Choice Privileges members who earn points by staying at Choice's Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality, Sleep Inn, Clarion and MainStay Suites hotel brands may redeem points to earn free nights at any of the 129 luxurious Preferred Hotels properties worldwide. With hotels in 21 countries, Preferred hotels and resorts are among the finest in the world. The company prides itself on the distinctiveness and diversity of its properties, in terms of their location, ambiance, decor and culture.
As always with the Choice Privileges rewards program, there are no blackout date restrictions on point redemption at a Preferred property. Awards nights must be booked within 30 days of arrival for locations in the U.S. and Canada and within 60 days of arrival for all other locations.
"From skiing at The Lodge at Vail to snorkeling at the Quinta Real Acapulco, from hitting the links at The Sanctuary at Kiawah Island to hiking the mountains at The Carlton Hotel in St. Moritz, Preferred represents luxurious hotels and resorts at the world's premier leisure travel destinations," said Wayne Wielgus, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Choice Hotels. "This agreement with Preferred as our luxury affiliate elevates our Choice Privileges guest rewards program to a level typically found only in upscale hotel companies' rewards programs."
Wielgus added that Choice Privileges members may also redeem points for stays at more than 4,000 Choice brand hotels worldwide, airline miles with 10 major airlines or gift certificates from more than 100 retail outlets. "The luxury accommodations provided by Preferred properties are a perfect complement to the existing Choice Privileges rewards options," he said.
"We are honored to be Choice Hotels' exclusive luxury hotel partner," said Michelle Woodley, vice president of distribution and marketing services for Preferred Hotels & Resorts. "This partnership affords us the opportunity to reach large audience of frequent and loyal travelers through one of the largest hotels companies in the world.
