While some hotel programs offer discounts on paid stays<\/a>, it's less common to find discounted hotel award stays. Virgin Hotels \u2014 a small but mighty collection of hotels around the world \u2014 occasionally runs promotions that let you book stays for fewer points. Combine that with a transfer bonus from a credit card rewards program, and your next stay could cost even less.<\/p>\n

Here's the property currently available at a discounted rate \u2014 and how to earn the Virgin Points needed to book it.<\/p>\n

Current Virgin Hotels Award Discounts<\/span><\/h2>\n

Virgin Hotels periodically discounts award stays at select properties. The participating locations change, but these promotions can offer a useful opportunity to stretch your Virgin Points further.<\/p>\n

Bookings must be made at least seven days in advance. Cancellations must be processed at least 72 hours before check-in, or you'll lose the points used for the reservation. Bookings cannot be amended, so you'll need to cancel and rebook if your plans change.<\/p>\n

Promotional redemption rates don't include breakfast. Taxes, fees, and other charges also aren't covered by the points redemption and must be paid directly to Virgin Hotels. Additionally, you won't earn Virgin Points on a stay booked entirely with points.<\/p>\n

To take advantage of these promotional rates, you'll need accounts with both Virgin Red and The Know, Virgin Hotels' loyalty program. Link the two accounts and make sure you're logged in to The Know when booking.<\/p>\n

Head to the Virgin Hotels Reward Stays webpage<\/a> to view the available promotions. After selecting an offer, you'll be directed to the Virgin Hotels website to complete your reservation.<\/p>\n

Follow the booking prompts and toggle on the “Pay with Virgin Points” option. Once you enter eligible travel dates, the website will display available reward stays. Your points will be deducted after you complete the reservation.<\/p>\n

You can learn more about booking Virgin Hotels and Virgin Limited Edition properties with points in our complete Virgin Hotels guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n
