If due to currency exchange, no.

But nothing stopping you from giving it a try - ya never know until you give it a go !

Milan, Italy: Aug 31st to Sep 2nd

Either AC Hotel Milano
31st - 119Eu
1st - 187 Eu
Total - 303Eu

Or, Milan Marriott Hotel
31st - 108 Eu
1st - 185 Eu
Total - 293 Eu

Also, I am not quite sure which hotel to choose. AC hotel looks much newer property and Marriott is quite an hold property. I am member gold so I generally go for Marriott for lounge access. In this case the current promo rates offer free breakfast with VISA payment at both hotels. Don't know if that would still be available with LNF guarantee.

I am having quite the challenge in Birmingham UK, Berlin and Prague over next couple of weeks:

Birmingham UK
16JUN 76 GBP incl VAT
17JUN 100 GBP incl VAT

Berlin
18-20JUN any Marriott portfolio property LNF rate would be fine with me

Prague
21-24JUN any Marriott portfolio property LNF rate would be fine with me

I have never had this much trouble find LNF options.

Thanks!

Thanks, I gave it at shot,

But received this response:

Mr. Venezuela-Miami,

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to review your claim for Marriott's Look No Further(SM) Best Rate Guarantee. I am denying your claim because you have provided a rate for comparison that is only available to the following travelers:
Prepay with Visa:
Visa Free Breakfast Offer
Book and Pay for your stay using a Visa card and get free
breakfast each day for up to 2 guests
Payment will need to be taken from a Visa card at time of
booking to guarantee the advance purchase rate. Please be
advised that all advance purchase rates are charged prior to
your arrival at the hotel.
This rate is non-refundable or changeable.

You can review our terms and conditions here:

Safe Travels,

Am I missing something here?

I have read all the terms and conditions of the BRG thoroughly and can't find the denying cause:

- It was made within the 24 hours timeframe
- It is the same hotel, room type and reservation dates
- its a publicly available rate
- The only add-on is breakfast (in both reservations)

I appreciate your opinions.

Delta Whistler, BC, Canada

Looking for a LNF rate at the Delta Whistler, BC, Canada on June 29. Currently the lowest public rate available is $293 CAD. I'm eligible for the TVL rate at $254.15 CAD but no points, so hoping to find something better. I believe an0m4 is not eligible for LNF.

Could be because it's not available to everyone. Must have a Visa card. ??

After requesting clarification of the denial cause I received this response,
seems fair to me. Only that I couldn't find the minimun amount in the terms and conditions of the LNF.
Anyway it was my frist try

Hello XXX

I am happy to respond to your additional message regarding Marriott's Look No Further(SM) Best Rate Guarantee.

Both of the rates that you are comparing are only available for Marriott Members. I have researched your claim again and the rates that you are comparing are less than $1 difference. For that reason, I cannot approve your claim.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!

Safe Travels,

XXX

You should be reserving the regular rate not the Marriott member rate when filing an LNF.

Since that is higher you stand a better chance of finding.

Of course if you can't find anything for comparisons, then book your stay with the member rate or use a code for the best deal.

Looking for help with a few specific dates on upcoming trips:

Budapest - Aug 3-4 - Courtyard Budapest City Center - standard rate is EUR 124 + 27.28 = 151.28
Budapest - Aug 4-5 - Budapest Marriott - standard rate EUR 174 + 38.28 = 212.28

I would consider other city center properties for either above date but those seems most reasonable to me.

Also:

Sydney AU - Aug 22-23 - Harbor Marriott at Circular Quay - std rate 379 AUD (tax incl)
Again, would consider the other downtown property if a suitable LNF is found (Pier One Sydney Harbor)

Thanks in advance!
