Where can I find a list of hotels in the US tha accept UA MP miles? I would like to use my miles for a hotel night stay.

Thanks.

I don't believe UA M+ has such a feature.

I believe American AAdvantage does.

chix is correct. Mileage Plus miles can not be used directly for hotel stays.

However, they do have a partnership with Hilton in which you can exchange Mileage Plus miles for hotel points in the Hilton HHonors programs.

Contact HHonors or visit www.hhonors.com (http://www.hhonors.com) for more details.

If you have Diners Club another option is to convert United miles to Diners Club points and then use the Diners points (use either tailored travel or hotel certificates).

Converting to Hilton points as PremEx mentions is the better option. But if there is no Hilton where you are going, you could try the Diners route, where the partners are Hyatt, Marriott, Inter Continental, Ritz, Wyndham, Ramada and Radisson.

OR ....... next time you use points to upgrade, or for totally free tickets as I recall, they post you Half price Hotel room coupons, and special deal car rental coupons. The usefulness varies depending on your needs and usegae, but personally I have always found the hotel ones to save me money.
