The Starwood business card will now provide free access to Sheraton Club lounges.
how many guests would i be able to take in with me to the lounge?
it's generally just an issue to swipe your room card to obtain access.
dont you need gold business status?
in the past, the Plat status got you the plat room/Club Floor upgrade. This automatically gives your room keys the access to the Club Floor in the elevator and the same room cards allow you to swipe to gain access into the club lounge. If you ask for 3 room keys when you arrive, then that would work the same. We enjoyed the plat status access to the quieter and emptier club lounges while it lasted. Great food and free drink selection, a private "living room" that was empty during the super bowl, and a good place to use computers and printers for business for free when needed.
can i access the lounge without checking into hotel?
So 210 stays/nights in 10 years. If you do 21 weekend 1 night stays a year for the next 10 years at a Cat 1 (2k SPG per night), that's 420k SPG for Lifetime Platinum.
If you churn multiple business cards yearly its more less
FTFY
I have an upcoming paid stay at a SPG hotel, and i add a plat member to my reservation, and i am the one checking in, do i get plat benefits/upgrades at check in?
