ROCKVILLE, Md., Dec. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH) announced today that its Choice Privileges rewards program received the Best Hotel Loyalty Program distinction on USA Today's 10 Best Readers' Choice Award list. This award follows the successful redesign of the program, which included a series of new benefits allowing guests to receive greater and faster rewards. A panel of experts partnered with 10 Best editors to select nominees and the top 10 winners were determined by USA Today readers' popular vote.
"We are honored to receive this recognition from USA Today readers and travel experts. We significantly improved our member benefits this year and we've been very pleased that we have not only increased our membership, but that our Choice Privileges members are more engaged than ever," said Robert McDowell, Chief Commercial Officer, Choice Hotels.
Key program enhancements include:
-- Your Extras. Weekday travelers earn instant rewards right when they
check in. For each qualifying stay that includes at least one weekday
night, U.S. members can choose a special reward, such as Fuel Rewards
savings at participating Shell locations, discounts on Uber trips and
Amazon.com credit. International members have two options: 500 bonus
points or 100 airline miles from participating airline carriers.
-- FlexRewards. Get to a free night faster - members can redeem points for
free nights at discounted point levels at participating hotels, varying
by season. There are up to 2,000 hotels reduced during either the
weekdays or weekend at any time.
-- Digital Gift Cards. Choice is the first hotel company to offer immediate
in-app gift card downloads. Members can receive instant gratification
with new digital gift cards.
-- Keep Your Points. As long as members stay active by completing a
qualifying activity at least once every 18 months, they get to keep
their points.
-- 10 Points per Dollar. All Choice Hotels now earn 10 points per dollar
spent - including economy and extended stay hotels. During seasonal
promotions, it is now easier than ever to qualify since members no
longer need to stay two consecutive nights at economy brands.
-- Exclusive Rates. Existing and new Choice Privileges members now have
access to exclusive room rates that are up to a 7% discount off the best
available rate by booking directly on www.ChoiceHotels.com or the Choice
mobile app. If a guest finds a lower price elsewhere, ChoiceHotels.com
will match the price and give U.S. residents a $50.00 Visa gift card
bonus. International residents will receive their first night free.
