It's that time of the year when people are hitting the road for summer vacations, from trips with the whole family to weekend getaways with friends, and maybe even a business trip or two. Whether you're traveling on the road or in the sky, the best trips always need a little flexibility, and that's where Best Western's award-winning loyalty program, Best Western Rewards®, comes in handy.
And right now, there's an added incentive: members can earn bonus points on every qualified stay through Sept. 7, 2026 — plus a chance to win 250,000 points in the Best Western Rewards Summer Sweepstakes.
To make it all the sweeter, award redemptions start as low as 5,000 points per night (you read that right: 5,000!) across more than 4,300 hotels worldwide. With the "Pay with Points' feature, you can even use a mix of cash and your points balance to book a room, adding even more flexibility to how you redeem.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
