Best Western Rewards is the hotel loyalty program for Best Western Hotels & Resorts, SureStay hotels, and WorldHotels, and a loyalty program that you definitely want to be a member of. Here’s why.
Wide Brand Portfolio
Best Western Hotels is a leading global hospitality enterprise comprised of the following three hotel companies:
Best Western Hotels & Resorts, traditional hotels ranging from modest options to unique boutiques and upscale options,
SureStay hotels, value and extended stay hotels for budget friendly travellers, and
WorldHotels, unique independent hotels and resorts offering handcrafted, luxury experiences.
The Best Western Hotels portfolio has a global network of approximately 4,300 hotels in over 100 countries and territories worldwide. This means, you have a wide range of properties to choose from no matter where your travels take you to.
Member Rates
By becoming a Best Western Rewards member, you are automatically entitled to member rates, which are typically a discount of 10% or more off the published regular flexible rates.
Valued Promotional Offers
Best Western often runs promotional offers that could give you better value for your money. Some examples of promotions include:
Stay two nights, get a $50 gift card
Stay three nights, get 10,000 bonus points
Stay two nights, get a free night redeemable at any Best Western property in North America
You just have to register for the promotional offer first prior to booking your stay.
Earn Elite Status Faster
Best Western Rewards has four elite status tiers and it is not difficult at all to progress to the next tier or retain your current tier.
Five nights is all it takes to get bumped up to Gold but don’t get too excited; the only additional benefits you’ll get other than bonus points for qualifying nights is complimentary water upon arrival.
No Catch Status Match
If you hold elite status with another hotel loyalty program, Best Western will instantly match your status for free.
All you need to do is email StatusMatch@bestwestern.com with your full name, address, email address, phone number, Best Western Rewards member number, and proof of elite status with the other hotel program, for example, a screenprint or copy of your other program's loyalty card or account statement.
Earn Airline Miles Instead
Instead of earning Best Western Reward points, you can choose to earn airline miles with any of the approved partner frequent flyer programs. You may be awarded different point values based on the rules and conditions of the individual airline program.
Points Never Expire
Best Western Rewards points never expire, unless you violate the terms of the program. This means you can redeem your points for free travel, gift cards, or products any time you want and as often as you want.
Easy to Redeem
Points redemption is super easy. You can pay for your next booking with all points or with points and cash. Award night prices range from 5,000 to 70,000 points per night and there are no blackout dates. I recommend comparing the cost in points versus the cost in cash, as some of Best Western hotels can be fairly cheap when paid for in cash.
Best Western Rewards also has a Redemption Mall, which allows you to redeem your points for gift cards and charity donations. You can also convert your points into airline miles with certain airline programs.
Gift A Free Night
Best Western Rewards allows you to redeem your points to gift a free night to immediate family members (spouse, partner, children, parents, in-laws, siblings). You can transfer amounts between 5,000 and 70,000 points, and it is completely free to do so.
Conclusion
Best Western hotels are plentiful in Canada and the United States, which makes it worthwhile to be a member of the brand’s loyalty program, the Best Western Rewards Program. The program is relatively straight forward in terms of earning and redeeming, and giving yourself another option to earn free night stays never hurts.
