I will advise you to be careful of Marriot Bonvoy. A booking i did for 8000 points a few weeks back is now needs 70k+ points.

The revenue rate is just INR 7K

So miles get 0.10 rs value. Sorry, as told chose a week duration and not 1 day

@RewardsAlert @Wealth is my birth right!

No point in transferring to mariott.
Whichever partner has instant transfer enabled for Traveledge, please refrain from transferring there in advance.
For others, like ITC, Accor, we may consider.

Yup it's ridiculous. They should've stuck with the old framework with their category-based pricing or at least have some reasonable caps.

How many days have you selected? Points are shown for complete stay but revenue rate is per night.
See attached for 3 nights

I guess Accor is good for domestic as well as international usage.
ITC good for domestic usage.
Marriot is good for international destinations such as Dubai, Europian contries etc.
More experienced members can share their views.

I find this to be quite accurate

I recently booked & upgrade to the next category at Marriot Coimbatore for 8400 points where the revenue rate was 7768 INR, I used MR points for transfer so seems a good rate for me.

So hilton/radisson/hyatt will get the business. Such ridiculous changes in points demand do not speak highly of the brand.
