Marriott’s acquisition of Africa’s largest hotel chain will soon offer Marriott Rewards members loyalty benefits. 26 South Africa Protea Hotels join Marriott Rewards Feb 23, 2015 and nearly 100 more hotels will become part of Marriott Rewards in late 2015.
The hotel category these hotels have been placed in for their initial entry is great news. The highest hotel category is 5 or 25,000 points per night with 5th night free.
Cape Town South Africa March 9-11, 2015
African Pride 15 on Orange Hotel = $283.60 per night March 9-11, 2015 or 25,000 points per night.
Protea Hotel North Wharf Waterfront = $216.02 or 20,000 points per night.
Protea Hotel Fire & Ice Cape Town = $178.74 per night or 25,000 points per night.
Room rates are quite high for these Marriott Rewards category levels. This looks like South Africa is a great destination with Marriott Rewards points for 2015.
