Marriott Waterfront Seattle

5 stays there since making Plat, 3 true one-bedroom suites.

As a Gold, I never received the suites in about 15 stays - it's pretty clear that it's a Plat thing. (As a Gold, I usually got a high floor balcony room - which is pretty nice to have when the weather is nice.) Also, this hotel sells out often in the summer, so I imagine if I'm still traveling to Seattle this often in June, the upgrade mix will change.

Side perk: I've occasionally gotten a full bottle of a good local Merlot here, not the typical 1/2 bottle of Meridien.
