In 2020 and 2021, many major hotel companies offered some of their most generous promotions. That’s how some TPG staffers earned top-tier Hyatt Globalist with just 10 nights in Hyatt hotels. But now that travel is rebounding from the pandemic, those days are far behind us.
As a whole, hotel promotions aren’t quite as generous as they once were. But from helping you accrue additional points to earning elite status faster, they certainly should be on your radar.
Keeping track of the latest hotel bonuses can be difficult — especially if you’re juggling points and elite status with multiple programs.
With that in mind, this guide covers current promotions across the major hotel chains. Bookmark this page for regularly updated offers, links and other information about your favorite hotel programs. We’ll also discuss which offers will get you the most bang for your buck.
This article focuses on limited-time promotions and excludes ongoing offers like AAA and AARP member discounts. Further, the list doesn’t include ongoing offers on cobranded hotel credit cards, but you can check out the following links for details on these cards:
