Anyone ever figured out how many points/night you’re earning between SPG and Marriott? Try to be loyal, but it can be hard getting the corp rate at SPG.

This summer 17 nights/855 average points/night SPG vs. 20 nights/3210 average points per night Marriott. So, I’m earning a Cat 7 Marriott night every 9-11 days vs. a Cat 6 SPG night every 23-29 days. SPG Gold and Marriott Silver if it matters. Always thought SPG was more generous, but reality seems a lot different, at least for me!

On SPG you get 500 / night just for green choice (- departure night), so 855 is low.

500 for GC per night except for night before checkout.

Intriguing. What are the rates you're looking at?

You must be staying at a four points to get that shitty of SPG earnings. I'm getting over 3k points/night with them

$170-225 SPG and $195 Marriott

I think it's 500 total for Green Choice BCG1. Last week Sheraton 5 nights about 3100 points (615/night). Similar last summer in NYC 600-700/night not including an additional 3000/stay the Sheraton Midtown had at the time.

OP, how did u get 3210pts/nt at $195/nt with Marriott as a Silver? Doesn't compute

@S& 10 pts/$ + 20% elite bonus. Plus 2000 summer promo per stay (maxed out at 10k) and 7,500 "extra" over my last two stays I'm not sure of the source (maybe additional summer promo bonus).
