BETHESDA, Md., April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Marriott Rewards is announcing an industry-first member enhancement, Elite Rollover Nights. Members who exceed the minimum number of elite nights needed to renew or achieve elite status may now roll over the extra nights into 2010. Members need not do anything. Extra nights at the end of 2009 will automatically be transferred into the member's 2010 account.
Elite night status may be earned by staying at any of Marriott Rewards participating hotel, participating in Marriott Rewards promotions or by signing up for one of Marriott Rewards Visa cards.
Marriott Rewards has three Elite levels - Silver (requires 10 stays per year), Gold (requires 50 stays per year) and Platinum (requires 75 stays per year). Elite level membership has many benefits including bonus points, elite specials, dedicated elite reservation line, priority late checkout, weekend discounts and discounts in the retail shops.
