Be our guest...
I received this e-mail a few days ago
But when I tried to register, I was told that there is no more room for me...
I really like that kind of bla bla "you are one of our best customer...we are inviting you....ah but sorry, if you click more than 30 seconds after this e-mail has been sent, it's too late". Next time, please really invite people or do not invite them at all.
I know a gold member, based in Paris as me, who received the same invitation (same date) but for Sofitel Le Faubourg. Does any of you guys have received this as well ? Is it limited to Paris-based members ?
PS : a satellite out-of-topic point: there are often complaints on this forum about the poor English translations of Accor communications, but on this one, the French language was not so good too. Indeed it said "inscrivez-vous ds maintenant pour cet vnement qui prendra place le 23 novembre...". The bolded part is a literal translation from English of "which will take place", but we never say that in French. We would say "qui aura lieu" or " qui se tiendra".

Obviously you are not that valued Goldorak. It is a hard lesson after years of Le Club loyalty we all have to come to accept. 
No invitation was issued here, so I expect it to be Paris centred (or to be somewhat selective)

The idea is for the FT Accor members to hold their own event.
At a Intercontinental.

A suite with free minibar, no less. But no lounge access though.

As a loyal gold member, I just received an invite for an afterwork at Ibis Budget Porte de Montreuil 😂
Just joking. No invite for me.
