Saturday was my sister's 50th birthday so her husband had arranged for the four of us to stay at the Burswood Intercontinental Hotel for 2 nights as a surprise. As another surprise we'd also arranged for the boys (she has 3) and some friends to join us at The Atrium restaurant. You should have seen how shocked she was when, after telling her we were just going up to the city for afternoon tea, we pulled into valet parking and got out the car and produced a couple of bags that I had been sneakily packing. :)

But you should have seen all our face when we got to check in. We'd been given a random free upgrade to one of the Riverside suites!!!!!! This gave us the valet parking for free, access to the private club members lounge on the 9th floor with complimentary champagne, canapes, coffees, danishes, breakfast and snacks, as much as we wanted. :thumbsup: But goodness me you should have seen the suite. It was on the 5th floor with a massive balcony overlooking the river and the city. There were two king size beds and tv in the bedroom, there was a lounge, a dining area and a bar, and the bathroom had his and hers washbasins and a double spa bath and another tv. How the other half live.
