Book Preferred Hotels & Resorts Stays Online with Choice Points
Choice Hotels and Preferred Hotels & Resorts have long had a partnership, but redeeming Choice Privileges points has not been all that easy. Now that has changed as many Preferred Hotels properties are available to book online. That makes the process much easier, and adds value to the Choice Privileges program.
For those who are not familiar with Preferred Hotels & Resorts, this is a hotel chain, or group, with over 650 independent hotels, resorts, and residences, across 85 countries. Preferred Hotels & Resorts does not own, operate, or manage any of the hotels.
How To Book Preferred Hotels with Choice Points
You can book your Preferred Hotels & Resorts stays here with Choice points. Pricing ranges between 20,000 to 55,000 points per night.
If you don’t have enough points for a booking, then you need to check availability at this link. If availability is there, you can then transfer points to the Choice Privileges program on work on getting more points.
It’s also worth noting that while Choice awards can be booked no more than 100 days prior to planned arrival, that rule doesn’t apply to Preferred Hotels & Resorts bookings
How To Earn Choice Points
The best options to get more Choice Privileges points is through credit card welcome offers, or by transferring points from other transferable currencies.
Choice Hotels has two credit cards issued by Wells Fargo. The Choice Privileges Select Mastercard has a 60,00 points welcome offer and the Choice Privileges Mastercard has a 40,000 points offer. At launch we saw much better bonuses.
If you’re looking to transfer points, then you still have several options. Citi ThankYou and Wells Fargo Autograph cards lets you transfer points at a 1:2 ratio. Capital One and American Express also let you transfer points to Choice Privileges, but at a 1:1 ratio.
Buying points is also another option, if you can get a good enough redemption value to make it worthwhile.
