Just randomly was checking my card benefits on the Sapphire Reserve and saw that on July 1 they added a benefit to upgrade your Bonvoy account to Gold for 3 months and if you spend 3 qualified nights it'll extend through Feb 2024.
Thanks for the heads up! Would've missed it otherwise! Very random benefit but it doesn't hurt at all! The problem is I already have the Gold Elite Status... so this doesn't do me any goodVernada said:

gold gets late checkout and upgrades too.kyledr04 said:
Gold is only good for free wifi and extra points. Even platinum isn't what it used to be but it's a big jump from gold.

We use late checkout almost every hotel stay.
A gold upgrade is going to be a higher floor, a room with view, etc. They aren't gonna throw you in the presidential suite every time.
i think it's just free. Not upgraded per se. I don't know I never use Wi-Fi at a hotel, never is as fast as good ol' cellular!Diggity said:62strat said:gold gets late checkout and upgrades too.kyledr04 said:

Don't forget the "upgraded" wifi!
