Which hotel membership is better?

Since I have been playing the hotel frequent flyer program for three years, I basically don't look at the group and brand when choosing a hotel when traveling or on business. After a long time, you will know that under the same brand, the level of software and hardware will not be much different. Judging from the membership plan, it is similar. Give a brief introduction.

Starwood (now acquired by Marriott): I stayed in Starwood for 100 nights. The advantage of Starwood is "fairness", which is probably the most equal hotel in my hotel. 90% hotels are very polite to Platinum members, and they can basically meet the unified standards in upgrading suites and services. This is easy to say, but it is quite difficult to do.

The integral scheme is perfect, absolutely the first in the industry, and the mobile APP is also the best to use. Integral is valuable, of course, this is relative. The diversity of points is the first in the industry. It is feasible to change mileage, air tickets, hotels and even tickets for the Champions League auction. The biggest advantage is that after being acquired by Marriott, it has formed the first group in the universe with Marriott. This advantage is even greater. For Platinum members, nearly 90% hotels have upgraded their suites without any requirements.

Hilton: After SPG, let's talk about Hilton. I don't always live in Hilton. After reading the records, I only stayed in six houses for 36 nights, but I still gave them 0 bad reviews. Administrative treatment and breakfast can be guaranteed by gold card or above. Of course, his greatest advantage lies in his quick return. This person who may know a little bit can understand what I mean, that is, the return rate of points in one night is faster than others, and the return rate is slightly higher. Of course, the premise is that you are a senior member of Hilton. Even if you know Hilton employees and let them get the price of relatives and friends, you can stay in Hilton hotels all over the world at an ultra-low price of less than 50%.

Intercontinental Hotel (IHG): IHG is the largest hotel I have ever stayed in, with nearly 300 rooms. My base is in Sichuan, which is the fastest growing province in IHG Greater China except Shanghai. The advantage of Intercontinental is that it is the international chain with the lowest average cost, covering all its three-star to five-star brand hotels, and it is also the most frequent and diverse group that designs promo promotion activities. From the earliest 2-for-2 1 to the present pioneering activities (in fact, it is no different from 2-for-2 1), Intercontinental has always captured the hearts of almost all entry-level guests, because of simple violence, low cost and great return!

Similarly, if you are a Royal Ambassador and a member of the highest level in the continent, the employees take very high care of you. Every intercontinental hotel will let a member advance at the morning meeting, all your habits and preferences will be recorded in detail, and the sick guest relationship manager will also be arranged to follow up the member's check-in needs. Even the general manager of the hotel will come out to see you several times, and the degree of attention can be imagined.

Hyatt: I have never lived, and I have no right to speak.

Therefore, in the case of similar budget, choosing a group with a large distribution in your base to join their frequent flyer program can get very good treatment and points return. If you travel frequently and the reimbursement amount of the company is relatively high, you can use the money reimbursed by the company to accumulate points, which allows you to exchange hotels and air tickets for free when you are on a business trip. This is actually a very good invisible welfare.
