Note that in cities, the issue of limited service hotels offering the same/better experience as the baseline full service hotel is not a new issue. There has long been little difference between say a Courtyard rate and a Westin or Sheraton or Marriott rate in a city like Chicago. The hotels that are now getting the higher rates are stuff like Autograph/Luxury collection, traditional luxury brands, boutique style hotels, etc. Very few of these hotels have things like lounges
