I believe at an Embassy Suite you always get a two room suite, don't you?

I belonged to that "rare" group of Diamonds and was Diamond for 10 years (and still am until 2009) but have now shifted 90% of my (real) high end business (only European Hilton and Conrads) to Starwood. They give me as top tier consistent real (suite) upgrades and all promotions available. On first sight, it looks more difficult to obtain free nights with them but at the end of the day (with online booking bonus', Platinum amenity and promos) it turns out to be by far easier.
