For those that stayed 50 eligible nights at a SPG hotel last year, you are eligible to receive an extra perk in addition to your normal Platinum benefits. You have the option to select one of the benefits below, but you must do so by this Friday! You can select your extra benefit option here.
- 10 Suite Night Awards
- (4) free rides with Uber up to $25 each
- Gift Gold status to friend or family member
- TSA PreCheck (Starwood covers the fee) – worth $85
- $100 Amazon gift card
- Donate $100 to UNICEF (Checkout for Children)
I personally think the 10 upgraded suite nights are the best perks, but I know many SPG members complained that they never had the opportunity to use them or that they were not available. These suite nights allow you to request a suite prior to your stay with the hopes that it is confirmed 5 nights prior to arrival.
If you have experienced your Suite Night Awards going to waste every year. My two personal recommendations are giving SPG gold status to a friend (a very nice gesture) or the $100 Amazon gift card.

I only get the Platinum 50 night suite night upgrades confirmed while traveling abroad. I’ve stayed in some beautiful rooms in Spain, France and Austria – rooms that I never would have paid for myself. I have yet to get a domestic upgrade to clear. I usually “waste” 5 or 6 a year. That being said, I still chose the upgrade option – to me the value just isn’t there on the other items. I would rather use 4 upgrades and waste six than get an Amazon gift card – those upgrades are worth more than $100 to me.
Hi I just came across your blog as I was researching the best points Promo’s available for Hotel Branded credit cards. It seems to be a very informative site. I would imagine all the bloggers that you have make up a great team.
I like the 50 night offer and if anyone is so inclined to Gift Gold status to me i would be up to it, just saying.
Anyway a good read I will be back.
