The Offer
- Choice Privileges is offering 5,000-8,000 bonus points when you complete two stays between September 4th and November 8th. The number of points you earn will depend on the base points earned from your two qualifying stays (e.g you’ll end up with a maximum of 8,000 bonus points total).
The Fine Print
- Registration required at www.choicehotels.com/freenight before check-out.
- The promotion is only available to members of the Choice Privileges® Rewards Program who make two separate qualifying stays with arrival between 09/04/2019 and 11/08/2019.
- A “stay” is any number of consecutive nights at one hotel regardless of check-ins or check-outs.
- A “qualifying stay” is a stay that is during this promotion at a participating hotel through a qualifying channel (see Qualifying Channel, below) that is eligible to earn Choice Privileges points.
- Most stays are eligible to earn Choice Privileges points EXCEPT: rooms booked at rates below $40 USD per night, certain hotel initiated promotions, reward night stays, complimentary rooms, rooms paid for as part of a convention or meeting, rooms booked through a travel agent or third party online retailer including online travel agencies, wholesale packages, group tours, and stays booked using the employee discount or the friends and family discount.
- Stays at vacation rental property locations and Choice Hotels® properties in the following countries are excluded from this promotion: Japan, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Guyana, and Ecuador. You must maintain an address in the U.S. (includes U.S. territories) or Canada to be eligible.
- Registered members will be awarded a minimum of 5,000 to a maximum of 8,000 bonus points after the second qualifying stay.
- The number of bonus points awarded depends on the number of base points earned from the two separate qualifying stays, with points varying by hotel.
- The total of base points plus bonus points awarded, however, will be at least 8,000 points, which is the number of points required for a future free night at over 1,000 Choice® hotels worldwide (see Free Nights, below).
Our Verdict
Exact same promotion that they just ran. Not very interesting but might as well register. Hilton & IHG both just launched new promotions as well.
Can this be done multiple times or it’s once only like the BW promo. Also I have to do my booking through my corporate app (not a third party booking etc.) which has regular rates only, but curious if they will honor it. It says it has to go through their website/app etc.
Any data point would be really helpful.
I think these promos are really good. Pay for 2 nights at a cheap hotel (I’ve found good rates near phx airport, usually have an overnight layover anyway) then use the points somewhere like NYC, lotta 8k hotels.
doesn’t look like the registration is live yet?
Yeah: the page loads but can’t activate it.
If you stay at a lot of Choice hotels, it’s well worth it to join your local Farm Bureau. Mine is about $30/year for membership but they have a discount program (you get a rate code) that is usually 20% off the standard rate. This alone saves me probably $1000/year.
Also, you can set your Choice Extras rewards to get 20 cents/gallon on Shell’s Fuel Rewards for each stay, so it’s an effective $4.00 discount on each stay.
