Since October 2022, Aeroplan has offered HotelSavers to its members, a platform that lets you book hotels with points at exclusive rates. Until December 31, 2026, Aeroplan credit cardholders can enjoy a 4th hotel night free on stays booked with points.
In other words, if you book four nights in points, you will be charged for only three nights. Here are the main details of the offer:
This offer is highly competitive with Marriott Bonvoy, which provides 5 nights for the price of 4 on points stays. However, the HotelSavers offer stands out by crediting back the average nightly points cost from your total reservation, instead of only crediting the lowest-priced night as Marriott Bonvoy does.
Remember, hotels participating in Aeroplan HotelSavers are divided into 8 distinct pricing categories, as shown here:
According to Milesopedia’s valuation, one Aeroplan point is worth about 2 cents, but this drops to 0.8 cents when points are used for hotel reservations. In other words, it’s often more valuable to use your Aeroplan points for flight bookings rather than hotel stays.
You can calculate the value of your Aeroplan points with this promotion to decide if it’s a good use of your points.
For example, this Category 6 hotel in Tulum normally costs 162,000 points or $1,567 CAD for four nights. With the free night, you save 30,375 Aeroplan points (the average price of one night) and pay 121,500 points in total.
This gives you a value of 1.28 cents per Aeroplan point, which is quite good for a hotel booking! While this isn’t as high as the redemption value you can get for flights, it’s still an attractive option for nearly free travel.
While there are many ways to earn Aeroplan points, including through transfer partners, this special offer is reserved exclusively for Aeroplan credit cardholders.
You might not be planning to fly with Air Canada or its partners on your next trip, but you may have a large balance of points from the welcome offer on the American Express® Aeroplan®* Card, for example. As a cardholder, you’ll be able to take advantage of the 4th night free offer and get more value from your Aeroplan points.
The new Aeroplan HotelSavers promotion offers exciting points redemption opportunities for Aeroplan credit cardholders. Those who focus primarily on this loyalty program will be able to obtain a higher redemption value for their points on hotel stays of four nights or more.
