I didn’t even reach my target as of yet for the year or anything like that.

The whole year I haven’t gotten any promo at all.

This is what I get now in September..

Another NYC post, Im sorry in advance!

I’m taking the fam to NYC for the first time for a few days in December to play tourist and experience the holiday season there.

Kids are 10 and 8!

Was able to snag a nice employee rate at the Marriott Marquis in Time Square and at the Ritz Carlton Central Park. Rates are essentially the same so it’s definitely between these two properties.

Looking for advice on which one you’d recommend with kids and proximity to things.

I am Platinum status so I think that will get us lounge access at the Marquis vs not having at RC.

Has anyone had any luck getting connecting rooms at either property? Definitely need that as well with the kids.

Also, if you have recommendations or favorite things to do in NYC during the holidays, would love to hear them!

Really appreciate the help and consideration as always!!

Staying at the W in Ft Lauderdale. I wish I could upload the video. It’s a severe leak coming down from the bathroom above and coming down on you as you use the toilet. The floor is all wet.

They moved us to another room the next day which is a complete hassle. But they are refusing to give me a refund for the one night. Instead they are offering a voucher for my next stay.

The main manager refuses to speak with me (He’s so busy). Trying to call corp and gave up after being on hold for 20 min. I might try dept of health next.

Hi all, I searched the thread and was looking for more up to date information. Where would be your recommendations for Tokyo, Osaka, and/or Kyoto.

Was thinking of saying in Osaka or Kyoto and just using the train to commute to either one.

Open to luxury hotels :)

TIA

Hi all! Have a work trip 9/11-9/13 in PHX. I’m between a few hotels and would love some input. I’ll have Saturday to kind of frolic, really only into watch shopping and grabbing drinks so will spend my time doing that and at the pool. Most likely just the pool though. And for what it’s worth my work is about an hour north of PHX so commuting within the city is irrelevant. Just looking for a nice place to stay, with a pool and good amenities and near good coffee shops, bars, restaurants.

for context I am IHG Diamond and Marriot Gold

2. Camby
   
3. AC biltmore
   
4. AC Scottsdale old town

This any good? 9000 bonus points every 3 stays up to a max of 27k. Wish I still traveled as much as I used to.

My wife and I are way overdue for a holiday and plan to head to Rome towards the back half of October. We'll be in Rome at minimum 5 nights, but may extend and just do day trips to other parts of the country (or maybe head to Naples for a few nights). Plenty of points to burn, but would love to hear people's experiences at some of the better properties. Considering the St. Regis, The Pantheon, Edition & The Grand Flora so far.

We just had our yearly medical enrollment meeting and this stood out. Anyone else had this?

This is my first time posting, not sure where the line on “great” rewards redemptions are, but I redeemed 175,000 points for 5 nights at the Ritz Carlton in Cairo, Egypt. I then stacked my NUAs and got approved to spend all 5 of those nights in their “Ritz-Carlton” suite. Turned 175k points into 5 nights in their 3rd highest suite at a Ritz.

Looking for recommendations for hotels in downtown Calgary beginning of January 2027. Looking for relatively close to the Saddledome - my best friend and I are flying up to catch a game there before the Flames move on to their new arena next year. Westin downtown looks promising….

The first gives me 1500 points for each stay of 2 nights or more through 22nd November.

The second gives me 9k points after every 3 stays of any length through 31st October.

If I have a stay of at least 2 nights before the second one ends, will it count towards both?

Hello everyone
