Cookies allow us to provide a customized experience without the visitor having to remind us of his or her preferences each time she or he visits our site.

GLK PREMIER Regency Suites & Spa cookies also do not follow visitors when traveling on the Internet after leaving the GLK PREMIER Regency Suites & Spa web site.

We also use cookies to collect and maintain aggregate web site data (such as the number of visitors to a particular site), which helps us see which areas are popular with our users and which are not. Among other things, this helps us improve and update the site, based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed.
