TBO Holidays’ Platinum Collection: The VIP Hotel Benefits You’re Missing
If you’re staying at a quality hotel—whether it’s part of an international trip, a multi-city vacation, or a pre-cruise stay—wouldn’t you want VIP treatment and extra perks automatically included?
That’s what TBO Holidays’ Platinum Collection gets you. When we book you into a Platinum Collection property, you receive benefits that other guests at the same hotel don’t get. Complimentary room upgrades, welcome amenities, spa credits, flexible check-in and checkout, priority service. You don’t pay extra for any of it. It’s just part of how the reservation gets booked.
TBO works exclusively with travel advisors, which means these benefits aren’t available when you book direct or through an online site. The program pairs our expertise with access you can’t get on your own.
This matters most if you’re planning a trip where the hotel experience is part of the vacation, not just a place to sleep. If you’re the kind of traveler who cares about where you stay, here’s what you need to know about the Platinum Collection.
What the Platinum Collection Actually Does
The Platinum Collection is a list of hotels where TBO has negotiated VIP benefits for guests booked through travel advisors. The perks vary by property.
At The Mandrake Hotel in London, you get a complimentary room upgrade, signature welcome cocktail, early check-in, and late checkout. At Live Aqua Cancun, it’s a signature welcome cocktail, priority check-in, and spa credits. At Fontainebleau Las Vegas, you get exclusive priority check-in and checkout, plus restaurant and bar credits.
These aren’t things you can request when you book direct. The hotel knows you’re a Platinum Collection guest when you arrive, and the benefits are already applied.
Booking Through Us vs. Booking Direct
When you book a hotel directly, through discount travel sites, or with warehouse clubs, you get a room at a rate. If something goes wrong, you’re dealing with the hotel’s customer service line on your own.
When we book through TBO, you get access to the Platinum Collection benefits where they apply. We can often secure better room categories than what shows as available online. If your trip involves multiple destinations, we coordinate all the hotels so the experience is consistent from one city to the next. If plans change or problems come up, we handle it. You’re not on hold with anyone.
For international travel, multi-city itineraries, and pre or post-cruise stays, this matters. TBO works with properties worldwide, so we can book hotels in Rome, Florence, and Venice as one coordinated itinerary instead of three separate reservations with three different cancellation policies. You’re not juggling confirmations or wondering if the hotel in Florence will be as good as the one in Rome.
We use TBO because it gives you options and treatment that aren’t available elsewhere. The Platinum Collection VIP benefits are part of it. So is our ability to coordinate complex itineraries, secure hotels that match your expectations, and handle issues on your behalf.
