Are Free Hotel Nights WORTH 24 Hours of Christmas Music?
Joe Cortez December 07, 2021
The online travel agency announced their latest contest, the “Not-So-Silent Night,” offering one person 25 free hotel nights next year if they can survive 24 hours of Christmas music in a hotel suite.
Free Hotel Nights Requires Guest to Endure One Whole Day of Christmas Tunes
For those who think they have what it takes, Hotels.com has created the ultimate challenge of holiday fortitude. One entrant into the contest will be given the chance to go one whole day in a specially decorated hotel suite blasting the most festive of tunes all day and night.
“This year, Hotels.com has the ultimate challenge for extreme holiday music fans: the Hotels.com Not-So-Silent Night Challenge,” the company describes on their website. “A 24 hour overnight stay in a totally decked-to-the-halls holiday hotel suite where holiday songs will be playing. ALL. NIGHT. LONG.”
The suite at Chicago’s Fairmont on the Magnificent Mile is decorated from top to bottom in a cascade of red, white and green, complete with a dance floor and DJ Santa Claus overlooking the bed. Just for making the attempt, the lucky guest will get a $1,000 travel stipend, $500 in room service credits, and a wake-up video from Lance Bass.
However, they have to stay in the room for all 24 hours – no matter how hard listening to the music gets – to win the 25 free nights from Hotels.com, valued at up to $250 each. If they can’t make all 24 hours, or are unable to otherwise check in on December 19, 2021, they won’t get the free nights.
To enter the contest, flyers must submit an entry form with their Instagram and Twitter handles, along with a 75-word explanation as to why they should be the one to attempt the challenge. Short videos can also accompany the entry, which will be judged based on creativity and originality, quality and fit to the theme.
Hotel Brands Give Guests Reasons to Celebrate the Holiday Season
Even if enduring 24 hours of Christmas music isn’t your ideal way of getting free nights, hotel programs are still offering travelers reasons for holiday cheer. Both Hilton Honors and Marriott Bonvoy are extending current loyalty status through the year 2022, just in time to earn a status match with Frontier Miles.

love christmas music, its a joy!
So I can I take a sleeping bill and be unconcious for most of it?
If one can endure 2 minutes of "rap" music, 24 hours of CM should be easy.
Noise cancelling headphones.
AirPod pro. Good old fashioned earplugs.
At least they don't force you to spend 24 hours with Caption Obvious.
