SPG Hot Escapes Good Picks for November 20, 2014
SPG’s weekly list of Hot Escapes came out yesterday and here are some good picks from the bunch. For those who aren’t familiar with Hot Escapes, SPG combined Beat The Timer for Hot Escapes and Starpicks into something called Hot Escapes. Every Wednesday at 6am EST new properties are added and must be booked by that Saturday, for stays during the following six weeks. As an SPG member, you also save an extra 5% and earn points for the stay.
The only downside is that reservations are prepaid, and if you change or cancel a fee is involved.
Here’s a link to this week’s Hot Escapes selections.

The list this week is pretty heavy on hotels in China, with 27 on sale. The only place with a higher number is the US with 35 this week.
The W New York Downtown is at a really good price of $190 a night. Last time it was on sale here it was only on a Monday and Tuesday night. Availability is better this time, with weekdays and also a weekend; the one before Christmas.
The Aloft San Francisco Airport has a decent SPG member rate of $99 through Thanksgiving weekend on November 30, 2014 and the Sheraton Arlington Hotel in Texas is at $72 for the week of Christmas.
Frankfurt’s Sheraton Offenbach Hotel has wide open weekends at the $94 rate.
The Sheraton Hua Hin Pranburi Villas are again a steal at the member rate of $145, even lower than it was back in October.
Le Méridien Koh Samui Resort & Spa is offered at $124 which is a good rate for a good hotel, but it isn’t available Saturday nights.
