Radisson has a MegaPoints hotel promotion for 10,000 bonus points per night in at least six hotels in the USA. I posted about the MegaPoints offer for Radisson Martinique in New York two weeks ago and MommyPoints blog posted a couple of days ago showing where this 10,000 points per night offer is available at five other hotels. Possibly there are more participating hotels, but there is no general promotion page I have seen with a hotel list.
New York City
Radisson Martinique on Broadway
Radisson JFK Airport
Orlando
Radisson Resort Orlando – Celebration
Radisson Hotel Orlando – Lake Buena Vista
Radisson Hotel Orlando – UCF Area
San Francisco
Radisson Hotel Fisherman’s Wharf
The general deal is the MegaPoints rate is $20 higher than Best Available Rate. Radisson runs promotions for up to 25% off Advance Purchase nonrefundable rates which can mean a lower rate if you are willing to book a nonrefundable rate. AAA rates are usually 10% off and generally have same cancellation policy as the Best Available Rate
Club Carlson points are worth about $5 per 1,000 points or up to double that value if you have a Club Carlson Visa card and book a two night award stay on points receiving the one night free benefit.
In my opinion, the ability to buy 10,000 bonus points per night for a $20 to $40 premium is a good way to earn Club Carlson points.
Here is my review of Radisson Fisherman’s Wharf in December 2013.
