Don't blame SPG, blame the German hotels. They have a habit of opting out.

True, if you're a Diamond. But their Gold benefits are probably the best in the industry.

Same here
The McDonald's near me just announced they will not sell Big Mac's and French Fries anymore, but they will keep the name 'McDonalds'.

Works for some people, doesn't work for others. Just like every promo.
Works for me. 31 nights thru promo, all are stays that qualify for 3x, so with Plat and AMEX, a nice 9x multiplier. |

As far as the complaining on the non-participating properties. I was nailed with this last year at the same time when nearly all of SPG's New York City properties decided to not participate. That being said, this year's exclusion list didn't seem much longer than last year's. I'd be interested to know if anyone did a comparison.
I was actually planning on comparing the non participating lists on Monday to see where it falls. |

Just confirming a lot of other posts I guess: bulk of my stays are in Germany, so in practice no promo at all in Q4.
Not too big a deal (there's really worse things in life/happening in the world). Only couple of stays away from Plat for next year so will make sure to qualify (promo or not). As I'm operating on a purely leisure basis, stays/nights really driven by promotional opportunities, so not going out of my way to rack up extra nights for this one (will consider Warsaw or Paris trip though, and get at least a bit out of the promo). Oh well, such is life, hope for better luck next time. Can't really complain as managed to enjoy two great free resort nights from prior promo, still figuring out where to fit in two remaining ones before year-end. |
throw me a frickin bone

Making my own promo!
3 nights coming up in Orlando and all properties are excluded.
So this is what I booked: Sheraton MCO Downtown -- BRG approved at $59 WDW Swan -- BRG approved at $155 WDW Dolphin -- BRG approved at $138 6000 bonus points. Take that SPG! ;) (Could have also had the Sheraton Vistana at $79 and the Sheraton Safari at $66.) |
