Paid Ambassador status gives me valuable perks and I don't have to qualify for anything. And considering the weekend night certificate it pays for itself.
Also, in locations that have top Intercontinental properties, they are usually comparable to the Hyatt and Starwood offerings, and in some cases better (e.g. Hong Kong, London).
Most of my stays are at higher end, non point earning hotels. But, I do dabble in R-C/SPG/Marriott, Intercontinental, and Hyatt. I also like GHA discovery as I am a fan of Anantara (no points but upgrades) and Shangri-La Golden Circle.
