We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Heading east this spring?  Here’s an easy way to save a LOT of money at Starwood hotels!

    Via Points, Miles & Martinis, Starwood is having a fantastic promotion at many of their hotels in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, through June 1, 2017.  You can get up to 2 free nights at participating Starwood hotels just by typing in a promotion code and using a MasterCard!

    Heading to the UK? Stay at 1 of the 9 Participating Starwood Hotels That Are Offering Free Nights for a Stay of 3 Nights or More

    I’ll give you the details of this promotion!

    Easy Way to Get Free Nights

    Link:   Starwood Spring Promotion

    MasterCard cardholders headed to Africa, Europe, or the Middle East this spring can get a nice discount on bookings and stays made by June 1, 2017, at participating Starwood hotels!  There are 3 different ways to save:

    Buy 2 nights, get the 3rd free
    Buy 3 nights, get the 4th free
    Buy 4 Nights, Receive 2 Free Nights Offer

    Here are the details:

    Team member Joseph used a similar Starwood promotion last year in Dubai, and coupled it with the Citi Prestige 4th night free perk.  Because Starwood averaged the savings over a 4-night period (instead of actually charging $0 the 4th night), he was able to get the discounted 4th night for free!  And this promotion is likely similar.

    Joseph Booked 4 Nights in an Apartment at the Sheraton, and Used a Promotion Code and the Citi Prestige 4th Night Free to Reserve the Stay for Nearly 50% Off

    This promotion is a little unclear, though.  With each promotion code, it shows the average cost per night you’ll be charged above the “Reserve” button.  But it does NOT show an average cost per night below the “Reserve” button.

    Mixed Signals! Starwood Averages the Nightly Savings in 1 Place, and Shows 1 Night Free in Another

    Will I Earn Elite Credits on These Stays?

    The terms state you will NOT get additional credits if you check out early.  This implies that you’ll receive elite night credits for these nights.  Which means you’d be able to use this promotion to help you cheaply earn Starwood elite status with the current Starwood elite status challenge!

    And, if you leave the hotel early and do NOT check out, the hotel will likely give you credits for the whole stay.  So even if you’re only planning to stay 2 nights, you can possibly use this promotion to book 3 nights, and get the extra elite credit as long as you don’t check out when you leave early.

    Note:   You will NOT be able to use your AMEX Starwood cards to reserve with this promotion, because they are NOT MasterCard credit cards.

    Bottom Line

    You can get 1 or 2 free nights with Starwood’s new promotion!

    MasterCard cardholders can get this discount on bookings and stays made by June 1, 2017, at participating Starwood hotels in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East.   Just book your hotels through this link, or enter the above promotion codes through the hotel’s website.

    Will you move your hotel stays to Starwood for this promotion?
