The bed at the Sofitel in Budapest, Hungary is still the most comfortable bed I have ever stayed in.

If you carry a Visa Signature card (sorry – US only), then you can sign up and get free Hilton Gold Status through August 31, 2011. Stay three times during that period and have your Gold Status extended to March 2013.

For those of you like me who are already Diamond (or Gold members), you also can benefit by signing up and receiving 5000 free Hilton Honors.

Thanks to One Mile at a Time for the tip

One of my best Marriott experiences was as a Gold member staying at the JW Marriott in Bangkok. The lounge was incredible with a full breakfast in the mornings and fantastic appetizers at night.

Thanks to View from the Wing and TM Travelworld.

Here is a link to get free Gold Status with Accor Hotels. For those of you unfamiliar with the chain, it includes hotel chains like Sofitel, Pullman, Novotel, Ibis to name a few.

The reason I post is that in Budapest, Hungary there is a Sofitel there that is a fantastic hotel. It is the softest bed I have ever slept on. You also get free casino entrance with your stay.

I was at that casino with a colleague where we made some Ukrainians very unhappy with us when my friend kept splitting face cards in blackjack.

In any case, it’s worth signing up for since it’s free!
