Booking tips

  • Shangri-La Circle (which replaced Golden Circle in 2022) members can earn and use points at participating hotels, usually on eligible rates booked directly.
  • Many hotels around the world use the word ‘Traders’ in their name without being part of Shangri-La, so check that the hotel belongs to the Shangri-La group before you book.
