Best Western Rewards doesn’t run a ton of promotions, but more often than not, there's at least something on the table. Right now, you can earn double points on all stays worldwide and earn 2,000 bonus points per qualified stay at Best Western Hotels in the U.S., Canada, or the Caribbean through November 30, 2025.
Here’s everything you need to know to register, qualify, and maximize these offers.

Earn 2,000 Bonus Points on Stays in the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean
The bonus point promotion on select Best Western stays is back. You can earn 2,000 bonus points per stay at a Best Western-branded hotel in the U.S., Canada, or the Caribbean. To participate, you must first register for the promotion, book travel, and complete your stay by November 30, 2025.
You can earn 2,000 bonus points per stay, a maximum of 10 times, for a total of 20,000 bonus points.
If this sounds familiar, that's because it's almost identical to the promotion below, which has an expired booking window. However, that promotion was slightly more lucrative, offering 2,500 bonus points per stay. Still, if you were already planning a trip for this month, it's worth earning a few extra points.

Earn Double Points on All Stays Worldwide
Best Western’s global promotion offers double points on all stays from September 2 through November 30, 2025. To participate, Best Western Rewards members must first register for the offer. Once registered, you’ll earn double rewards points on every eligible stay worldwide. There’s no minimum stay length required and no cap on how many bonus points you can earn.
The bonus applies only to base points. Normally, Best Western Rewards members earn 10 points per dollar spent on stays. With this promotion, that jumps to 20 points per dollar, plus any additional points you earn through elite status. Stays booked at non-qualifying rates, such as reward nights, won’t earn bonus points.
The terms only specify that you need to register before completing an eligible stay, so it’s unclear if stays booked before registering will qualify for the bonus points.
Key terms
- Register for this promotion before completing eligible stays.
- Earn double points on all stays between September 2 and November 30, 2025.
- Double points apply to the base points earned on the stay. Instead of 10 points per dollar, members will earn 20 points per dollar.
- This offer has no limit on the number of bonus points members can earn.
- Only stays booked at a points-earning rate qualify to earn bonus points.
- Members will receive the bonus points within 2 weeks of completing eligible nights.

Our Take
Best Western may not get the same love in the award travel world as World of Hyatt or even Marriott Bonvoy®. However, the Best Western Rewards program can deliver decent value if you find yourself frequenting its properties. And right now, there are a couple of promotions that can boost the rewards you earn on your upcoming stays. Just be sure to register so you don’t miss out.

Not a fan, the gift card is only for Best Western, and expires August 3rd
For the 10,000 Bonus Points Every 3 Nights promotion, do stays booked with points count as a night?
Unfortunately no. The terms state “An “eligible night” for the purpose of this promotion is defined as a stay of at least one night at any Best Western branded hotel, at a rate eligible for earning BWR points.” Since reward nights aren’t eligible to earn BWR points, they wouldn’t qualify to earn bonus points through this promotion.
Best Western is an under-rated program. BW isn’t really a chain. All BW properties are individually owned and operated. BW just acts as the marketing and reservation service for the properties. Where BW really shines, is in the small towns and cities in Europe, that don’t have properties from the big chains. These properties can be easily reserved via BestWestern.com. BW also status matches all the big chain programs. Plus many of the accommodations in Europe are unique and less expensive than the big chains.
Many times in Europe, BW saved us money and offered nicer properties than the big chains.
John, Agree that it’s underrated. My wife and I stayed at the BW near the Grand Canyon and saved a bunch of money redeeming BW points + getting free breakfast from my status.
Their website indicates you must book through their website. No travel agencies. I confirmed with BW.
That’s right. We noted in the post: “Stays booked through an online travel agency, tour operator, or at a discounted rate are ineligible.”
Best Western is a great option, but the prices charged have increased a lot
Best Western is a great option to travel in small stay! I like i very much and have great deals with advance reserved
Although this promotion is not valid for Argentina , it worth chosing a Best Western for staying due to price/quality balance.
Always appreciate the chance to get a few extra points than normal, nice bonus from best western!
When you are in a town where the bigger chains aren’t nearby, staying at a Best Western isn’t too bad. Easy way to pick up some extra points.
Considering the fact that the points Best Western are almost useless I don’t think this promotion will have a lot of attention.
I have two BW stays coming up that are a day apart. I wonder if the GC will show up electronically in time for me to use it for the second stay
Always sign up for every BW bonus regardless of your plans: I’ve found that they often don’t strictly start & end on the stated dates.
Good deal, but not very useful is you are not in the US, Canada or the Caribbean.

This is good if you are going to BestWestern
That expiration date is way too soon to entice people to stay at one of their properties over another brand’s. Okay bonus if you’re already planning a stay with them.
.. perfect to stack this offer with the Rakuten offer.
A plus with BW Rewards is that points don’t expire,
I need to look more fully into Best Western. Now might be the time ?
Does Best Western have a different brand name for its higher-end properties?
Best Western partners with the WorldHotels Collection, which has some quite high-end properties. The more-classic high-end Best Western brand is Best Western Plus. I stayed at one of these in 2019 in Washington and was pleasantly surprised.

I’ve signed up. Nice to get more value out of stays I’d do anyway. The one problem with the gift cards is that they expire only a few months after they are issued so they need to be used very quickly. No problem for frequent travelers but not great for those who only travel once per year.
If I was in charge, of like everything, “gift cards” that expire wouldn’t be allowed to be called gift cards. Sounds like a coupon. Regardless, thanks for the important heads up.
Appreciate this heads up too…I’ve had many of these gc’s expire.
Indeed, the expiration date is VERY short with this promotion.
