Until now.

I just stayed for five nights at the NH Collections Pódium Barcelona on a Long Stay Rate, booking the hotel via the GHA app. I just checked my Titanium dashboard and noticed that my stayed was deemed “Ineligible” for status credits or D$ earnings.

Nowhere on the booking portal did it say anything about D$ or status accumulation not being applied. I eventually found buried in the T&C’s; “GHA reserves the right to amend the list of eligible rates at any given time, without prior notice.”

What would be more honest and upfront would to put a disclaimer under each hotel’s room rate whether GHA Dollars and status apply to the booking. It really isn’t transparent. I booked the Pódium because of the Double Dollars deal, but based on what’s happened here, I think I will be looking elsewhere.
