3 different reservations for a stay
I have 3 different reservations for my next stay at Sheraton Miyako. the second reservation which is in the middle is award reservation.
Will I be able to combine the reservations? I need to pay it as 1 bill. I understand the hotel can transfer the amount but will this cause any issue when the # nights got posted into my accounts?

You can combine points + cash online with marriott. i.e. night 1 cash, night 2-3 award, night 4 cash, night 5 award, etc.
However that isn't available with all rate types.

i still have redemption booking at night 3 actually, but the rate difference between night 2 and 3 is very huge, is like 25%. Night 2 is even more expensive than night 1

I'd first check with cc issuer to see if it is cumulative spend, or a one-time spend. There was an AMEX offer for Marriott a few months back, which I thought was a one-time spend, but upon calling happily found out was based on cumulative spend. Sure enough, the credit posted after my second stay when I crossed the spend threshold.

I do this all the time with Hilton (maybe with Marriott, too, but I can't remember a specific). When I check in I tell them I have multiple consecutive reservations (so I don't have to check in and out for each one). I've always gotten one bill at the end.

OP might want to contact the hotel in advance to request that rooms be assigned so that there's no need to switch rooms during the stay. Otherwise, you can try asking at check in for the reservations to be combined, but I've had difficulty in the past with front desk supervisors telling me that this was done when it wasn't.

I have no issue with the stay. Upon check in, I told the staff that I got 2 other reservations and he found it.
Upon check out, I have noticed there may potential issue as the folio showed arrival on 13-Jan and departure on 14-Jan.
In the details there is room charge for 11 and 13 Jan. Now the stay has posted. I think the points is correct but it posted only for 1 night as it shows 13-14 Jan, and Marriott does not show night credit.
Luckily this is my first stay, so I can easily find out.
I just sent an email to Spgchampion. I hope this will get rectified soon.
Quite frustrating experience.
