This flexibility allows travellers to choose accommodations that suit their style and budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In large chains, loyalty programs often offer options to book free nights using your points, sometimes even with promotions that include a free night after a certain number of nights booked. <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/strategy\/independent-hotels\/\">Independent hotels<\/a>, although not affiliated to chains, are sometimes accessible via platforms such as <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/news\/programs\/aeroplan-hotelsavers-points\/\">HotelSavers Aeroplan<\/a> or third-party booking portals associated with points programs such as <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/tutorials\/expedia-for-td-guide\/\">Expedia for TD<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have enough points to cover the cost of an entire reservation, several programs offer hybrid solutions combining points and cash. This allows you to use your points even with a limited balance. In addition, co-branded credit cards linked to hotel chains can help you quickly accumulate the points you need for your stays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before redeeming your points, it&#8217;s a good idea to assess their <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/points-miles-value-canada\/\">value<\/a>. If cash rates are very low for a given night, it may be <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/?p=251361\">preferable to save your points<\/a> for future use, when their <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/news\/points-value-target\/\">value<\/a> will be greater.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"component component__deferred_contents wp-block-milesgutenberg-deferred-contents\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"0,191085\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-impact-of-exchange-rates-on-the-valuation-of-points\">The impact of exchange rates on the valuation of points<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An often underestimated factor in using points for accommodation is the effect of the exchange rate, especially for Canadians traveling abroad. With the possibility of a drop in the value of the Canadian dollar, it&#8217;s even more important to take points into consideration to <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/save-travel-flights-hotels\/\">save money when traveling<\/a>, especially if you already have your plane tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loyalty programs such as Hilton Honors and Marriott Bonvoy generally determine the points cost of hotel nights based on hotel category, local price and\/or USD. This means that&nbsp;:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"component component__list\"><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If the Canadian dollar is weak against the U.S. dollar or local currency, the cash cost of a hotel room increases for a Canadian traveler.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"component component__list\"><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>On the other hand, the number of points required for a free night does not necessarily follow this increase.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Suppose a hotel costs&nbsp;:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"component component__list\"><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>US$200 per night and requires 20,000 Marriott Bonvoy points.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>with an exchange rate of US$1 = C$1.35, this works out at C$270 per night and a valuation of 1.35\u00a2 per point.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If the Canadian dollar falls to US$1 = C$1.50, the same night will cost C$300, but will probably remain at 20,000 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that the value of the points increases, since the value obtained in exchange for the points is more advantageous with our Canadian dollars, i.e. 1.5\u00a2 per point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using hotel points can be an excellent option. This way, you avoid (or minimize) the negative effects of the CAD\/USD conversion on your hotel expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"component component__deferred_contents wp-block-milesgutenberg-deferred-contents\">\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tdata-template='s-h'\n\t\t\t\tdata-post_type='post'\n\t\t\t\tdata-per_page='4'\n\t\t\t\tclass='deferred_container--preload container_post container_template--s-h container_count--1'\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-tag=\"post_id\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-post_ids=\"0,293039\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t<article class=\"post-preview\">\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-thumbnail\">\n\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-image\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"post-preview-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"simmer-bar-group\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"shimmer shimmer-bar\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-programs-to-save-on-hotel-nights\">Programs to Save On Hotel Nights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Canada, Marriott Bonvoy is the most advantageous loyalty program for earning free hotel nights at chain properties.

Milesopedia gives a value of 2\u00a2 per Aeroplan point when redeemed for flights, whereas it&#8217;s more realistic to get between 1\u00a2 and 1.5\u00a2 for hotel bookings.<\/p>\n\n\n<aside
