Weekly Points Deals: Top 10 Marriott-branded Hotels & Resorts (MRH)

Hi Bonvoyagers!

This week I look for points deals at the Marriott Hotels & Resorts (MHR) brand of Marriott hotels. With 594 hotels, MHR is the largest Premium brand and has the third-highest rating of any Premium brand with 4.2 stars. In the past, I’ve also written about the highest-rated Premium brand, the Autograph Collection.

As many of you know from my earlier posts, the average cents per point at Luxury properties is 0.8¢. However, looking at the latest rates for all MHR properties, I found the average $$ per point is 0.7¢, 13% less than the Luxury average.

Surprisingly, after looking at 594 hotels, there are only a few MHR deals I’d recommend you consider. Most MHR properties are simply not worth your hard-earned points. That said I found a few great deals so let’s jump in!

Remember, if you see a rate you like, book now because rates change frequently, and you can always cancel for free!
