We stay at whatever hotel we want (except 4 season and regis) but depends on availability

like

Hyatt, Marriott 4 star

Le Meridien or JW or Hyatt, typically
Ritz, exceptionally if Partner allows

Ritz mainly for Kearney but isn’t always available

How long you book in advance ?

The usual suspects for us - Ritz, Hyatt, JW, Meridien, etc but not the Four Seasons. We don't have a corporate rate there.

Amazing! Thank you all for your responses.

I thought 4 seasons was also included
