SPG Triple Benefits - a decent deal

SPG seems to be doing a lot of marketing activity to drive traffic to their properties. Earlier, there was the complimentary SPG Gold status offer when staying in Asia-Pacific and paying with a World Mastercard (which is still on). Now there's the Triple Benefits offer, touted as a trio of tasty treats. And no registration required.

For three months (July through September 2013), dining at specified properties gives you 3 benefits. The benefits depend and vary by property, but could be from the following:

• 15% discount on lunch / dinner
• additional 100 Starpoints when dining with 3 or more guests
• kids under 6y eat free, and from ages 7-12y get a 50% discount
• additional 10% discount voucher for the next meal (not sure if it is an additional voucher or an additional 10% over and above 15% base discount) - to be used before 31 October 2013
• complimentary glass of house wine with any meal (breakfast also??? I wouldn't know !)
• additional 10% discount on food bills, when dining with 6 or more guests
• buy 3 entrees, get the 4th free
• 15% spa discount voucher when dining with 3 or more guests

Each participating hotel/restaurant has a different set of 3 benefits. Oh, and I forgot - the 3 benefits you get is in addition to applicable Starpoints that you earn anyway on the spends.

The list of participating locations is available here. However, this is not restricted to Asia-Pacific. I also get the feeling, based on a limited and quick scan of participating properties, that these are the relatively new ones that have been set up by / joined Starwood. Also, even at participating properties, not all restaurants qualify for this deal. Nonetheless, the benefits accrue!

Conclusion

To my mind, this is a reasonably good offer - I personally have a lot of reasons for dining out, since I need to entertain clients fairly frequently. If you're planning on dining out, do check these offers out.
