Suite dreams are made of this: complimentary upgrades. Many luxury hotels have unsold suites they’re willing to upgrade savvy travelers into, but it’s all about timing and charm. Arrive at check-in looking polished and ask if any upgrades are available. Loyalists to hotel chains often score these perks through membership programs, so enroll before you book. A friendly smile and genuine conversation with the front desk staff can work wonders in landing that panoramic ocean-view suite for the cost of a standard room.
