Yeah, I have gold in both Marriott and Hilton, so the perks would be better than if I booked with SPG (also gold) or IHG (platinum). I've had luck with Accor in the past getting perks in Asia with "sign up" plat status, but I don't know of any current such offers. With Accor, I'd buy a room on one of their 50% off sales, because I don't currently have any vouchers.
