Four Seasons Hotels at discount rates?

[ibizenco247]

Hello everybody,
I am a big fan of Four Seasons. Where do I get interesting discount rates? Their homepage seems to have no interesting deals. Maybe you could tell me where to book. Thanks a lot.

In general, they don't. FS prefers to do things like throwing in extra nights or extra amenities.

If you book through a Virtuoso agent you will get extra benefits - see here: http://www.fourseasons.com/co_op/pp_standard_amenities/

If you have a Plat or Cent Amex charge card you will find some properties also do special deals through Fine Hotels & Resorts: https://www134.americanexpress.com/t...csg&cdtyp=plat

For booking standard rates, you could try using Expedia or another booking site in conjunction with a cashback site (like the UK's www.quidco.com) which can get you a c 10% rebate.

Or simply ring the hotel you want and try to do a deal on the phone ....

Are all Virtuoso agents FS's Preferred Partners?

No. There are several Virtuoso agencies that are not FSPP, and there are some FSPP agencies that are not Virtuoso.

Hi Sarah - You pretty much have to go through the Four Seasons website property by property to find out what specials are being offered where (and when). Also - you can subscribe to the Four Seasons newsletter - and it will email you news about various specials. Robyn
