This is the best “points” joke ever!

It does - I stayed at the ritz a few weeks ago in Dana Point, and am only gold and got an upgraded room. Just one level, but went from Garden view to coastal view. Not necessarily likely depending on when you're there though.

It all depends. If you book the cheapest room type available, don’t expect the presidential suite unless it’s off season on a Monday night.

I’m platinum and spent $150k getting married at the Ritz in Naples, FL and that location still won’t give me an upgrade

uplifting

EY OP - stay at the ritz in Cancun. You should get upgraded and the service at that hotel is top notch

like

They do and depends on time and location for upgrades

Wait...you spent 150k on the wedding or simply booked out a block of rooms at the Ritz...

Well I didn’t specifically pay for a dime, but wife’s family paid for a pretty baller wedding and a bunch of their relative’s rooms. But my Marriott number was attached to all of those purchases

Staying in Cancun. Deciding between JW and Ritz. Would I be more likely to get upgraded at the JW?

I got upgraded to Club level last time at Ritz Dallas. I am Marriott Gold.

You can get upgraded but they will not give you lounge access

I got a suite upgrade in Denver. It was awesome
