Why Virtuoso, just book direct or via the Relais & Chateaux website

Why? Many hoteliers to whom I spoke have a very tarnished opinion regarding Virtuoso.

In my experience being a regular guest of a hotel chain or marketing group and contacting them directly you get more than what Virtuose advertises claiming these perks as their USP.

At many occasions I saw unhappy Virtuoso guests claiming their freebies which were forgotten during the process .
