Here is a question from one of our readers.<\/p>\n

“Now show me where to sign up to get free hotel nights… If I don’t need the flyer miles.”<\/p>\n

This friend is obviously a pilot as he can fly for free everywhere. Lucky for him he doesn’t have to search for ways to accumulate miles.\u00a0 The rest of us are out looking for both hotel points and miles so we can fly and stay for virtually free.\u00a0 Hotel points usually don’t come in huge bonuses, but they can accumulate much faster as they usually will give you 6-9 miles per dollar spent instead of getting 1 mile per dollar spent.\u00a0 Marriott, Hilton, and Starwood are three of the best hotel chains.<\/p>\n

Hotel points can be spent in varying increments.\u00a0 More affordable hotels will offer you hotels for less points than a more expensive hotel might require.\u00a0 For example: You might only spend 7500 HHonors points for a Hampton Inn, where you might spend up to 50,000+ HHonors points for a Chateau.\u00a0 Everyone uses them differently, I personally don’t mind a more efficient use of my points by using the smaller hotels rather than the thrones.<\/p>\n

Currently we have a couple of offers for credit cards that can offer you points for your hotel stays.<\/p>\n
