marker.

Head to the suite and kill the Ronin Lieutenants

Trivia[]

Newspaper rn08 Room Service

The Stilwater Gazette newspaper clipping from completion screen and Newspaper Clipboard.

  • Dex's fate is revealed in this mission; Dane Vogel offered him a job at Ultor prior to the events of Saints Row 2. More information can be found on him while starting the bonus mission "Revelation".
  • The game data files define an extra section to this mission; originally the player would have had to visit an arms dealer to buy the bombs used in the hotel. This arms dealer had a unique "Arms Dealer" variant of the Phoenix vehicle.
  • As with the previous mission, "Visiting Hours", the map can be confusing during this mission as it shows enemies on all floors of the hotel rather than just those on the current floor, thus showing enemies that aren't there.
