How does the Marriott Bonvoy 5th night free offer work?

When you book 5 consecutive nights at the same Marriott hotel using only your Marriott Bonvoy points, the 5th night is automatically free. This 20% savings applies to all members, regardless of their status, at all 8,000+ Marriott hotels worldwide.

Can you combine free night certificates with this promotion?

No, all 5 nights must be paid entirely with Marriott Bonvoy points to benefit from the 5th night free. However, you can make a separate reservation to add a 6th night with a certificate and request that the hotel combine your reservations at check-in.

How many Marriott Bonvoy points are needed to take advantage of this offer?

The number of points varies depending on the hotel chosen: expect a minimum of 20,000 points for 5 nights at a hotel in the 5,000 points per night category. With the 50,000-point standard welcome bonus from the Marriott Bonvoy® American Express®* Card, you can get 5 nights at a hotel costing up to 12,500 points per night.

Is the 5th night free promotion available at all Marriott hotels?

Yes, unlike the previous program, all Marriott Bonvoy hotels are eligible for this offer, including luxury properties such as Ritz-Carlton and St. Regis. The important thing is to book 5 consecutive nights at the same property with your points.

How to maximize Marriott Bonvoy points accumulation in Canada?

Canadians can maximize their Marriott Bonvoy points as a couple with the welcome offers from American Express Marriott Bonvoy cards. The Cobalt Card from American Express also allows you to transfer Membership Rewards points to Marriott at a 5:6 ratio, offering the equivalent of 6 Marriott points per dollar spent on groceries and restaurants.
