What are the best hotel promos for November 2024?

Welcome to 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 19,000 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. (I apologise to email readers if this block is mangled – scroll down to the main text area.)

Current offers for buying hotel points

Here are the ‘buy points’ offers running at the moment:

Where should you credit your stays for November 2024?

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.

Here are your options:

Hilton (Hampton, Conrad, Waldorf-Astoria etc)

Hilton has a promotion called ‘Power Up’.

You can register here.  Our full article is here. It runs until 31st December.

You will earn 2,500 bonus points on all stays, cash or reward, during the promotional period.

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

The Hilton booking page is here.

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

IHG One Rewards is running two promotions at the moment.

The main one offers 3,000 bonus points for every two cash nights you stay. These do not need to be consecutive.

You can register here. Our full article is here. It runs until 31st December.

The second offer is for triple base points at five niche IHG brands – voco, avid hotels, EVEN Hotels, Atwell Suites and Garner Hotels. voco is the only one you are likely to use unless you are travelling to the US.

You can register here. Our full article is here. It runs until 31st December.

These two offers will stack so you can earn twice.

The IHG booking page is here.

Marriott (St Regis, Sheraton, Westin, Four Points etc)

Marriott has a promotion called ‘Earn Two Ways’ for the autumn.

You can register here.  Our full article is here. It runs until 26th November although registration closes early on 12th November.

You will earn 2,000 bonus points on cash stays of 2+ nights.

Holders of the UK Marriott Bonvoy American Express credit card will receive an additional 2,000 bonus points on each 2+ night cash stay, for a total bonus of 4,000 points. Oddly, this element requires separate registration which can only be done via the ‘Promotions’ tab of the Marriott website when you are logged in.

You need to register in advance of your first stay during the period via the Marriott website here.  Existing bookings count.

The Marriott booking page is here.

Hyatt (Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt, Andaz, Mr & Mrs Smith etc)

Hyatt is offering double points, starting from your second stay, in EMEA and APAC hotels until 20th December.

Registration is now closed, unfortunately. You can see full details for reference in this article.

There is a separate promotion offering double points at Mr & Mrs Smith properties booked via the Hyatt website.

You need to register here by 30th November 2024 and complete your qualifying stays by 24th December 2024. Full details are in an article here.

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.
