Stay Bonuses for New Hotel Brands

 

It seems that various hotel programs are coming out with a new brand to try to appeal to a niche market. Currently 2 hotel programs are offering some bonus points for staying at their new brand.

Their new and 10th brand is called Tribute Portfolio and it seems they are going for the boutique hotel/resort experience. Their first property is Royal Palm South Beach Miami and they are planning to add the brand hotel in Asheville, NC; Nashville, TN; Charleston, and SC; Savannah, GA to start.

They are currently offering bonus points if you stay at their newest brand. You must first register here in order to receive 2,000 points per stay up to 10k points for stays until July 15, 2015.

Looking at the hotel prices, it is a pretty expensive place to stay and as a category 6 hotel, you will have to shell out 20k points per night. Also the resort charges a $30 per day resort fee which will include drink vouchers, bottled water and fruit, and 2 beach chairs and towel service for the beach.

There are other more reasonable places to stay in South Beach.

Hilton

Their new and one of 13 brands called Curio is also a boutique hotel collection and they currently have locations in 11 places. They are currently offering 1,500 bonus points per night up to four nights when you register and stay at a Curio hotel by July 31, 2015. The max bonus points is 6,000 points. Any one that knows about the Hilton rewards program knows that this amount of points is nothing compared to the redemption amount so there is no need to go out of your way to stay at these properties for the bonus points.

The properties for this brand are:
