Thought I'd throw this one out there and see what people think.
I've just got back from a quick weekend trip away at the IC Double Bay in Sydney. Really lovely hotel, and my partner and I are keen on going back later this year for a spring getaway.
I've been looking at the Dining Rewards program and Ambassador membership, and both offer a deal that would benefit us greatly if we stayed for a couple of nights over a weekend. I'm currently a boring old IHG Club member, but after a US trip in June I'll hopefully have the Elite Qualifying Points needed to make Gold Elite (still a little confused about which points count towards status and which don't, but I'll find out inevitably!). If I end up with Gold in the latter half of the year the Dining Rewards program will bump me up to Platinum, but then again I'll get guaranteed upgrades with Ambassador so that could work out better for the trip.
Which do you guys recommend? Are there any benefits of one over the other for a IC getaway?
