Redeeming points for free hotel stays<\/a> is a great way to save money on your travels. But what’s even better is maximizing your redemptions so that you get an award night for no points at all.<\/p>\n

It sounds too good to be true, but it’s not. Several major hotel chains provide opportunities to pick up the fourth or fifth night free<\/a> on award stays. You just have to know how to book them.<\/p>\n

Getting a free night on longer award stays<\/h2>\n

Three major hotel programs offer a free night on longer award stays:<\/p>\n

Simply put, when you redeem your points for four or five consecutive nights at one hotel, you’ll get a free night.<\/p>\n

The terms of the benefit vary from one program to the next. However, in general, to get the free night, you must stay at one hotel the entire time and pay entirely with points \u2014 you do not get this benefit when redeeming free night certificates<\/a> or points-and-cash awards. On the bright side, the discount is automatic, so there’s no need to involve an agent or deal with rebates.<\/p>\n

Marriott Bonvoy<\/h3>\n

With Marriott Bonvoy, you’ll get a fifth night free for every four consecutive nights you book with points. The benefit is available to all members and applies to all Bonvoy properties. Even better, the benefit applies to every fifth night, with no limit to the number of free nights.<\/p>\n
