Summer 2026 Sweepstakes: Win 250,000 Bonus Points
Every qualified night completed during the promotional period doubles as an entry into the Summer 2026 BWH Hotel Sweepstakes. Registered members can earn up to 20 total entries during the promotion for a chance to win a grand prize of 250,000 Best Western Rewards bonus points.
At standard Best Western reward rates, 250,000 points is enough to cover up to 10–30 free hotel nights, depending on the property tier and seasonality.
What Counts as a “Qualifying Night”?

- Excluded Bookings: Stays booked through Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) such as Expedia, Booking.com, Priceline, or via tour operators do not qualify for bonus points or sweepstakes entries.
