Anyone know if a Diamond using a Diamond Suite upgrade - that usually gets a Park King Suite - ever gets upgraded to an Executive Suite?

We are booked with AMEX (using Capital One Hyatt certificates) with a Suite upgrade. I really don't like using AMEX Centurion Travel - yes, they have perks but the agents always know less than I do about where we are going and what we are doing - basically, they take orders.

Spoke to a Virtuoso agent and she contacted the hotel. They are prepared to sell me the Executive suite for 795 Euro per night rather than the 990 on the website. Also offered fourth night free with three paid nights - trip is five nights so it would be one free night. Stayed there once and it was pretty special. The other Virtuoso perks don't mean much as I get most stuff as a Diamond.

Thanks.

Arigato, Mike. I agree. All done.

My last stay at this property, I booked a Park Suite on awards (all points) and was further upgraded to Park Executive (I did email the property since I had some contact info based upon an earlier stay with some glitches (nothing major) and asked for consideration for a further upgrade and a view of Rue de la Paix rather than a courtyard view). This was the rare exception where I contact the property regarding an upcoming stay.

At this point, I'm happy to have the Executive Suite guaranteed for only $100 per night. Only sad thing is that this will possibly be my last Diamond stay and all the benefits are being duplicated by Virtuoso!

BTW everyone, one of the other benefits with a standard Virtuoso booking at this hotel is free limo service either from or to the airport. Nice!

The best part is that you probably have a good chance of an upgrade- the Prestige Suite and higher categories are a big step up from the executive suite.

The airport transfer is a huge benefit as this is normally charged at over EUR 200 each way.

While the airport transfer may be charged at over E200, I bet you can get a taxi to or from the airport for E80 or less.

Just curious, but is this room the "PARK SUITE KING" room? That's what I have listed on my upcoming reservation, but I really have no idea what to expect.

TIA!

I stayed at the PH Vendome this past May in a Park Suite King. I had two rooms, each with its own entrance and connected. One was a very nice bedroom and the other a sitting room with sofa, chairs and writing area. I also had TWO bathrooms, one off each room. You'll be pleased!

If you had two separate rooms and two bathrooms, it sounds like you had an Executive Suite. The Park Suite is a Jr. Suite (one larger room, not separate bedroom and living room).

If I applied and got the 2 night free Hyatt card for me and my wife that would be four nights .

Any way to get it done in time and get a suite without being a diamond. If not are the standard rooms worth crash coursing to get the CC and rushing to stay here.

I also have documentation that I am exclusive USA NYC red carpet concierge manager for my cousins hotel in ATH. DOES anyone think the reservations dept will mix and max ?
