Marriott owns a few luxury country hotels in the UK, the most popular one probably being the Langley near London. There is one in Scotland as well, Trump Turnberry, which happens to be a member of the Luxury Collection too.
This hotel tends to be quite expensive, which makes redemption (35,000 points) an attractive deal. However, the hotel is running some very good promotions at the moment which may change that.
For a weekend in August, you can the see the regular rate is £440 per night, for two people:
There is a Local Luxurious Getaway rate at £299, including:
- Free breakfast
- £40 daily dinner credit per person
- Room upgrade to the next category
This especially makes sense to those with no Marriott status, as the benefits can easily add up to more than £150’s worth.
There is also an All in at Turnberry rate, including:
- Free breakfast
- £250 resort credit per stay
Note that a minimum two-night stay is required for the second rate. It costs £349 per night, so compared to the first rate plan you are essentially trading £100 and £160 dinner credit for £250 credit, assuming a two-night stay, which doesn’t seem to be very logical…
If you are tempted, be careful with the cancellation policy. A £150 deposit is required upon booking, and full payment 7 days before arrival, both non-refundable.
