So which Fairmont hotels have you stayed at with your free nights?

I've stayed at:
Fairmont Kea Lani Maui Oceanview Suite (Normally $750+/night) + 2 free hot rock massages.
Fairmont Washington D.C. Ambassador Suite (Normally $999+/night) + Free bottle of Lagavulin 16YO Single Malt.

I'm booked at:
Fairmont Copley Plaza Boston Park Suite (Normally $650+/night)
Fairmont Pittsburgh Mt. Washington Suite (Nomrally $1,700+/night)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Can someone please explain how you guys are getting the free scotch, etc..?

Dan, how would you rate the Fairmont in DC? Have you stayed at any DC Starwood properties for comparison?

I'm part of the Platinum for life and I know nothing about such a benefit.
Not listed anywhere that I saw. 

Anyone care to shed some light? Dan?

Maybe it's the welcome amenity, or maybe they just like Dan...

I got a fruit plate as a welcome amenity. Bottle of nice scotch would def. have been nice...

I'm sure Dan's personality (and perhaps influence?) helped :)

I don't have platinum for life but I would assume it's restaurant credits being used at the bar

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Was that in a suite or regular room? Maybe that also makes a difference...

-Free scotch from the food and bev certs they give in your annual Plat package.
-I have not stayed in any other DC hotel.  Some notes on the hotel here: http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/19759

Bars sell sealed bottles of Alcohol? 
Of course.
