Starwood Hotels Dole Out Free Internet To Their Best Customers
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels
Paying for the internet, especially at luxury hotels is one of our biggest pet peeves. One major hotel chain is making it easier for guests to get free in-room internet access. There's just one major hook, you have to be a loyal customer. Starting on March 1, Starwood will give platinum-level members of the Starwood Preferred Guest program free internet at any of Starwood's 940 hotels including Westin, Sheraton, W and St. Regis). To get the free internet you also can't book using Expedia, Travelocity, Orbitz or other, similar sites.USA Today's Hotel Check-In reports that when you get to your room and log in you may have to click yes and accept the charge but that it will be removed as long as you're a platinum-level member. Hilton already offers its gold and diamond members free, in-room Internet access as one of their hotel perks.Hyatt also offers free Internet to its diamond- and platinum-level members. It's a great step but we're still dreaming of the day when free luxury hotel internet is available without restrictions.
