Great Q!
I have just looked quickly; their offerings aren't for Marriotts, Kimptons. I did see Best Western, Hiltons, Joie de Vivre and others. |

Searching for deals that I will use if these are CPQP. I started with one night stays to max points/$$. So far I have mostly seen hotels for $110 to earn 4,000 WN points. On the points high side for a one night stay, I see the following:
8,000 points: Miami Beach The Astor Hotel ($379) Boston Harbor Hotel ($495) Los Angeles Millennium Biltmore Hotel ($263) Los Angeles Loews Hollywood Hotel Los Angeles Montage Beverly Hills Vancouver BC Four Seasons Vancouver Honolulu Hawaii Prince Hotel Waikiki Honolulu The Kahala Hotel & Resort 7,000 points: NYC The James New York - Soho Phoenix Royal Palms Resort and Spa San Diego La Jolla Cove Suites Los Angeles The Line 6,000 points: San Antonio El Tropicano Riverwalk Hotel San Antonio Riverwalk Plaza Hotel San Antonio Hyatt Regency Hill Country Hotel Sax Chicago Chicago The Talbott Hotel Chicago Swissotel Chicago Orlando Runaway Beach Club ($149) Miami Area Deauville Beach Resort Miami Area Mayfair Hotel and Spa Miami Area Lord Balfour Miami Area Hotel Nash Miami Area Sense Beach House Miami Area Metropole South Beach Miami Area Pelican Hotel Miami Area Impala Hotel Miami Area Four Seasons Miami Philadelphia Clarion Hotel Conference Center Essington NYC City Club Hotel Boston Colonnade Boston Copley Square Back Bay Boston Lenox Hotel Boston Hotel Buckminster Phoenix Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain San Diego BEST WESTERN PLUS Hacienda Hotel Old Town San Diego The Westgate Hotel San Diego Pacific Terrace Hotel Los Angeles O Hotel Los Angeles Le Parc Suite Hotel Los Angeles Chamberlain West Hollywood San Francisco Holiday Inn SAN FRANCISCO-CIVIC CENTER ($208) San Francisco Hotel Griffon Portland The Governor Hotel Portland Hotel Lucia Vancouver BC River Rock Casino Resort Vancouver BC La Grande Residence At The Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver BC Rosewood Hotel Georgia Toronto Trump International Hotel and Tower Toronto Montreal Le St-Martin Hotel Centre-ville Oahu Turtle Bay Resort 5000 Points: Chicago Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport Chicago The Allerton Hotel Chicago, Magnificent Mile Chicago Majestic Hotel Chicago Hyatt Regency Chicago Chicago Dana Hotel and Spa Chicago Thompson Chicago Chicago The Whitehall Hotel Detroit Inn on Ferry Street Peabody Memphis New Orleans Queen and Crescent Hotel Orlando DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Orlando Airport ($130) Orlando Lighthouse Key Resort and Spa Orlando Westgate Lakes Resort and Spa Orlando Floridays Orlando Resort Orlando Fantasy World Club Villas Orlando The Villas Of Grand Cypress Miami Area - lots from $218 / night Baltimore Hilton Garden Inn Baltimore Inner Harbor Annapolis The O'Callaghan Annapolis Hotel Washington DC Hyatt Regency Crystal City Philadelphia Crowne Plaza PHILADELPHIA WEST NYC - Lots from $269 Boston The Eliot Hotel Boston Hotel Commonwealth Boston Seaport Boston Hotel Phoenix Hotel San Carlos Salt Lake City Grand America Hotel San Diego Porto Vista Hotel ($159) San Diego - lots more from $159 Los Angeles Hotel Amarano Burbank Los Angeles Grafton on Sunset Los Angeles Elan Hotel Los Angeles San Francisco Holiday Inn SAN FRANCISCO-FISHERMANS WHARF San Francisco Hotel Nikko San Francisco San Francisco Mystic Hotel by Charlier Palmer San Francisco Nob Hill Hotel San Francisco Hyatt Fishermans Wharf San Francisco Best Western Plus The Tuscan OR Coast Elizabeth Street Inn Bend OR Shilo Inn Bend Seattle Hotel Max Seattle Warwick Seattle Hotel Seattle Red Lion Hotel on Fifth Ave Seattle Roosevelt Hotel Seattle Sorrento Hotel Seattle The Fairmont Olympic Hotel Seattle Hotel Andra Seattle Hotel 1000 Vancouver BC Sandman Hotel Vancouver City Centre Vancouver BC Hyatt Regency Vancouver Vancouver BC Georgian Court Hotel Vancouver BC Coast Coal Harbour Hotel Montreal Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel Montreal Montreal Auberge du Vieux Port Honolulu Pacific Beach Hotel Honolulu Waikiki Parc Hotel Honolulu Trump International Hotel Waikiki Beach Walk |
Dang! I just booked The Royal Palms last week!
|
If it turns out they are CPQP's, I will probably be all in, at least until I am certain of re-qualification. After that, I will add to my Hilton Honors total just to score that great Points+$ rate from time to time and a resort vacation every other year.
I connected via the chat box about hotel points and they said it would be up to the property, the good non-answer. If it is like other sites with Hilton, it will definitely be a gamble scoring points both ways. |
The points are all over the place. I was looking at a property in Houston for 8,000 points that dropped off in a day, so there are probably capacity limits.
Some properties will give 2,000 ppd for week long stays, some of them never budge off 1000 ppd. As an A+, the points per $ spent equation doesn't make sense unless my CP is in danger. Cheaper and easier to book a resort for a few days than to fly a grand circle tour with WN. |
There must be some limitations on capacity. I checked the date of my Royal Palms stay and the hotel isn't even listed. Another random date also did not show a listing for the Royal Palms.

Seems like these are way overpriced and very limited, found nothing for LAS for example
|
I received the promotion email on this from southwest last night. Looks like it won't count toward cp. Or at least the 3k bonus won't count. The verbiage seems to speak specifically to the 3k as not counting
"Member will receive a maximum of 3,000 bonus points in addition to points earned for the hotel reservation. Bonus points will not count toward A-List, A-List Preferred, or Companion Pass qualification. Please allow four to six weeks from date of check out for points to post to your account." |
