Platinum Challenge, BRG, Multiple Rooms
Hi, I have a few related questions and not sure exactly where to post them.
I am on a platinum challenge. I know in the usual course you can get credit for 3 rooms/night toward elite status. Is that true on a challenge also? In my case I am traveling with family and would book 3 or 4 rooms a night (I realize I might only get credit for 3).
Second, do BRG-ed nights count toward the challenge (and status generally)?
Thanks in advance!

not sure about the first question, but as related to your 2nd question, yes - the BRG-ed nights earn you starpoints thus those nights will be considered eligible towards elite status

2. Yes BRG rates can be used for the challenge
I realise that some have said that the 3 rooms/night do not apply for a challenge but I was with a friend who did exactly that several months ago.

I can also confirm that up to 3 rooms count for the challenge, as I have successfully done the challenge last month (3rooms x 5nights + 1 room x 3nights, two different stays).

Did mine a few months ago with 2 rooms and BRG. No Problems whatsoever.

I have a question about something similar.
Can I book 3 rooms at one hotel, and 3 rooms at another hotel on the same day to receive credit for 6 eligible stays?
These will be points stays.

So read the terms and if they state "member's room", then you should only get credit for one room per night. Good luck.

Of course there are exceptions and YMMV situations.
Something for the Earning Credit for Multiple Rooms thread
