Aeroplan has announced its latest feature, HotelSavers, which allows members to book hotels using Aeroplan points at a discount. While it has long been possible to book hotel stays with Aeroplan points, this new feature will make it less costly for members.
With exclusively negotiated rates at over 7,000 hotels belonging to 39 hotel brands across 11 major chains, anyone who wishes to redeem Aeroplan points for hotel stays will get up to a 30% discount compared to the regular Aeroplan redemption rate.
Let’s take a look at this new feature from Aeroplan.
What Is Aeroplan HotelSavers?
HotelSavers is a new feature on Aeroplan’s website that offers members discounts at select hotels when redeeming Aeroplan points. Aeroplan has exclusively negotiated rates with a number of hotels across the world, including luxury, premium, midscale, and economy hotels.
With HotelSavers, Aeroplan members can redeem points at a discount compared to what it would normally cost for a redemption. At launch, HotelSavers rates are available at 39 hotel brands that belong to 11 major chains.
The hotels available with HotelSavers include some well-known properties, including:
- Luxury: Fairmont, Kimpton, Shangri-La, Taj, Small Luxury Hotels of the World, InterContinental, Preferred Hotels & Resorts and others
- Premium: Le Germain, Omni, Noble House Hotels & Resorts, Swissôtel, Crowne Plaza, Outriggers Hotels & Resorts, and others
- Midscale & Economy: Coast Hotels, Holiday Inn, Novotel, Alt Hotels
The cost of booking HotelSavers hotels depends on the category to which the property belongs. Aeroplan has published a chart with eight categories, along with the corresponding range of prices you can expect.
Bookings with HotelSavers start at 10,000 points per night for economy-level hotels. An example of this would be a stay at a Category 1 property.
Premium hotels, such as Category 4 Crowne Plaza hotels, can be booked for 25,000–40,000 points per night.
Luxury hotels in Category 7 can be booked for 55,000–80,000 Aeroplan points.
The top-tier, Category 8 hotels, such as InterContinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa, price out at 75,000–105,000 points per night.
With over 7,000 hotels available at the launch, it shouldn’t be hard to find a HotelSavers rate at most destinations around the world.
