Interesting. I am not super famous but am marginally well-known in certain circles. Many hotels I go to someone recognizes me in the lobby - it is nice when I see a hotel try to personalize the experience for me. Even if they know of me in advance it's nice when they make the effort to show they care by being as up to date in their knowledge about me or my preferences - if that means a bowl of blue berries, a FT article clipping about my company or a nicer upgrade, I'll take it.

I assume they might know me, so I do not consider it stalking. I don't mean to come off as DYKWIA by any means so please don't attack me here. It is what it is and what I have to deal with
