Anything else I should think about?
SPG, which includes Westin and LeMeridien, will allow you to do a challenge for status. 15 nights in 90 days equals Platinum (top tier) status.

Du you have a loyalty credit card? Will your employer allow you to use it to charge your travel related expenses? Check into getting a card with the hotel you will be staying with. You will often receive bonus points when you charge your stay.
