Pro Tips for Booking
Use Marriott.com and Hilton.com directly to access member rates and package deals. Filter by "loyalty members" rates—they often undercut OTA (online travel agency) pricing by 10–20%. Book midweek (Tuesday–Thursday) for cheaper rates than weekends. Always confirm free breakfast is included; some properties tack it on.
