No harm in asking. The worst they can say is no.

For award stays with the wife I call the plat desk and get the e-mail of the general manager and send a note requesting a suite upgrade if available.

Always respectful and my hit rate is about 90% over the last 5 years.

While on business I could not care less about suite upgrades.
