AFAIK, when you book on the websites, you can call into the hotel chain and have them link the stay to your loyalty membershp.. If the rate qualifies for stay credit will depend on hotel policy..

With Fairmont, most rates do qualify for stay credit towards status..

Under the Hilton rules you will not get stay credit and points/miles for third party booking sites.

Also, most "opaque" booking sites, such as Priceline, where you do not select the specific hotel, but merely bid a price for a room, are not eligible for stay/night credit in most hotel programs.
