Historically, TSU usage at this property has not been recommended since the standard suite is not a true suite and isn't much bigger than the 11th floor rooms with the greenhouse/canopy windows that Globs are often given anyway. Given this property's reputation, I doubt they would give any further discount after applying a TSU.
It does seem like a good price, roughly $840 at 1.8 cents per point. Unfortunately, given the recently deteriorating condition in France, I now have 3 extra TSUs that may expire. So I was thinking if it saved me a hundred a night on the upgrade to the fancy suite, it would be worth it.
My concierge only sends email to hotels, this seems like a call to the front desk manager. I assume the $300 offers are in advance? Or just day of?
Thanks for the tips!
