Are you close to earning Marriott Platinum or Titanium status? Many people are very close, even if they didn’t stay in Marriott hotels at all this year because Marriott added bonus elite nights to many accounts. I covered this topic in-depth previously here: Marriott Bonvoy: 7 nights to Platinum. What to do?
Now, there’s an opportunity to earn Marriott elite nights cheaply through mattress running (checking into hotels to earn elite nights even if you don’t want to stay). To get in on this opportunity, you have to be in the right place at the right time, and you must book your stay by October 15th December 14th.
The key to earning Marriott elite nights cheaply right now is by taking advantage of a new Marriott promotion: Free nights for “up to 33% less.” Through the end of November, most Marriott hotels are priced off-peak for award stays — as long as you book by Thursday October 15th December 14th. This means that category 1 hotels which cost 7,500 points standard will cost only 5,000 points per night. And, of course, you can take advantage of Marriott’s 5th Night Free Awards (Stay for 5, Pay for 4). In other words, those with access to a category 1 Marriott, can book 5 nights for only 20,000 points for a total cost of only 4,000 points per night. Some have found category 1 properties for even less when available with PointSaver rates. When a category 1 property is available off-peak and PointSaver, it costs only 4,000 points per night or 3,200 points per night on a 5 night award stay.
Finding Category 1
There are currently 43 category 1 Marriott hotels in the United States with a whopping 18 in Texas:
To find category 1 hotels, go to Marriott’s Hotel Search page and then filter to category 1.
Booking Category 1
Once you find a category 1 hotel of interest, the next trick is to find free night availability. One option is to do a flexible date search like this:
The problem with this approach is that Marriott’s technology often fails. Often, the above search incorrectly results in “Not Available for Check-in” as shown below:
I believe that Marriott’s website frequently gets confused by its own browser cookies. After switching to a fresh browser, I got correct results by running the exact same search as above:
Book a 5 night stay (or a multiple of 5 nights) in order to get the best value thanks to get 1 out of every 5 nights for free:
Is mattress running Marriott worth it?
Don’t even consider doing this to earn Marriott Silver or Gold status. Platinum or Titanium status is where the action is at. Here’s a summary of the key benefits you get with each status level:
Elite Status Level | Requirements Per Year | Key Benefits |
---|---|---|
Silver Elite | 10 Nights | Late checkout, 10% point bonus |
Gold Elite | 25 Nights | 2PM late checkout; 25% point bonus; welcome gift (points only); room upgrade; enhanced internet |
Platinum Elite | 50 Nights | 4PM late checkout; 50% point bonus; welcome gift w/ breakfast option; room upgrade includes suites; lounge access; Choice benefit (such as 5 nightly upgrade awards) when you achieve 50 nights. |
Titanium Elite | 75 Nights | All of the above, plus: 75% point bonus; United Silver Premier status via RewardsPlus; Ritz-Carlton suite upgrades; Additional Choice Benefit (such as 40K free night certificate) when you achieve 75 nights. |
Ambassador Elite | 100 Nights + $23K Spend | All of the above, plus: Ambassador Service (dedicated Marriott agent); Your24 (Choose the 24 hours of your stay. For example, choose to check in at 9am after an overnight flight). |
50 Night Platinum status means getting free breakfast at most Marriott hotels, a chance of a suite upgrade, and more. 75 Night Titanium status adds free United Silver status, a Choice Benefit of a free 40K night, and more. For those within 5 days of Platinum or Titanium status, I think that most people will find that it’s well worth spending 20K points to get to that level. Even if you’re 10 nights away from the next level, it may be worth pursuing, especially if you think you’re likely to stay at some nice Marriott hotels next year where you’d get good benefits from your status. Unfortunately, not all Marriott brands offer elite perks so it’s a good idea to do your homework ahead of time. For example, I’ll frequently Google a hotel along with the words “platinum status” to see what others have reported as perks for their stays.
Up to 30 additional nights
Having a Marriott consumer credit card gives you 15 elite nights each year automatically. Similarly, having a Marriott business credit card gives you another 15 elite nights each year. In other words, you can get 30 elite nights each year just by having two credit cards. Note though that having more than one consumer card or more than one business card does not help.
Important: Marriott imposes strict rules as to who is eligible for each credit card. Before applying for a new card, please see this post: Are you eligible for a new Marriott card?

Mattress Running Marriott Q&A
Q: What are elite nights?
With many hotel chains, you can earn elite status by acquiring a number of elite qualifying nights each year. For example, Marriott requires earning 50 elite nights per year to achieve Platinum Elite status, or 75 elite nights for Titanium status. Once you reach a status level, status last for the remainder of the current calendar year, all of the next year, and through February of the year after that.
Q: When mattress running Marriott, do I have to physically go to the hotel to check in?
Usually yes. Most mattress runs involve physically checking into the hotel. That said, if you’re lucky you may be able to find a hotel manager willing to process your check-in remotely. If so, you may have to fax them a photo of your ID and credit card.
Q: Should I speak with a hotel manager about my plans?
Yes! If you don’t speak with a hotel manager, they may find your room unoccupied and check you out early. If you’re not planning to actually stay at the hotel, then I think it’s critical to explain to hotel management what you want to accomplish and why.
Q: Do I have to physically go to the hotel to check out?
No. You can check out with the Marriott app or you can simply ignore it and the hotel will automatically check you out.
Q: Does the free night on 5th Night Free awards earn an elite night?
Yes.
Q: Do I have to book directly with Marriott to earn elite nights?
Usually, yes. Stays booked through 3rd party online travel agencies (Expedia, Hotels.com, etc.) or through rewards portals (such as Chase Ultimate Rewards) do not earn points or elite nights for those stays. There are exceptions. For example, stays booked through Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts do earn points and elite nights.
