ERQ
yes, especially as you are not booking a base room. Ambassador on paid-qualifying stay has guaranteed +1cat room upgrade, and 4pm late checkout.

you can buy at Ambassador at hotel checkin too !

you'll also get a bogof certificate to book a weekens fri+sat or sat+sun with the second night free. Not quite the saving it appears as rate is based on flex nightly rate not advance rate.
