Quick Thoughts
This promotion has the potential to be very rewarding. When checking a random weekend in Washington D.C. in October, The Graham Georgetown is offering 26,000 bonus LifeMiles per night, albeit with a $799 + tax room rate.
A more rewarding option on a per dollar basis would be the Capitol Hill Hotel which is giving 18,600 bonus miles on a $409 + tax room rate.
There are a few key things to be aware with this promotion. You have to book by May 12, although it’s valid on stays through December 31, 2023. Seeing as it’s booked via Rocketmiles, you won’t earn points or elite night credits, nor will you receive elite status benefits. You’ll also be missing out on earning cashback/rewards through a shopping portal. The bonus LifeMiles you earn might end up more than offsetting that, especially if the hotel(s) you book include things like free breakfast for all guests regardless of status.
Wow so I’m looking today the last day of the promo and it seems the point rates for rocketmiles have been nerfed for everything (even without the 2x promo). Is this just a round about way for them to end the promo without properly ending it?
What’s worse is I had actually booked from them and they didn’t fulfill my reservation. Now I’m returning and all the points back on every hotel have been nerfed.
Seem you can actually find some really interesting offers. For example the Albergo Marisa at Termini Central Station in Rome. From July 20th for a two night stay you ll pay 777 Euro per night which is a bit more than on booking.com. but for the two nights you ll get 95.800 Lifemiles… so around 0,008 EuroCent.
I’m having issues with this:
1) Every booking I check I get a popup that says my search parameters don’t fit to qualify for the bonus. I’m in the date range & can’t find any language that limits this by hotel opt-out or geographic regions.
2) Not seeing any great point values even at 2X
3) It looks like this is operated by Rocketmiles. I just had some failed bookings with them (but they did charge my card). They seem to be having some issues.
I had the same exact issue. My card was charged but they didn’t secure the booking. Apparently it’s going to drop off my card but given the amount of research I did to come to the hotel I decided on it’s a huge disappointment.
The hotels advertised say”2x bonus applied.” Does this mean the quoted mileage earnings are inclusive of the 2x bonus?
Yes
