Leading Hotels of the World (LHW) has brought back a popular promotion, offering complimentary one-year membership of its ‘Leaders Club’ loyalty programme. Joining usually costs ~£125 ($175 USD).

What are the benefits like?

Not bad – and certainly worth signing up for when its free!

You can find the full details here, but the highlights are:

• Free breakfast
• Complimentary upgrades
• Early Check-in / late check-out

Perhaps the biggest benefit though, is that you might be able to use your Leaders Club status to match across to other programmes.

What are LHW hotels like?

LHW describes itself as the “world’s largest collection of independent luxury hotels”. In the UK, that includes some nice London options like Brown’s, The Milestone, and The Landmark.

Bottom line

Free perks are always a good thing, but do make sure you still shop around when booking hotels to ensure you really are getting a good deal.
