Four Seasons Preferred Partner

Four Seasons' own amenities, booked by Geisel Power at the fourseasons.com rate.

Four Seasons Preferred Partner is Four Seasons' own program for travel advisors, at its owned and operated hotels. Booked through a Preferred Partner advisor, a stay comes with a complimentary daily full breakfast for two people per bedroom and a hotel or resort credit that, in Four Seasons' words, clients can use “towards any experience they wish”, plus an upgrade and early check-in or late check-out when available. The rate is the same as on fourseasons.com; booking direct gets that rate without the amenities or the VIP status. A stay carries one set of amenities, Preferred Partner or Virtuoso, not both, and Preferred Partner also covers Four Seasons hotels that aren't in Virtuoso.
