I thought it was a RC

Great to hear, although I find Accor's management spends far too little time multiplying the number of their high-end brands, vs. e.g. ensuring uniform standards or improving coverage (seems like they can even poach a property off Marwood!)... :rolleyes:

Orient Express is currently listed as a brand NOT participating in Le Club :confused:

Actually I wonder if they are not participating like Raffles, then why people will stay there? For me I rather stay in Shangri-la or other brand.

It is my understanding that Raffles is LeClub participating (with an upgrade ceiling of a Junior Suite), but not Accor Plus participating. Am I mistaken?
So go back to my first point, If you cannot earn and enjoy LCAH in OE, so why it is matter that OE is part of Accor? |
Maybe its like Ritz Carlton Reserves .... bearing RC name yet not participated in RC Rewards program |

If a hotel is not participating, then it's essentially the same as staying in an independent hotel XYZ. While I might stay in such hotel if I hear that it's very good, and if there are not a lot of decent alternatives in that town, but in Bangkok given the choices available there is not a snowball's chance in hell that I will stay in any kind of non-participating hotel, Accor or whatever other brand.
