beVancouver – Up to $125 off a hotel night

ByDCTA February 19, 2015

beVancouver, a company of the Vancouver Hotel Destination Association, offers a popular promotion annually for a $50, $75, $100, or $125 AMEX Gift Card (which can actually be used to pay for the stay) on a hotel night at one of thirty-six downtown Vancouver hotels. This year, they’re also giving you a $50 AMEX Gift Card for each additional night on the same reservation. They enforce a three reservations maximum, that is, you can have as many nights as you wish, but you can’t have more than three bookings. The stay must occur by April 30, 2015.

Tricks

Using hotel promotion codes more than once

ByDCTA August 17, 2014

There are many promotion codes available, and many of them only allow single use. I am not talking about coupons that state one use per customer. I’m talking about coupons that say one use per booking, but the system, for some reason or another, blocks additional uses of it for new bookings (even though the terms and conditions should allow it).

How I book a paid hotel.

ByDCTA June 30, 2014

I don’t usually pay for hotel rooms. Most of my hotel stays are IHG BRGs, point stays, or mistake fares… sometimes, I even stay at hostels (the shame!).
