As a Pullman resident, you become part of an exclusive group granted VVIP status with the Accor Ownership Benefits Program membership. This grants you access to luxurious benefits, including Accor Live Limitless loyalty program Platinum status, best available rate discounts of up to 20%, room upgrades (subject to availability), selected local benefits, and a VIP reservation desk.
