There is no EL at this hotel. I was provided the drink of my choice at the Long Bar.

Cleaners in three of Shanghai's swankiest hotels were found to be using the same dirty rag or sponge to clean the toilet, sink, and cups

With the Diamonds who have visited this property and received upgrades, did you book directly with Hilton or through 3rd party? When I checked in late last night, I'm getting mixed signals from the front desk - got upgraded from a double queen with no view to city view but when I inquired about breakfast, that was declined as I booked through Amex Travel. Will have another attempt with the front desk in the morning.

Before MAR's takeover, SPG booked via FHR had qualified for full SPG night credit & elite benefits, along with whatever associated benefits from FHR. Will test this out next year, and see what happens.

Does Hilton only open standard room availability for later dates at a certain time? All of September through the remainder of the calendar, all the standard rooms are blocked off. I want to use my free night! I thought September would open up on March 1st but it did not.
