YHBU: [translated from German to English by Google Translate] "Choice Privileges made it possible to book Preferred Hotels online three months ago. This made it much easier to reserve Preferred Hotels. With usable point values, this was another great way to redeem Choice points."
"Choice Privileges has now turned the screw. The maximum limit has been raised from 55,000 points to 87,000 points. Not all 55k hotels have been raised to this level, but many have surprisingly been made more expensive."
Points Wire Note:
If you'd rather save your points for flights, you can book many Preferred Hotels & Resorts properties via their Preferred Platinum Partner program to get VIP perks such as a room upgrade (if available), daily breakfast for 2 people, early check-in/late checkout (if available), a $100 property credit, and a welcome amenity.
