New Choice Hotels sweet spots: Booking suites at Radisson properties

In late July 2023, Choice Hotels finished incorporating former Radisson Rewards Americas properties into their portfolio which made it possible to book those Radisson properties with Choice Privileges points.

When doing some research, we found that the award pricing had converted over on a favorable basis overall. There was another benefit to this change too. Choice Privileges makes numerous room types bookable for the same number of points which often includes suites. That approach has continued with Radisson, so there are many Radisson brands where you can now book suites for a standard number of points.

I went through trying to identify as many properties as possible where you could book these suites; I’ve therefore produced the list below to display what I found. The list isn’t comprehensive; Radisson Rewards Americas had 600+ properties and so I haven’t been able to manually check every single hotel that’s part of their portfolio. However, I did check 100+ hotels during my searches and there are 60+ properties listed below.

It might also be the case that some of the hotels I checked don’t appear on this list as there weren’t any suites bookable during the dates I searched, but that they do have suites available at other times. If you find any others, please let us know in the comments below and I’ll get them added to the list.

I should also note that just because suites are bookable with points, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it’ll provide you with great value. For the most part I didn’t check any cash rates, so it might be that paid stays would represent better value for a suite than redeeming points. Some of the suites are also more like junior suites rather than 1 bedroom suites with a door separating the bedroom and living room.

Here’s a list of Radisson properties that have suites bookable with Choice Privileges points broken down by brand. The name of each property links to the property on Choice’s website:

Independent

USA

  • Treasure Island, Las Vegas
    • When doing my initial research a couple of weeks ago, I saw a 1 king bed suite with a whirlpool bookable with points. When checking again today I didn’t see that bookable with points on the couple of dates I checked, so it might be that Choice has pulled that availability, or perhaps that room type is only bookable with points on certain dates.
