Starwood Offers Double, Triple Points for Fall Stays

Starwood's Triple Up promotion is noteworthy because it's from Starwood. But it's only one among several major hotel promotions for fall stays. And it's not among the most generous.

Offer Details

Between September 6 and December 18, Starwood Preferred Guest members can earn triple points for stays that include a Thursday or Sunday night, and double points for other stays. There's no limit to the number of bonus points that may be earned.

Of Starwood's 1,000-plus properties, only around 875 hotels are participating in this promotion. So be sure to check the list of non-participating hotels before assuming that an upcoming stay will qualify for a bonus.

Registration is required, by November 15, but program members won't be able to register until September 6.

Deal or No Deal

Double or triple points isn't a particularly strong offer. Among competing promotions, Choice Hotels is offering quadruple points, and Marriott's fall/winter promotion features a free night after two stays.

The limited number of participating properties further undermines the Starwood promotion.

Bottom line: This may be just enough to keep Starwood die-hards onboard this fall. Others are likely to find better bonuses elsewhere.
