I’ve gotten upgraded on stays pretty much 80% of the time in Asia. I just happened to use a FNA for this particular hotel. During this trip, I was upgraded for all the other Hiltons and they were all out of pocket although they were much cheaper at $200 a night but many times I pay out of pocket for suites upwards of $1000. I would be upset if I paid $800 for this suite, let alone a basic room. Maybe I’d pay $600 for the suite.

I’ve also been to the Andaz and was upgraded whilst having no status. Another friend of mine headed over to the Andaz during low season and was upgraded to their sky suite and sent video proof.

So to answer your question, Andaz Tokyo is just as big and will upgrade you on award stays and it’s much newer. Idk if you’ve been to the Andaz, but their city room is quite new compared to the Conrad and very sleek. Their bath trumps our suite’s.
