Upgrade for Marriott

Here's an upgrade to the last post on free Marriott stays.  If you can spend $2,000 now instead of $1,000 it's that much better:

Free Hotel Stay's at the Marriott Hotel. What's not to like?

50,000 Bonus Points worth Multiple Hotel Stays (Up to 8 Free Nights)

Marriott Rewards® Premier Credit CardThe Marriott Rewards Premier Credit Card is currently offering 50,000 bonus points after spending just $1,000 in the first 3 months of Card ownership.  Unlike other cards on this list, you’re not going to want to convert those points to gift cards, because you’ll lose a lot in translation.  Marriott rewards points are best used to stay at Marriott hotels, and 50,000 points almost good enough for a one night stay at any Ritz Carlton hotel in the WORLD.  If one night of luxury isn’t your thing, you can use the 50,000 points to stay at a Category 1 hotel for a week!

In addition to the 50,000 bonus points, new cardmembers also receive a free night’s stay at any category 1-4 hotel.  That means up to 8 free nights; which is quite the sign-up reward these days.  The $85 annual fee is waived for all first year cardholders.
