According to The Points Guy, Choice points are valued at 0.6 cents per point. This means that you can stay at the Country Inn & Suites By Radisson in Cumming, Georgia, for approximately $60 worth of points per night. This property is conveniently located near Lake Lanier, making it a great option for an overnight stay between Atlanta and the mountains of North Georgia.
When redeeming Choice points, you can often book different room types for the same number of points at many hotels. For example, at the Sleep Inn & Suites in Foley, Alabama, you can choose between a king bed with a Jacuzzi or three queen beds for the same number of points as a standard room.
While many of the featured hotels have good guest reviews and some have even won awards, not all properties on the list are highly rated. The Quality Inn & Suites in Aiken, South Carolina, has a guest review rating of 3.0 out of 5, with only 51% of guests recommending the hotel.
To earn Choice points quickly, you can transfer American Express Membership Rewards points or Capital One miles to Choice at a 1:1 ratio. If you have certain Citi credit cards, you can transfer Citi ThankYou Rewards points to Choice at a 1:2 ratio. Buying Choice points or opening a Choice Privileges credit card and meeting the minimum spending requirements for the sign-up bonus are also viable options to earn points.
In conclusion, Choice Hotels’ Sweet Spot Rewards promotion offers members the opportunity to book discounted award nights at select properties. The current list of featured hotels includes options in the United States, Canada, France, and Italy. By taking advantage of this promotion and maximizing the value of Choice points, travelers can enjoy affordable stays at various desirable locations.
