Keep up to date with new hotel offers by signing up for our free daily or weekly newsletters.

After a one month hiatus waiting for new offers to start, we have brought back our regular round-up of the best hotel promotions currently running.

All of the information in this article can also be found on our ‘Hotel Offers’ page which contains details of all of the current offers, together with links to our major articles on each hotel scheme.  However, a positive response from readers – especially our 16,000 email subscribers – means we run this monthly article as a handy summary.

Here are quick summaries and links to the registration pages you need for each offer – do it before you forget.

For TODAY ONLY (1st November) you can also still book an Accor stay (2+ nights) to earn bonus points. Full details are in this article and you can register here.

The current ‘buy points’ offers running at the moment are:

Current American Express cashback offers

In all cases, you are restricted to a list of participating hotels.

Where should you credit your stays for November 2022?

Remember that, irrespective of the offers below, there is never a single ‘best’ offer.

Some offers require multiple stays to maximise the bonus, which you might not do. Some require stays to be a minimum number of nights before a bonus is earned.

You need to factor in any elite status you have, which will earn you additional status bonuses.

More importantly, you need to be able to use the points. There is no value in earning a large bonus in a scheme where you will never go on to earn enough points to get a free night.

Hilton (Hampton, Conrad, Waldorf-Astoria etc)

Hilton is running TWO offers at the same stay. You can register for both, and both will credit to your account.

The points offer is called ‘Double Your Stay’.  You can register here.  Our full article is here. It runs until 31st December.

You will earn double base points on all stays and a further 2,000 bonus points on top if you check out on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.

You need to register in advance of your stay via the Hilton website here.  Existing bookings count and all Hilton Honors hotels are taking part.

The second offer is for double elite night credits – handy if you are looking to retain or gain Hilton Honors status. You can register here. Our full article is here. It runs to 31st December.

The Hilton booking page is here.

IHG (InterContinental, Holiday Inn, Crowne Plaza, Hotel Indigo etc)

Between 13th October and 31st December, you can earn bonus base points on your IHG One Rewards stays.

You must register in advance via this link.

Interestingly, you can choose your reward from either:

• 2,000 bonus points for every two nights or

• 10,000 bonus points for every four nights 

In terms of counting ‘nights’, reward nights do not count. This is different from the way that IHG usually counts ‘nights’ in terms of earning elite status or milestone rewards.

Existing bookings DO count so there is no need to rebook anything.

Our full article is here. The home page for bookings is here.

Marriott Bonvoy (Renaissance, The Ritz-Carlton, Sheraton, Westin, W, Aloft, St Regis, Luxury Collection, Moxy etc)

Between 21st September and 15th December, you will earn 2,000 bonus points per STAY on every cash stay at a Marriott hotel.

I value a Bonvoy point at 0.5p so this is equivalent to a £5.00 bonus per night.  It is clearly a better deal on cheap one-night stays than expensive week-long holidays.

You only receive the bonus from your second cash stay after registration. You receive no bonus on your first stay. Holders of the Marriott Bonvoy American Express card will receive additional bonuses.

Registration closes early, on 1st December.

Hyatt (inc Alila, Andaz, Thomson, Unbound Collection, Miraval)

Until 20th December, you can earn bonus base points on your World of Hyatt stays with the new ‘Bonus Journeys’ promotion.

You must register in advance via this link. Registration closes on 15th November.

You will earn double base points on all stays of 2+ nights.

There is an additional bonus of double elite night credits if you stay at one of 65 all inclusive resorts recently bought by Hyatt, but these are primarily not in places where you are likely to be visiting.

As well as Hyatt-branded hotels, it is also valid at participating M life Rewards destinations, Small Luxury Hotels of the World hotels and Lindblad Expeditions.

And finally …..

If you booking a luxury hotel, remember that we can offer you exclusive additional benefits at Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental, Peninsula and similar hotels.  

Click here for details of our luxury hotel booking service in association with Bon Vivant / Virtuoso.  Feedback from readers who have used this service so far has been excellent and we have booked over £1.7 million of rooms so far.
