The Sebel
Hurry - book and stay by December 31, 2014."
Is this a fairly common promotion with Accor? I'm an SPG Platinum and Hyatt Diamond but would be willing to try out Accor for this.
Also, is there anything to disqualify you from a back to back stay? I've been burned by Avis Car Rentals before and don't want to get burned by fine print again.
e.g. Booking a reservation on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at the same property would be okay and would qualify for 3 stays, right?
Booking 3 separate reservations from Monday to Wednesday would probably count as only 1 stay, I would imagine?
Thanks for any clarification.
