Do they not ask you for ID by check in? Would I call the hotel and say that someone else is checking in?

I'll probably be available on Thursday night, but I need to know ASAP.

Are there really any SPG properties available this week for under $65, anywhere near a metropolitan area?

myr707 · « **Reply #46 on:** December 25, 2012, 04:13:16 PM »

Cheapest I have found is 79 in the NY NJ area.

Is that Pittsburgh? If yes, it isn't anywhere near the tri-state area. (6 hour drive from central Jersey, and 7 from Brooklyn NY)

I know. I spent a while looking through many states, and that was the cheapest. Nothing near that in NY/NJ/CT/DE or nearby PA.

I have C&P near me for 1600 points I can probably find you someone willing to pay the $30 if that helps you

Very worth it - that can be worth > $500
If it's a empty SPG account that you don't use I'll gladly take it

Mimi K. · « **Reply #55 on:** December 25, 2012, 07:21:55 PM »

it has 29k in it

Correct I misunderstood I assumed this promo was over and figured you were going for platinum
I'm seeing for $98 near me

Hey guys. I just received a promotion from SPG entitled "SPG Bonus Beginnings." The promotion states that I will receive 4k Starpoints for each eligible* stay up to 12k Starpoints (which translates to three total stays). The fine print says that I have to pay fully for all stays and cannot use starpoints or the starpoints + cash option.

I am looking to stay at two different Starwood hotels. I wanted to know that if I plan my trip as follows: Night 1 in Hotel A, Night 2 in Hotel B, and Night 3 in Hotel A, would this qualify as 3 different stays? I contacted SPG and asked them if 1 night was considered a stay for this promotion and was informed that 1 night is enough to receive the 4k per stay promotion. I am just curious if I did three hotels for three different nights do you think that I would get the full 12k?

Thanks!

That should work. If you check out and recheck into the same hotel that should also count.
