Eligible booking channels:

The statement ‘earn up to 300 D$’ is based solely for illustrative example. The illustrative scenario assumes a Gold tier member completing two (2) qualifying stays during the Promotional Travel Period, each with an average eligible spend of USD 1,000. 

Based on the Gold tier earning rate of 5% of eligible spend, should a  member would earn approximately D$300, what means (i) additionally D$100 per stay, derived from the application of 3x D$ earning rate applied under the Promotion; (ii) additionally D$25 per stay, obtained from the  Anniversary Thank You, and (iii) additionally  D$50,  awarded when the second qualifying stay is completed at a different participating Minor Hotels brand. Under this illustrative assumption, a member may earn up to approximately D$300. This scenario is provided for illustration purposes only and does not create any entitlement or guarantee. Actual earnings may vary depending on member’s tier status, eligible spend, number of qualifying stays, and compliance with all Promotional Terms and Conditions. 

  • Example of the calculation *up to 300 D$* First eligible stay:
    • USD 1,000 x 5%= D$50 x 3 = D$150 (D$100 of which are additional to the D$50 basic D$).
    • + D$25 Anniversary Thank‑You bonus.
  • Second eligible stay:
    • USD 1,000 x 5%= D$50 x 3 = D$150 (D$100 of which are additional to the D$50 basic D$)
    • + D$25 Anniversary Thank‑You bonus.
    • + D$50 bonus (if the stay is in other Minor brand than the first stay).

Bookings and eligible stays made prior to the Registration will not be considered as a qualified eligible stay towards the promotion, even if they are in the Promotional Stay period.

Consecutive stays with the same check-in date as the last check-out date at the same property will not receive Promotional D$.

“Net Eligible Spend” for the purposes of this Promotion is the revenue shown on the member’s check out folio on an Eligible Stay (excluding taxes and service charges) on which the member is eligible for earning Base DISCOVERY Dollars. Net Eligible Spend excludes any amount on the folio that is paid for using DISCOVERY Dollars and may also exclude spending at hotel outlets such as restaurants or spas where these are excluded from earning Base DISCOVERY Dollars.

Each booking and stay within the promotion period is evaluated individually, and eligible spend is NOT combined cumulatively across stays for rewards. For bookings that include multiple rooms, the eligible room will be selected at the discretion of the program. For overlapping stays, the promotion will only apply to one of the stays.

“Ineligible rates” do not qualify for earning Promotional D$. “Ineligible Rates” shall include, without limitation: 

  1. Third-party online retailer rates, such as Expedia.com, Booking.com, Hotels.com, Orbitz.com, Priceline, Travelocity.com, etc. (“OTAs”); 
  2. Bookings made with tour operators, tours series rates and charter rates; 
  3. Room rates for airline staff and crew where rooms are pre-booked and paid for by the airline or directly;
  4. Travel-industry staff rates;
  5. Other discounted rates;
  6. Any complimentary, free, traded or bartered night stays, or any stays in connection with gift certificates or other awards or vouchers;
  7. Corporate and wholesale rates. 

Promotional D$ are awarded in addition to the Base D$ that are issued as a result of completing the eligible stay. Promotional D$ are subject to a limited expiry term of three (3) months from the date of issuance and are therefore excluded from the Base D$ expiration rules. Any Base D$ earned on a member’s stay will be subject to expiration based on standard tier-based expiration rules. This offer is subject to change or withdrawal without notice, is subject to availability and blackout dates may apply. Promotional D$ or Promotional Tier Night credits can be earned on a maximum of two rooms per night.

This offer is subject to change or withdrawal without notice, cannot be transferred or exchanged for other forms of compensation, cannot be combined with any other offer or promotion unless explicitly stated and is subject to availability. D$ is not redeemable for cash.
