ChoiceHotels "Senior" Discount Has Changed
In the past, have stayed at several ChoiceHotels properties under their "seniors discount", which provideed a 30% discount off the prevailing room rate, not the very inflated rack rate.
Formerly the 30% discount was available for people aged 50 plus. Called tonight for a senior discount in Raleigh, NC airport area, and was advised that you now have to be 60 or over to get the 30% discount. Over 50 now only gives a 10% discount. Goodbye!

I would just tell them you want the 'over 60' senior 30% discount, then when you showup at the Hotel to checkin, just show them your AARP card and nobody will ever question it.
