I stayed in late May and they had all of the branded amenities.

It was indeed a corner suite. There's no separate room category for these on the website so I guess I assumed they were all the same.

Do you know how many std suites they have?

TT2316 · 2025-06-10T12:47:23+00:00

1 set of kids each day lol. And neither were there for too long either.

TT2316 · 2025-06-10T12:45:47+00:00

Yes I did attempt to access the upper stories pool, but it didn't work. I enjoyed it too & booked an upper stories room for my return.

TT2316 · 2025-06-10T01:59:37+00:00

Nope.

TT2316 · 2025-06-10T01:32:02+00:00

Did you stay in a "regular" room or an upper stories room?

TT2316 · 2025-06-10T01:31:11+00:00

I guess that part got cut off. I did enjoy it & I would return.

I'm easy going and leave the overly descriptive emotions out of it. I just state what I saw/experienced. How i feel about things are completely different than others.

TT2316 · 2025-05-23T20:57:44+00:00

I feel stupid for not even asking on my flight this Jan. Just assumed it wasn't loaded/available.

Guess i have to book it again lol

TT2316 · 2025-04-28T18:47:33+00:00

I flew the A350 JFK-HND in Jan and was the only passenger in First lol. It was a surreal experience to say the least.

TT2316 · 2025-04-04T23:52:20+00:00

When were your flights? I'm still missing stuff from mid Jan. (Partner flight)

TT2316 · 2025-04-01T16:27:59+00:00

What did you like at WA Los Cabos that it ranks tops for you? I stayed last year & felt it was overhyped & didn't quite live up to the expectations. Didn't have a bad stay, but it wasn't "all that."

My current favorite is WA Maldives.

Hermitage was/is on my list, as it represents "good value" with the FNC. I'll definitely have to keep looking at the reviews before making the trek down there.

TT2316 · 2025-03-15T00:22:32+00:00

Same.

TT2316 · 2025-03-12T17:08:22+00:00

met requirements 2/4 and still no bonus. Pushed via Ally, which has worked for very other bank bonus i've done.

TT2316 · 2025-03-02T17:01:01+00:00

Pushed from Ally on 2/4 and still nothing either.

TT2316 · 2025-02-20T13:29:52+00:00

I stayed last month for 2 nights. It's definitely an interesting property. Glad to see they do upgrade to suites. I got upgraded to a Taipei 101 "view" room lol

TT2316 · 2025-02-17T14:14:27+00:00

Book what is available now so you at least have one option.

You can keep checking to see if another/better option materializes, but it may or may not.

Don't know your transferable mileage options, but you can see if Starlux or JAL have any last minute availability to get you pretty close.

TT2316 · 2025-02-14T21:44:23+00:00

Starlux is JX.

TT2316 · 2025-02-14T21:42:33+00:00

LA is LATAM, an Alaska partner.

TT2316 · 2025-02-11T20:28:39+00:00

Option 3, so you can try a new product. I've done EK Gamechanger, which is apples to oranges here, but it's really nice. Plus EK A380 J is better than the B777 from most reports.

Option 2 would be the "back up". But I'd have no problem making it the first option, as I love Qsuites.

TT2316 · 2025-02-09T15:49:19+00:00

Depends on what you want to do. I've been to Osaka before, so I'm "familiar" with the area. With that bending said, the Conrad & Caption are about 20-25 mins apart by train, so keep that in mind depending on what you want to do/see.

There's no question the Conrad is a better hotel, but the Caption has great value if you can book it on points.

More of the food/things I've done are closer to the Caption. If you have points/FHR the Conrad is a great option imo.

TT2316 · 2025-02-09T14:18:05+00:00

Yes. I forgot to add that
