Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) AAA Upgrade

[mtblujeans]

I just discovered that you can upgrade your Starwood Preferred Guest card if you have a AAA card.

Call 1-866-782-7737 to add your AAA number to your SPG account.

CAA/AAA Preferred Plus® advantages are:

- Room discount rate
- Instant upgrade to a Preferred room at check-in (Subject to availability)
- 4pm late checkout (Subject to availability)
- 1,000 Starpoints(SM) on your first three stays (through June 1, 2005)
- Two Starpoints for every dollar spent
- Advance notice of hotels offers and more

I am new to the SPG program so this was news to me.

I have a SPG card with lots of points and was wondering if anyone knows if there are participating hotels around the Savannah, GA area.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, there's The Westin Savannah Harbor Resort and Spa . This hotel was featured on the Travel Channel's "Great Hotels" series with Samantha Brown. It's right on the water and the hotel's resort fee includes water taxi service to Savannah's historic district. There's also golfing nearby, as well as a Grenbrier Spa on property.

The hotel is listed as SPG Category 4 , which means that it will cost 10,000 Starpoints for each free night.

That's a good question.....You must call the 800 number listed above to add your AAA card to your account before making reservations. When you add your AAA card number to your account, you get the discount when you make your reservation, as opposed to finding out if you can get a discount later ie. at check-in.
