Delta Hotels (Canada) and Air Canada Promo

Hello there all, I was hoping I could get a question answered by those who know anything about the 15% off an Air Canada flight, with a stay at a Delta Hotel.

I'm going to be flying from Boston to Halifax on the 7th of August, and will be coming back on the 16th. AC's fares have gotten pretty high all of a sudden (after a few months of nothing but promotions), but they're offering first class with a layover for $332, or direct in coach for $336. I'm going to try the first class, just to see what it's like for once.

Anyway, I know the promotion is only good on the Canadian part of the travel, not the US, so I'm not going to get a full 15% off, that's no big deal. But what I wanted to know, is if I had to stay at the Delta hotel for the entire stay of the trip, to qualify for the discount. In Halifax I've stayed at the Residence Inn, Citadel, Holiday Inn (the one downtown), the Delta Barrington, and the Westin (three times.) By far the Westin has been our favorite (and the Delta Barrington one of our least), but we'd rather be right in the middle of downtown, and I've always been partial to the Marriott brand, but I've never been able to spring for their rates. I can get advance purchase rate ($179) from the 8th until the 12th, the 13th and 14th a promotional rate of $199, followed by the 15th, $20.09.


In short: Can I stay at a Delta hotel for the 7th of August, and get the 15% discount on the Canadian portion of my Air Canada flights, on both the 7th and 16th?
