When I contacted them, it was no tubs in the regular rooms but I could pay 5 grand for my 5 nights AND they’d still take my points, lol. I’m traveling with a good friend and got all our nights on points- 2 rooms. I’m not arriving until Wednesday so it’ll be interesting to see if we get upgraded or not. They’ve been sold out for about 2 weeks. Under SPG, I was staying on points and still got an upgrade at Athen’s famed Hotel Bretagne. Both my friend and I had our own rooms and baths, a chocolate “bar” with all kinds of candy daily. We got fresh roses and unbelievable gifts! The rooms connected through a special living room. Then in Crete we were upgraded by paying a little cash to add to the points. We had our own bi-level suite, 2 bathrooms and our own pool! The Luxury Collection outdid itself. I continued getting lucky in the states with Luxury Collection suites, and was shocked by our own little home at Vedema. Every one knew your name, the little houses were scattered about, and ours was divided by a living room. So on points, we had a 2 bedroom/ 2 bath suite, and it exceeded every expectation and more. I had 5 SNA’s; it would’ve been nice to use them. I don’t know what they’ll give us, but after 4 months of planning, I’m hopeful but not crazy!
did you get the upgrade? What was your experience at the hotel? We arrive in a week ! Any hints?
