Thanks for posting!! Looks good! This actually looks more like UNLIMITED pts, not just up to 6k pts. Seems like you can get up to 6k pts per property, and there are MANY participating properties!!! But what is the nonsense about already booked stays not counting for this promo? As far as I know SPG hasn't had a stupid rule like that before, have they??? Or was this promo just pushed through too quickly as well with the wrong T&Cs like the Le Meridien promo?

Also the 2nd and 3rd stay bonuses are for stays at the *same* participating hotel or resort. Also, the following shortcut will take you directly to a map with SPG properties centered around an airport (or metro area): http://www.pointmaven.com/SPG/WAS (replace WAS with an airport/metro code). |
This offer cannot be combined with other offers and is not applicable to groups. If so, why bother having this promo since I'm sure most people have already signed up for the other one. |
great point... but if i remember correctly... you can max out on the Q1 promo...for some of the choices.
|
Thanks for that :)

If so, why bother having this promo since I'm sure most people have already signed up for the other one. Starwood continues to impress ^^. It should be a very fruitful Q1 for me, since I have lots of upcoming travel. I'll be directing close to 100% of my stays to Starwood. Three great promos happening concurrently - Le Meridien earn 4 stays, the Q1 promo and this promo. It is unfortunate that I will need to rebook 10 or so current bookings (especially since they are already lined up with the 500 booking bonus), but it is a small price to pay. Hopefully the Helpdesk site will come up again shortly. SG |
well at least they are stackable

Thanks to boazs for posting this! I registered and immediately saw that one of the hotels I stay at most is on the list. I don't have any plans to stay there during the promo, but I bet I can work 3 stays there into my plans!
Question though for William when he notices this thread. The promo says "Earn up to 6,000 points." Someone upthread suggested the earning are potentially infinite, that it's just 6,000 per hotel. I want to be sure that is true. If one can earn the bonus at multiple hotels, that makes sense. The promo will encourage me to try and make 3 stays at each of the hotels I stay at during the promo period, or as many as possible up to 3. I'd likely do it at several hotels. But before I book those I want to be sure that the total earning are not limited to 6,000 points on the promo. It would still be a good promo if that is the limit, and I will still do it for 6,000, but I'd generate more stays if can do 6,000 repeatedly! |
deleted ... answered my own question

i couldn't disagree more. while they are clearly point happy right now, they also have had major increases in the points necessary to redeem rooms. the net impact of these promotions for me is negligible.
it must be nice to be able to print your own currency. Personally, even with the change last year and a projected recategorization this February, no other program can currently compete with Starwood in terms of earning power. I'll be averaging 5000 points per night between now and March (mostly 1 night stays). Combine that with the fact that for my travel patterns Starwood offers the best price/performance ratio and that I enjoy most of the Starwood brands. I would be very interested to hear what other hotel chain currently provides the right mix for your travel patterns? SG |
