American Express Membership Rewards - Hay-Adams Perks

Anybody stayed here lately on an Amex PLat rez? Am wondering whether the price is worth it...our corporate rate is more than $150 less than the cheapest Amex rate.

On the other hand, has anyone ever gotten an Amex-related upgrade when not paying the Plat rate? I am there for two weeks beginning next Monday and am wondering if that might influence them.

You only get the Amex Plat Amenities if you reserve/book the FHR (Fine Hotel and Resort) Rate. Otherwise, no Benefits.

Actually, I have gotten the platinum upgrade on a room when not paying the plat rate...it's up to the hotel whether or not they want to help you out.
