I've been staying here often for the last 20 years and other than using an SNA once, I've never sniffed a suite. No matter how much money I've paid, and sometimes it's been a lot, I always get upgraded to a club room. But now, twice in a row with two stays separated by about 10 days, I've gotten a suite while using a free night from one of the recent free night promos. Is that the magic trick to getting a suite here?
By the way, as this must be one of the most expensive Cat 5 hotels, I highly recommend using the free nights here if you have a late night arrival or early departure from CDG.
