I'm Plat with Marriott, so how much more do I need to stay? I earn enough points that I stayed at the Paris Champs-Elysees (cat 8) on points for 5 nights last year and another 3 nights in ( cat 7) Cap d-Ail. And the last hotel I dream about is a Marriott. If I have to spend 75 nights a year in a cat 4 for work why on earth would I spend my free time at a cat 4? These certs are useless and my comment was that the marketing was B.S. to promote Cat 5 hotels when I'm offered Cat 4 reward.
