Virtuoso amenities

Virtuoso 2026 reference amenities. Which amenities apply, the rate and the cancellation terms all follow the live rate for the dates you choose.

How these benefits work

At Grand Hotel Central, the room upgrade is requested at the time of booking rather than at check-in, and it still depends on what is available for your dates, with the Grand Suite excluded from eligibility. Breakfast is a daily buffet for up to two guests per bedroom, served in the restaurant. The property includes a 100 USD equivalent food and beverage credit, settled on the room account, not combinable with other offers, not valid against the room rate, and with no cash value if not used in full. Stays of five nights or more add a further 100 USD credit for a total of 200, and stays of seven nights or more add another 200 for a total of 300. These are the Virtuoso reference amenities for 2026; which ones apply, along with the rate and cancellation terms, follows the live rate for the dates you choose.

Book through FlyBest: the rate comes from the hotel's own inventory — we add no mark-up and charge no service fee. The Virtuoso amenities travel with the rate you pick, and some rates (certain promotions, non-refundable prepaid rates) carry none, so the live rate page is what counts.

Is the rate at Grand Hotel Central higher when you book through FlyBest?
No. The live rate comes from the hotel's own inventory; we add no mark-up and charge no service fee. A rate carrying the Virtuoso amenities is normally the same price as the public rate for the same room, though different rate codes can differ in price, breakfast and cancellation terms, so the live rate page is what to go by before you book.
Is the room upgrade at Grand Hotel Central guaranteed?
No. The directory line reads “Upgrade at time of booking, subject to availability (excludes the Grand Suite)”: the hotel arranges it from whatever is unsold that day, so it cannot be locked in beforehand and a particular room type cannot be promised. If the upgrade matters for this trip, say so when you book and we will put the request to the hotel.
Can the credit at Grand Hotel Central be used against the room rate?
The directory line reads “$100 USD equivalent Food & Beverage credit to be utilized during stay (not combinable, not valid on room rate, no cash value if not redeemed in full)”. The credit is for on-property spending during the stay, settled on the room account at check-out, and cannot be applied to the room rate. It cannot be combined with other offers. Anything left unused has no cash value.
How is breakfast handled at Grand Hotel Central?
The directory line reads “Daily Buffet breakfast for up to two guests per bedroom, served in the restaurant and via in-room dining”. Guests or dishes beyond what the line covers are charged by the hotel at its own prices.
