PointSavers are one of the few Marriott Rewards hotel discounts besides 5th fight free for award stays on points. PointSavers reduce the cost of an award night by one category level. This means a category 6 hotel normally 30,000 points per night will be 25,000 points per night with PointSavers. The 5th night free discount applies to PointSavers stays too.
The problem is so few hotels globally are listed with PointSavers dates these past few years. And Ritz-Carlton hotels offering PointSavers are not even listed on the website. The webpage asks members to call an 800 number to request availability. I have tried that before and the Marriott agents are not too helpful in finding any Ritz-Carlton with PointSavers dates. The impression I get from agents when requesting to know if any Ritz-Carlton hotels offer PointSavers is the idea of going to any Ritz-Carlton hotel for a stay simply to take advantage of a discount award rate seems like an alien concept.

Marriott Rewards PointSavers limited to 20 hotels worldwide in a global chain of 3,400 hotels is a poorly filled hotel award type.
Hilton HHonors, Starwood Preferred Guest, IHG Priority Club and Club Carlson all offer some type of points and cash award for hotel rate savings. These offers are available at hundreds of hotels in each hotel chain.
Marriott Rewards PointSavers are an underutilized hotel discount award offer for a chain with thousands of hotels.
