American Express Membership Rewards - Centurion - private members clubs

Anyone taken advantage of the private member club entry to various clubs (e.g. Attica, China Whites etc.) as part of the Centurion package?

Was hoping to get entry to Met Bar but looks like that's not included.

Yes, to Attica!

Can you please send me the list of clubs you know about to my e-mail address !

Thanks!

Feel free to post here as well if you feel that way!

The list changes regularly - its volatile.

Phoen Centurion UK up and ask - The Met BAr does ring a bell....

Thanks,
Richard

Current list (apparently) includes private clubs such as Bluebird, Dorchester, St. James etc, and non private clubs such as Attica, Cafe de Paris, Embassy, Home House, Purple bar and others.

72 hours notice needed for the private clubs, and exact names of up to 3 guests in addition to the cardholder.

I received a copy of the current list myself yesterday from Lifestyle. I think it is pretty poor to be honest .... only one or two places I'd even think about going to ...

Guys, as far as I know, US Centurion cardholders do not have anything like this at all (access to special clubs).

Not to mention AMEX still hasn't felt obliged to establish a US CENT cardholders' web site, so except for the original welcome packet we received, which was out of date when I received mine, US CENT cardholders get NONE, as in Z E R O, updated info from AMEX regarding CENT perks on a continual basis.

Not bad for $2500 annual fee, eh ? (dripping with sarcasm)

Not bad, at least Amex "allows" you to pay a higher annual fee. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Tried to get to China White last year by calling the same evening the Centurion number in Switzerland.
The told me that I had to have 12-24 hours notice to get a table but that Cent members are welcome....

For the restaurants in London 12-24 hours was always needed for a good table...

Usually in the US, I call the (Swiss) toll free Centurion number and they get reservations in club or restaurant for me.
It worked almost always.

kooks.

China White is not on the list, though I am told by Lifestyle that they can get members on the list on any night except for Fridays and Saturdays.

Would somebody please post all the clubs we have access to. I only know about the Ritz Club in London and the clubs in Hong Kong and Bejing.

Thanks

In fact when I called it was for Saturday night. Since I called "to late" they were not able to get us a table.

I guess with a Swiss Centurion Card it is different.

I believe they're removing China White from the list right now, after a number of Centurion guests were turned away (despite being on "the list") the previous weekend or two.

The Ritz Club is not on the list for UK members. I don't think I should post the full list here - call up Lifestyle, and they'll email you the list.

That's if they can figure out how to work the fax machine.

What you are referring to is the Digital Sender from HP:

In my opinion one of the best products I bought in the last three years.
