LeVeque (Marriott) if you can afford it. Otherwise Westin if you're single. Hooked up with several consultants there.

Westin. As a bonus, it is allegedly haunted!

The Joseph (SPG).

Westin. Wait it's haunted? What's the backstory?

D2 - The more interesting part was the hookup, not haunted

Yeah, the 7th floor of the Westin is no longer in use. It used to be the ballroom floor when the hotel was The Great Southern Hotel. Guests staying on the 6th floor often hear classic band music coming from the 7th floor and supposedly some have see a ghostly woman of the period in ballroom garb. Not that I believe any of it but it adds another point of interest besides M1's hookups.

I lived at the Sheraton for about 8 months. It's a bit dark but the rooms are massive and the staff was friendly, especially if you're platinum. The Westin was decent but the standard rooms are much smaller.

Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me what you make as a typical banquet/events manager for salary or per hour? I’ve worked for Marriott/Bonvoy at the Ritz and for the Curio Collection with Hilton as a bartender/server/banquets captain. Now I’m working for a privately owned hotel and as a manager role in Banquets/Events. Because of pandemic times, what is everyone else making?

After a hard reset on travel points (got none after Covid and change to industry) how would you start over? Which credit card is best for travel points? Airline? Starwood or Bonvoy? Avis or ??

At one time I had status on most airlines and hotels but I never bothered to focus on accumulating points since it seemed like they were infinite and I booked on convenience. Oh have times changed! I even let go of Amex platinum, just wasn’t worth it to me. Base airport LAX/SNA so no airline pref.

GTM moving back into consulting is a good idea in theory, but it’s like a train wreck happening in slow motion.

Sure feels like they are pushing to stand up a traditional CRE network for product sales inside of consulting … that won’t work in a service business. Some of us have seen this movie before - different theatre.

Watch how this plays out over next 6 months.
