At Swank Guide, we have a strict “slept there, loved that” policy for official recommendations. But life’s too short for rigid rules. If you’ve got your eye on a hotel that isn’t on our list, don’t book it solo and miss out on the perks you can’t get on your own. We can probably still help. Room upgrades, food & beverage credits, maybe even a complimentary massage—we can VIP you at nearly 6,000 hotels worldwide, even if they don’t have the official Swank seal (yet).

Just ask.
