Novotel on Collins or Sofitel on Collins. Thanks in advance

None of those 2 sorry. Couple of the Mantras and Mercures are, and the Art series.

Actually, it is Melbourne marathon day . Which is why I was looking to stay the night before and run it the next day... oh well...

Made any travel mistakes lately?

It’s interesting now with digital licensing, outside your own country these are often not accepted and one has to carry the physical one. Guess this will change in time. When I tried to hire a car in Adelaide last year, they wouldn’t accept my digital license

My (very) expensive stay was marred by a range of systemic issues which I highlighted in this thread. It fell short in just about everything. If you click here you will see. Apologies — there is probably an easier way to link

Wait, I actually got my dates wrong (now, i have 1 less week to train )

Could someone check the availability for 12th October? Melbourne city hotels - Sofitel or Novotel preferably.

Would any kind person be able to tell me Tokyo availability for 27 & 28 Mar next year?
Either Mercure Ginza or Pullman Tamachi.
TIA. Cam

I know it's been a while since you asked, but just confirming no availability in Tokyo.

There was only Swissotel Nankai Osaka for about $395 for two nights ($363 for first night 27/3; $31 for second night 28/3) non-refundable, or $435 flexible rate.

Hi, could someone please confirm if there's Stay Plus availability at the Wonil Hotel Perth on May 1-2, 2025 or April 30-May 1, 2025? Many thanks.

From $20 both May 1 - May 2 or Apr 31 - May 1

Many thanks! So you need to pay $20 for a Stay Plus redemption? And is that per person?

Per Room. I am seeing these additional pays more and more. Initially such extra costs covered something substantial such as an upgrade to a suite or executive room, now it seems to be drip feeding.

Without the Stay Plus it is from $233 (Accor Plus Flex rate)

So a poor redemption, as one would typically want to get more than cost of the Accor+ membership back.

I've always been able to get $400+ in value.

That's a good point but a bit tough with the lack of luxe properties in-and-around Perth.

Ok, so I bit the bullet and purchased Accor Plus membership and will redeem it for the Wonil Hotel property. Just to confirm something, as of January 1, 2025 my 20 status nights that are included with Accor Plus will get reset to 0 correct? But I still have the Accor Plus membership benefits until my 12 month membership period expires? And am I still Silver status?
