La Quinta Returns Is Now Wyndham Rewards

Once you have transferred your account, let's see what you can do with your points!
Types of Upgrades You Can Get At La Quinta Hotels
Available upgrades vary across La Quinta Hotels' locations nationwide, but upgrades and benefits may include:
- Free nights
- Poolside rooms
- Suites
- Pet fee waivers
- Military perks
- Bed size upgrades
- Deals and vouchers from nearby businesses
- Transportation service
You won 't know what you can get unless you ask, or have DoNotPay ask on your behalf! You might even be able to get upgrades at sold-out hotels if you do it right.
A Note on Getting an Upgrade After You've Already Checked In
The best time to ask for an upgrade is when you're booking your reservation. La Quinta Hotels knows they have to work hard to earn your business, and incentives are how they can help make a sale.
You 're less likely to get a La Quinta rewards upgrade if you ask at check- in time, especially if you've pre-paid for your hotel stay. If the general manager isn't on-site, they can't approve special upgrades and once you've paid for your room--unless you have good reason to complain about service, quality, and cleanliness--management is less motivated to issue upgrade requests.
How to Get a La Quinta Hotels Rewards Upgrade on Your Own
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. offers two main avenues for cashing in your rewards, whether you use them at La Quinta Hotels or any of the company's other properties:
Go to the Wyndham Website to Cash In Rewards Points
Wyndham has set up a complex website where you can learn how to exchange rewards points for discounts and find available offers. The benefits aren't always easy to find, though, and in most cases, they're only available if you book online through the site itself. The most you might get out of the website is finding out how many points are needed for a free stay at La Quinta Hotel or other Wyndham property.
In any case, there isn't any way of personalizing your request, and you're not interacting with a live, decision-making person.
Call the General Manager at the La Quinta Hotel Where You 'll Be
Staying
A hotel 's general manager will have certain freedoms and discretion to work with you if you deal with them directly. Here are some tips for working with a La Quinta Hotel general manager:
- Have your travel itinerary and Wyndham Rewards number available, as well as any other information important to your trip.
- Have a general idea what competing hotels nearby are charging for your room size, and if they have any advertised incentives.
- Call during business hours and ask for the General Manager's name.
- Ask if they are available to answer your questions. If the person taking your call offers to help you instead, politely insist on speaking with the General Manager. If they're not available:
- Ask when you can call back and follow up later
- Give them your number and the best time for them to call you
- When you get to speak with the General Manager, ask them the following:
- Can they beat (xxx hotel's) rate for the dates you plan to stay?
- Are there any discounts available beyond your AAA, military, senior citizens, or rewards allowances?
- Are any of the earlier listed potential benefits available to you?
- If the General Manager is able to accommodate your request, ask when and how the upgrade will show on your reservation or final bill.
Be polite, professional, and firm, and remember that there is no harm in asking for special rewards and privileges, especially if you are a member of the Wyndham Rewards program. Keep notes on your conversation, including the time, date, and names of the persons you have spoken with.
