Save up to 25% at five of Marriott's Canadian mountain resorts

 

Marriott has a lot of different discount offers and codes out in the market that provide various savings at their locations in Canada and around the globe. Many provide discounts in the range of 15 to 25% and this offer is at the level of up to 25% off. When using promo code D3Q you'll get up to 25% off stays of three nights or more at the any one of the following five Marriott hotels:

• The Westin Resort & Spa, Whistler
• Delta Hotels Whistler Village Suites
• Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, Autograph Collection
• The Westin Trillium House, Blue Mountain
• Le Westin Resort & Spa, Tremblant, Quebec

Here's the D3Q rate in action at the Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, Autograph Collection

 And the regular rate for the same stay is $278 per night, so this code does provide a decent saving. However you'll note one other offer in there that is potentially better. For $278 a night you can get a $100 per night credit which can be used for food or for the famous Nordic Spa (which costs $99 per person to enter) so it would cover one person at least per day. So the choice would be yours - don't need the credit go for the D3Q rate, if you know you'll use the $100 per night credit go for that rate!

Amazing award night redemption opportunity at the new Radisson Blu Toronto Downtown (Book by October 25)

 

Earlier this week we let you know that the first Radisson Blu Hotel in Canada opened up its doors in Toronto.  At that time award nights were pricing out the regular price of 44,000 points per night but now Radisson Rewards has implemented a new hotel discount on award nights for this location! 

Radisson Blu Toronto 2 Queen Room

This offer entitled "New Hotel Award night " is 25% off the regular rate of 44,000 points which means award nights are pricing out at 33,000 points for standard rooms. But it doesn't stop there. I reached out to Radisson to see if you can also take advantage of the additional 25% rebate that Radisson Rewards is offering on all award nights right now and they have confirmed to Rewards Canada that indeed you will also receive the rebate of 25% as long as you are registered for that offer and meet the requirements of the promotion. That is, book by October 25 for award night stays until December 20, 2020. And again it doesn't stop there! Radisson Rewards also has their current systemwide bonus points promotion of 5,000 bonus per stay and if you recall this bonus points promo counts on award night stays as well!
