I call the Radisson SAS number in Norway (since that's where I live...) and ask them the price for a room for two and then how much it is with the "EBG-discount". Last time, in LIS, the "EBG-rate" was even
10% lower than the published single room rate(!), making it a very good deal indeed.
(In fact, considering that we then got an upgrade to a junior suite and ended up not paying (Hotel screw-up + 100% satisfaction guarantee) it was probably the best hotel deal I've had yet...
