Choice Hotels, one of the newer transfer partners for the Citi ThankYou program, has launched a new promotion in which it’s offering members of its free-to-join Privileges loyalty program, double points on stays taken through 31 December 2021.
The promotion
- Double base points on all qualifying stays
- Registration required
- Book between 22 November and 31 December 2021
- Stay between 29 November and 31 December 2021
Key terms
- *Registration required HERE before check-out.
- The promotion is only available to members of the Choice Privileges Rewards Program who register for this promotion, and then make a qualifying stay at participating hotels (WoodSpring Suites™ hotels and Ascend Hotel Collection™ all-inclusive resorts, among others, are not participating) with arrival between November 29, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
- 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 Choice Hotels properties in the following countries are excluded from this promotion: Japan, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia.
- You must maintain an address in the U.S. (includes U.S. territories), Canada, Europe, Mexico, participating countries in Central America and the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand, or Singapore to be eligible.
- Registered members will be awarded double (2x) bonus points for each qualifying stay. “Double Bonus Points” means two times the base points earned from a qualifying stay.
- There is no limit on the number of qualifying stays in which members are eligible to earn bonus points during the promotion period.
- Offer is not applicable to groups and cannot be combined with any other discounts, special offers or promotions.
Full terms and conditions can be found on the promotion page
Bottom Line
For the final month of the year, Choice Hotels is offering double base points on eligible stays. This deal should stack with any other Choice Hotel promotions in your region (e.g. the 25% discount currently being offered in Europe) so make sure you keep an eye out for any other promotions that the hotelier may announce in the next few days. With the Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend ahead of us, I’d be surprised if we didn’t see more discounts on the way.
