Thoughts

This promotion has been running for a while but I only just noticed it (sorry!) courtesy of a tweet from TPG.

Some of these properties are at the very high end of the Marriott spectrum (Domes of Elounda, Schloss Fuschl, Hotel Romazzino etc…) and so won’t be cheap to book and that’s why the room upgrade could be quite useful….especially if you’re traveling as a young family.

It’s possible that the entry-level rooms at some of these properties won’t be big enough for some travelers’ needs while the next room up on the scale would work ok…and that’s not a problem when you can book and entry-level room and get the next level up for free.

Overall this isn’t necessarily a promotion that’s going to make a lot of people reconsider their plans (or make new ones) but, if you’re planning on a visit to Europe at a time which coincides with the promotion period, this could be a nice way to upgrade your trip.
