Double-Dipping between 2 Marriot Accounts
 

Hi, here's the situation if anyone can offer some help/insights it would be really great!

My girlfriend and I are going tp spend New Years Eve at the Marriott in Sugarland, TX. She is Marriott Platinum and we are hoping to make the reservation under her in hopes of a room upgrade. I, on the other hand, was Silver until they extended the "Taste of Gold" promotion to me. I've stayed 9 of the 10 nights needed to keep Gold Status through Feb 2011 and could use this final night (prmotion ends 01/01/2010) to meet the threshold.

Would it be possible for my girlfriend to make the reservation, then at check-in have my Marriott number put on the account so that the day counts towards my "Taste of Gold"?

If not, is there any other way to make this happen?:confused:

I often make room reservations for people traveling with me. When they check in they change to their number.
Most of the time the get whatever room they reserved with upgrade and sometimes even lounge access.

You can also make it in your name and number then call the hotel and tell them a Platinum is with you. They will often give you the perks.

Thanks
 

Thanks FlyingHome! We're going to try it out (Her reserving, then switching to my Rewards # at check-In).
I'll be sure to let write abck and let you all know if it works out!

You can also put the hotel reservation in both names noting, in the comment section on the reservation, that XXX is a platinum.
