This article was excellent reading, especially 3/4 way down where there were links to all the 5000, and 10,000 points hotels. Has there been an similar articles written with links to the other hotel programs?
If anyone has found good value using these hotel reward programs in Paris please recommend.
I haven’t done other roundups that are specifically applicable to Paris, but the other programs that sell points consistently are SPG and Hyatt.
It’s hard to advise generally if it’s worth it as hotel preferences vary between individuals greatly (i.e. desire to buy a room at different hotels, in different parts of the city, for different prices) and availability varies across dates. You’ll have to run the numbers and check availability for your dates vs cost in cash and points to see.
