The offer indicates it's targeted and not transferable so I guess it's not going out to everyone.

The included HHonors Gold card says it's 03/2013 (pretty nice -- I expected it would just be until spring of 2012). The letter also included an offer for 50,000 bonus points ("two free nights") after four stays between July 1st and October 31st, plus 500 DM after the first stay.

An interesting side note -- the letter was dated June 27, 2011. I wonder where it's been sitting for the past month.
I just received the same invite based upon my 'United airlines' travel. Valid through 03/13, but only a bonus of 6K points for 4 stays during the July 1-Oct 31 period.

And it was also dated June 27.

NB: I rarely stay at chain hotels.
