Can a Plat please check an FHR rate for me?

I have an upcoming trip to an FHR property (probably several properties). I would like to know if the FHR rate is competitive, and if so, I will upgrade to plat for the 25k bonus that is currently being offered to me.

Capri Palace Hotel & Spa
6/13/12 for 1 night
Cheapest room type and rate

Also, I've noticed different cancellation windows on separate sites, so that info would be helpful as well. Thank you!

Thanks for the replies. Hotels.com is giving me the cheapest room at $618 (€470). Granted, it's for a smaller room, but still a significant price difference. Any idea (once I have the card), if I can have FHR call and try to book the cheaper room under FHR benefits? The hotel website offers the cheaper room at €522, but hotels.com is still cheaper at €470. Perhaps FHR could book at €522 and offer the FHR benefits.

I haven't had any success trying to get a corporate rate with FHR and it will probably be the same with the hotels.com rate. You get extra benefits with FHR, but usually not the best rate.

It appears this property can also be booked though a Virtuoso travel agent.

http://www.virtuoso.com/exclusiveoff...%20or%20Resort (Scroll down)

...with substantially the same benefits, except the late checkout. Anyone can book through a Virtuoso agency, no particular credit card is required. I believe ABG who replied earlier is one such agent.

Thanks for all of the help. Would someone mind checking the following:

Palazzo Sasso
6/11-6/13 (2 nights)

I am seeing 470 Euro on Visa Signature portal and curious how FHR compares. Thank you.
