Earning Night Credits for Multiple Rooms
 

The new terms and conditions indicate (Sec 2.1.d(i)(3)) indicate that I can earn points for up to 3 consecutive rooms at a time. But do I receive Earned Night Credits for all 3 rooms also? eg. If I check in for 2 nights to 3 rooms, will I receive 6 night credits upon departure? if so, can anyone point to where in the T&Cs it covers this and/or if you had personal experiece with them posting this way?

I haven’t had luck finding this through a search so my apologies if this has been asked and answered.

No, you only get night credit for your own room and points for up to three rooms as long as they are booked under your account and you pay for the room(s). At least according to the T&Cs, now some properties mess up and you might get night credit for the other rooms, but, given Marriott is getting chincy, that could be pulled back should they do an audit on your account. There are many holes in the T&Cs and Marriott is good at putting a lot of wiggle room in their terms, so don't expect explicit terms that they might be held to.

I have a stay coming up with 2 rooms. I understand I won't get night credit for both rooms which is OK as I am already past 75 nights and roll over nights are gone

The question I have is:
Will I get Platinum Premier arrival gift miles for both rooms or only one room? Infact, will the hotel even offer for both rooms or just one room?

The property is Renaissance, Kuala Lumpur

I have a question regarding 25 stays to hit platinum.
I understand that Marriott will honor stays until end of year for stays.
My question is do marriott still honor 3 rooms = 3 stays for 1 night terms?
As its not in the T&C it only stated that will honor the stays credited for elite.

Thanks.

The PAG is for the member room only. Now some properties may extend (I don't know this particular one) but don't expect it. This also includes enhanced Wifi, if they offer it. Program benefits are for the member, not anyone/everyone they might know.

Why should this be the case? There have been several times where I'm staying in a city for an extended time and then visit a smaller outlying area. Rather than check out of my primary hotel, I'll just pack a small overnight bag and head out for one or two nights and then return. This was never an issue with SPG before and in fact would get points/nights/stay credit for both properties. Why is this grounds for program termination at Marriott and where in the T&Cs is this detailed?

The general premise is an individual can only be in one place at a time and the program calls for the member to be present to earn the credit. There are absolutely several corner cases, like yours, that are very legitimate and even if/when blocked by the system can/should be unblocked by a trained CSR. However, there are some that blatantly game the system by booking anyone they know under their account in order to gain status or earn points that they do not deserve. Simply put this is fraud and every program has T&Cs that allow them to "fire" a member.

This situation which is totally legit for instance in a city like Mumbai where if you have a meeting in one part of town you might to have to stay at another hotel for one night to avoid hours and hours stuck in a traffic jam in the evening. I would inform MR prior to my stay and explain the situation if they say no you cant get credit or you are not allowed to stay without risking getting your account closed I would just stay somewhere else at the competition

It wasn't grounds for program termination in Marriott, no. I did it more than once (the exact situation you describe). The old terms (as I recall) were you would earn points, but not qualifying nights. Marriott had no concept of stays (outside of promos, but that's another discussion).

I believe the "you should be kicked out of the program" is one poster's opinion and does not represent Marriott's past or current terms and stated position.

Thanks

So if offered PAG for the second room, I will pick a non point amenity.

I understand program benefits are for the member, but it's not like anyone/everyone situation, I am paying for both the rooms and I will be surprised if Marriott members pay for rooms of any/every one they know. There was no need for this statement.

Credit for simultaneous rooms?
