Accor 5000 miles bonus PER STAY offer. HOT!!!!!!
Not sure if anyone noticed this...
It came to my attention today that Accor (i.e. Sofitel, Novotel, Mercure, Pullman, etc) is offering 5000 Aeroplan Miles PER STAY until the end of the year!!!!

At first, I thought this was too good to be true, but it isn't!
With the numerous Novotel properties in and around Toronto (4), this could easily translate into 20,000 miles in just 4 nights!!!!!!!
INSANE!!!

Any limitations or fine print? If I stay 1 night, I get 5,000 miles?! Is that true?

Limitations are that not all properties are included. Notably the Ibis Budget hotels.
They are running same promo for BA Executive Club members but they get only 2500 miles per stay. But 2500 miles can get say between LHR and many countries in Europe oneway on a cash plus miles basis. Sadly AC doesn't have that. Although true 4x stays will get me 20,000. But what can you do with 20,000 miles these days?

Considering all the trouble we go through with SPG just to earn 20,000 points just so we can convert those points into Aeroplan for 25,000 miles, I would have to agree with you! That sounds like a terrific deal!

BRG= Best Rate Guarantee
Here's a useful link:
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/starw...er-thread.html
You can get 2000 Starpoints if you're able to get a valid claim (not always that difficult). This takes a bit of research, but it isn't that hard.
However, now you can't claim against 2 hotels in the same geographic area in a week. You used to be able to. The one sole exception to this rule seems to be that Niagara Falls, NY and Niagara Falls, ON are considered to be separate for the purposes of the guarantee, and, as such, you could claim against both Sheratons in a week and still get the 2000 points.

Besides, there are some pretty good weekend rates (around $80) at some of the Novotel properties around here...

I have 20k Le Club points currently which I'd like to keep there. Does anyone know if I select "auto conversion", will it convert my existing points, or just those for my future stays?

Enabling the autoconversion will sweep all your current points to miles. You can issue award vouchers first.
