Ritz-Carlton launches “double Elite night credits” to its Ritz-Carlton Rewards members

Receive credit for twice the nights when you stay at The Ritz-Carlton

CHEVY CHASE, MD, 2014-6-24 — /Travel PR News/ — There is now a faster way to experience the benefits of Elite status as a Ritz-Carlton Rewards member. In the continued effort to offer Ritz-Carlton Rewards members exceptional experiences, double Elite night credits are a new promotional benefit for 2014. For each night that a member stays at a participating Ritz-Carlton hotel, they will receive credit for two nights, accelerating their achievement of Elite status.

This new benefit supports the hotel company’s efforts to strengthen and differentiate The Ritz-Carlton Rewards program, and offers members an accelerated journey to maintaining their current Elite status or achieving a higher level. This new benefit applies to each stay during 2014, including those that members have already made.

“The Ritz-Carlton is delighted to further enhance the Rewards program and continue to offer our members exclusive benefits,” said Kevin McCarthy, Vice President, The Ritz-Carlton Rewards. “We believe our members will enjoy the many benefits offered with Elite status.”

As the premier luxury brand in the Marriott International portfolio, The Ritz-Carlton Hotels lead the high-end luxury hotel segment by offering a rewards program that enables guests to access benefits at 86 Ritz-Carlton hotels and resorts, plus enjoy the full portfolio of Marriott brands worldwide – more than 4,000 properties.

In order to participate in the offer, guests must be a member of The Ritz-Carlton Rewards at the time of their stay. Stays must be at a participating Ritz-Carlton property, and for each eligible night, members will receive two Elite night credits. Nights spent while redeeming an award are not eligible for Elite night credit. Double Elite night credits are retroactively granted to members for all stays at Ritz-Carlton properties starting on January 1, 2014, and are automatically applied to members’ accounts. To be eligible for retroactive double Elite night credit, guests must have been a Ritz-Carlton Rewards member during that stay in 2014. Nights stayed at a Ritz-Carlton property as a member of the Marriott Rewards program are not eligible for double Elite night credit. Members can review their current status by logging into their account.

Membership is complimentary and guests are invited to enroll by going online at www.ritzcarltonrewards.com or by visiting any Ritz-Carlton hotel front desk.
