Marriott Bonvoy, the loyalty program by Marriott International, is offering a limited-time promotion called Escapes, where guests can save up to 20% off the standard room rates at select hotel and resort properties worldwide. This promotion is available every other Thursday through Sunday, starting from January 31, 2024. However, availability is limited, so it is advisable to book your reservations as soon as possible to secure the discount.
The discount offered through the Escapes promotion varies depending on whether you are a member of the Marriott Bonvoy frequent guest loyalty program or not. Members of the program can enjoy a 20% discount on the guest room standard rate, while non-members will receive a 15% discount. If you are not already a member, you can join the program for free and take advantage of the higher discount.
It is important to note that this promotion does have certain terms and conditions. The specific details of each offer can be found on the booking page of the promotion. Additionally, individual hotel cancellation policies will apply, so it is essential to review them before making a reservation. The promotion is not available at certain hotel brands such as St. Regis, The Ritz-Carlton, Edition, Bulgari, Design Hotels, and Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy. In the Asia Pacific region, excluding Greater China, the promotion is not available at JW Marriott, W Hotels, and The Luxury Collection.
To take advantage of the discount, rates must be prepaid at the time of reservation. Changes to a reservation are subject to availability and any rate differences. Refunds for prepaid reservations may take up to 90 days to be processed from the date of cancellation. The standard rate refers to the publicly available retail rate offered by participating hotels to individual guests.
The advance booking requirement varies depending on the region. In the United States, Canada, Caribbean, and Latin America, at least 48 hours advance booking is required. In Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, at least 24 hours advance booking is required. In Asia Pacific, excluding Greater China, at least seven days advance booking is required for a limited number of properties.
Marriott Vacations Worldwide, including Marriott, Sheraton, and Westin Vacation Ownership resorts, is included in this policy for transient reservations only. The participating resorts are available all days of the week, subject to availability. However, a limited number of rooms are available and will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. Some hotels may not be available on select dates. Rates are for standard rooms, per night, based on single or double occupancy. Rates do not include taxes, fees, other costs, or gratuities.
It is worth noting that rates booked directly on Marriott booking channels are eligible for Marriott Bonvoy points. However, rates booked through third-party online retailers like Expedia, Booking.com, and Priceline, as well as select travel agent rates, do not qualify for Marriott Bonvoy points.
While this promotion offers a decent discount, it is not as generous as before. The discount used to be 25%, available starting on Wednesdays, and offered every week. However, it is still a great opportunity to save money on your hotel stays. Just make sure to take advantage of the promotion as soon as possible, as supplies are limited.
In conclusion, Marriott Bonvoy’s Escapes promotion offers exclusive savings of up to 20% off the guest room standard rate at participating hotel and resort properties worldwide. The discount is available to members of the Marriott Bonvoy frequent guest loyalty program and non-members. However, availability is limited, so it is advisable to book your reservations as soon as possible. Make sure to review the terms and conditions and individual hotel cancellation policies before making a reservation. Enjoy your discounted stays with Marriott Bonvoy!
