Marriott Rewards and Starwood Preferred Guest (now under the same ownership, of course) have unveiled their promotions for Quarter 2.
Starwood and Marriott offers have become closer in recent quarters and now we have reached peak merger – the two offers are identical.
The Marriott Rewards promotion
Marriott’s promotion is another variant of MegaBonus.
It offers 750 bonus points per night (which are equal to 250 Starwood Preferred Guest points) for stays between 16th April and 20th July.
There are two catches:
You don’t receive any bonus for your first two nights during the offer period
You must register by 30th June even though the offer runs until 20th July
The maximum bonus you can earn is 36,000 points. As usual, bookings via a third party online travel agent such as Expedia will not count.
You MUST register in advance via this page of the Marriott Rewards website.
The Starwood Preferred Guest promotion
SPG’s offer is called ‘More Nights More Starpoints’.
It offers 250 bonus points per night (which are equal to 750 Marriott Rewards points) for stays between 16th April and 20th July.
There are three catches:
You don’t receive any bonus for your first two nights during the offer period
You must register by 30th June even though the offer runs until 20th July
Some hotels are not participating – see the website for details
The maximum bonus you can earn is 12,000 SPG points.
You MUST register in advance via this page of the Starwood website.
Conclusion
These offers are not hugely generous (I value the bonus at under £4 per night) but it does benefit those who are doing long stays, with no pressure to hotel hop every night.
It is worth registering now (Starwood here, Marriott here) in case you forget when a future stay comes along, especially as the promos carry on for three weeks after registration closes.
