Emails from GMs
Seems they've started rolling out a new program. GMs are now contacting Globs in advance of their stay, during, and after.
I received an email in June before my Waikiki stay. Since it was the first time ever I asked about it and was told the hotels have been asked to recognize guests with status. My husband, who stayed on a GOH reservation right after my stay also got an email, but from a lower level manager. I just got another one from a GM for a stay this weekend at a different property. I guess they're trying to keep us happy :) It is a nice touch and allows us to make any special requests in advance of our stay instead of having to call the front desk. I asked for non-feather pillows. Let's see if it works :) |

Well normally I do contact the hotel with room requests and to compliment people for good service. I only had to contact a hotel once to advise a GM about a seriously bad mattress. I didn't ask for anything, nor did I expect anything, yet he gave me a free night anyway - which I never used.
FWIW - I also found out they keep the emails in our records. The people in Waikiki knew I had an issue with a bed in another hotel and were able to read the entire thing. |
I suspect that the personal emails from the GM are automated.

Wow. You mean were not special?
and yes I find them annoying. I book my nights usually one night at a time for long stays and I get the same BS mail every day. With that said, my prefs from one hotel carry over to many hotels which is nice. |
