I won't miss it though...
The Sheraton is average, but I have grown fonder of it since I became Plat. However, it probably wouldn't pass the 'would I stay there if it wasn't an SPG property' test. The St Regis is fantastic, and if the rates are competitive enough is definitely worth a splurge.
This will still bizarrely leave a major business hub like Singapore with just two properties (although isn't there a Westin opening at one of the IR's ?), yet Bangkok will have something like twelve in the next couple of years.
