In a Nutshell

Sweet Spot Rewards is a promotion for Choice Privileges members that provides them with discounted nights at Choice hotels at specific times.The significance of this promotion is dependent on your schedule and plans. If you’ve already booked a trip to one of the promo destinations, it’s worth going back and making changes. Similarly, if you intend to visit these locations, this offer may be especially appealing. Some of the featured properties appear to be excellent choices and may be worth booking.

One important feature to highlight is the ability to transfer Citi ThankYou points, which offers an excellent 1:2 ratio, especially for those who have specific Citi credit cards. If you have enough ThankYou points and your travel dates and times are compatible, this is a fantastic deal. Furthermore, you can transfer American Express Membership Rewards points or Capital One miles to Choice at a 1:1 ratio.

Keep in mind, however, that availability of rooms at the promotion point levels is limited. Choice Hotels reserves the right to change the reward levels or participating properties at any time. So, while it offers exciting opportunities, it is critical to remain adaptable and aware of potential changes.
