From adding more upscale hotel offerings to
its family of participating hotel brands to offering two, new
co-branded credit cards, the award-winning loyalty program
continues to expand member opportunities and benefits
ROCKVILLE, Md., Sept. 26,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Choice Hotels International, Inc.
(NYSE: CHH) announced that Choice Privileges now offers food
ordering and delivery through a collaboration with Grubhub, a
leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery platform, to
guests during stays at 500 participating Choice Hotels. As part of
a continued reinvigoration of the award-winning loyalty program,
Choice Privileges is expanding rewards and opportunities for guests
during their travels.
Guests at participating midscale and extended stay Choice hotels
brands, including Everhome Suites, Clarion Pointe, Comfort Inn,
Mainstay Suites and Sleep Inn properties, will be able to access
Grubhub's network of more than 365,000 restaurants and convenience
offerings. To order, guests will be able to access a branded
ordering and delivery experience within the Grubhub app while on
the hotel's property and are able to receive two free months of
Grubhub+, Grubhub's loyalty program that provides diners access to
unlimited $0 delivery on orders of
$12+.
"We are always looking to expand opportunities for Choice
Privileges members, and we strive to focus on benefits that will
add additional value for our members," said Julie Purser, vice president, loyalty strategy
and membership rewards, Choice Hotels. "Offering $0 delivery fees with Grubhub enriches the guest
experience at these participating hotels as it provides logistical
and financial ease to guests seeking food delivery."
"Whether guests are traveling for work, relaxation or fun, we
want to be their go-to delivery provider that keeps them fed no
matter where they are," said Rob
DelaCruz, vice president and general manager of Onsite
Hospitality at Grubhub. "We're excited to offer a convenient and
seamless ordering and delivery experience for Choice Hotel guests
that allows them to explore the flavors of local communities across
the country."
This expansion of Choice Privileges member benefits follows
several other recent efforts to reinvigorate the loyalty program.
Earlier this year, Choice launched two co-brand credit cards – the
Choice Privileges Select Mastercard and Choice Privileges
Mastercard – to offer travelers more ways to accelerate the amount
of Choice Privileges points they earn while staying at
participating Choice Hotels and on everyday spending like gas,
groceries and home goods.
In July, Choice Hotels completed the successful integration of
the Radisson Rewards Americas loyalty program into the Choice
Privileges program. This enables the nearly 60 million Choice
Privileges members to earn and redeem points at over 7,000
Choice-branded hotels across a diverse portfolio of brands.
The integration of Radisson Rewards Americas into Choice
Privileges expanded member benefits to include complimentary
breakfast for members with Diamond status at Radisson Blu,
Radisson, Radisson RED, and Park
Plaza hotels. Additional member benefits include:
- The expanded types of hotels Choice Privileges members can earn
