Would anyone be able to shed some light as to a shortened version of any tips/tricks/etc for frequent guests? This naturally seemed like an appropriate place to ask...

Many thanks for your time.
Less about status, but if you are staying 12-15 nights a month consistently at the same hotel, be sure to chat up front desk staff / management so they get to know you. As a frequent guest at the same hotel, you should be in place for some (informal) favors. If you fancy a certain room / type, make sure they are aware. If you need an early check in one trip, give them some notice and they will likely accommodate. Things like that.

Also make sure you sign up for bonus promotions as available. Under "My promotions" in your on-line account.
