As a Gold I got a suite upgrade for 7 nights at Courtyard Seoul Times Square on mixed award/cash booking.
But I did have to email ahead. |
Strategy for upgrade on four night award

I'm staying four nights at the CY Taipei. I'm intending to book two separate back-to-back awards for two nights each to increase my chances of being upgraded. Whenever I have back-to-back reservations the check-in clerk never bothers to notice the second one until I mention it to them. In this case, I wouldn't mention it until after already having been assigned the first room. |
Can't find anything in the plat t/c about 3 night suite upgrades?
Thought it's subject to availability |

This is from the Marriott site, but it does not appear to be in the T&Cs: http://www.marriott.com/hotel-promot...ite-upgrade.mi

Hotels where I have gotten UGs on many occasions: Bangkok Soi 57, Marquis, Ren, JW (but only to CL Level), Shanghai JW, KL Ren. Only one stay but got an UG: KL Majestic, Bali Sheraton Kuta Beach, Pattaya FS Resort (no longer a Marriott). |
I got suite upgrades this week at the Renaissance Hong Kong (studio suite) and the Marriott Guangzhou Tianhe (1 bedroom). I have frequently gotten upgrades at the Ren, not so often at the GZ property.
|
My first stay as a gold member with HKIA skycity Marriott was upgraded to a suite after asking through apps
|
I was upgraded to a suite at the JW Singapore 2 weeks back, with a super early 8am check-in. Staff and service was incredible there.
|
From Oct 21-Nov2, as gold.
1 night JW Marriott Hong Kong - Nothing. 5 nights Marriott Shenzen Nanshan - Nothing. 2 nights JW Marriott Hong Kong - Nothing. Executive level mountain (booked base) 3 nights Marriott Shenzhen Nanshan - Executive Suite 1 night Courtyard Hong Kong - TBD. |
Majestic Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
1-night, upgraded into colonial suite in old wing Renaissance, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 7 nights, upgraded into Renaissance suite in west wing J.W. Marriott, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 5 Nights, executive suite on top floor |
Upgraded to suite every single time so far (~7 stays if memory serves) at Marquis in Bangkok, stays ranging from 2 to 11 nights.
The hotel is massive and I think they have a healthy complement of suites, which probably helps. |

In the Manila Marriott I got upgrades 3/7. In the Suhkumvit Marriott in Bangkok, we got an upgrade 3 days into our 9 day stay. In Beijing, I received a suite at the Renaissance for 5 days in 2012, but not at the JW last july for 5 days.
