Hotel Points Earn Rate Calculator

The amount of points you get from staying at a hotel depends on the room rate excluding taxes and other fees. For example, a base (non-elite) member of Marriott would earn 10 points per dollar on their room rate, so a $100 hotel rate would net them 1,000 points. Whereas a top tier Marriott Elite member would get 2,000 points from that same stay (15x points plus 500 points as a welcome amenity).

	Base Status	Tier 2	Tier 3	Top Status
Marriott	10x	12x	12.5x	15x +500 points
Hilton	10x	11.5x	12.5x + 1,000 points	15x + 1,000 points
IHG	10x	11x + 300 points	15x + 500 points	20x +500 points
Hyatt	5x	5.5x	6x	6.5x
Wyndham	10x or 1,000 points (whichever is higher)	10x or 1,000 points (whichever is higher)	10x or 1,000 points (whichever is higher)	10x or 1,000 points (whichever is higher)

Welcome Amenity: Many hotels offer a welcome amenity (i.e. choice of points, drink, or breakfast). This chart assumes that you take the points. For IHG, the points offered to you depend on the properties, so that is the overall average for each level. For Hilton, Gold Members get 1,000 points at Hilton, Doubletree, Curio, Conrad, Tapestry, and Waldorf Astoria. For Marriott, members earn half the welcome bonus at Aloft, Element or Fourpoints hotels.

Credit Card Status: Many credit cards give you status in hotels. If you see an N/A, that means the credit card gives you status higher than that (i.e. IHG gives you Platinum Elite/Tier 3 status).
