IC Beijing Sanlitun

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Hotel is nice but I am not happy. I know if you booked an award night they don't have to provide any benefits but I received NONE! ZERO, ZILCH. First time this has been the case and I have burnt through 400k points staying at IC's since becoming RA earlier this year. To be honest, it really put a downer on my stay and left a sour taste. Maybe this is a DYKWIA situation but meh.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked a reward night, received NO RA benefits

How are the rooms?
Nice and modern,

How is the exec. lounge?
No access

Did you receive a welcome gift?
Nope...

How was the minibar?
Meh, nothing special, I didn't get free drinks anyway...

What was good and what was bad?

-Good
- Location
- Style
- Desgn

-Bad
- No RA Benefits for point stays
- Staff were a bit stand off-ish

Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
50k points is a lot. I think it is too expensive for what it is.

Would you return?
Probably not, no.
