Topic Wiki

SNA works as follows:

The stay must be booked out of the account where the SNA is coming from. The account holder will add your name and you will be able to check in [YMMV]. If you want to use SPG Marriott suite upgrade make sure you find someone who has them first and let them make the booking. SPG Marriott suite upgrades can be applied to award stays as well.  One SNA can be applied for One Night, a two night reservation will require two SNA's. Some times SNA's can only be applied by desktop.

Once the Suite upgrade is applied you will NOT be confirmed in the suite right away. 5 days before the stay SPG Marriott will look for the suite. If it is available (at their own discretion, just because it shows available online doesn't mean you will get it) they will give it to you. If not they will continue to search until the day of your stay. If they cannot confirm it by then the suite upgrade will be returned to the account.

SNA can not currently be applied to Purchase Advanced reservations.
There is a workaround see :https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?action=post;quote=2145760;topic=92110.1080;last_msg=2149007
or paste this URL when reservation is open. https://www.marriott.com/reservation/requestSuiteNightAwards.mi

If you want to see what suites will be  available without having a SNA, make a temporary reservation open it under "my trips" and paste  the following in the URL box https://www.marriott.com/reservation/requestSuiteNightAwards.mi


Some members selling SNA's will only let you make a cash booking.
Some members selling SNA's do so for little to nothing and are not really making money, it's done as a giveaway for DDF members and they charge a small fee for the time involved. So when proposing a purchase please provide as follows:

Name of Hotel:
Dates:
Room:
Rate to be booked at (incl. tax and fees):
SNA to applied to Suite type (specify):1) 2) 3)


Suite upgrades Cannot be applied to Ritz-Carlton or Edition hotels

I'm gonna do everyone a community service and explain how SPG suite upgrades work:

The stay must be booked out of the account where the suite upgrades are coming from. The account holder will add your name and you will be able to check in. If you want to use SPG suite upgrades make sure you find someone who has them first and let them make the booking. SPG suite upgrades can be applied to award stays as well.

Someone feel free to add this to the wiki. This will save sellers a lot of time

Thanks for the write-up.

When booking an award on another member's account, is there any easy way to transfer the points?

small amounts can go through Marriott. Otherwise change the address and wait 30 days

Have 9 SPG suite upgrades. Giving them away for free on 1 night stays. If the stay is more than 1 night I will charge $50 extra per night if they clear. No charge if they don't clear.

You will also get other platinum benefits such as free breakfast and late checkout

Does anyone know if SPG rules allow this? I did this recently. S/O gave me SNU’s for booking from his account. My wife checked in and I pretended to be the account holder throughout the entire stay. Not something I would be happy doing again. Does anyone know if I really had to do this? What SPG rules are?
