Marriott International has rolled out a pair of promotions for Marriott Rewards and Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) members.

The promotions allow loyal guests to earn free nights and points during the busy holiday travel season.

The Marriott Rewards MegaBonus promotion enables registered members to earn a free night when they pay for a minimum of two stays at participating hotels and resorts during the four-month earning period. Members will also unlock additional offers when they stay twice.

A stay is defined as consecutive nights spent at the same hotel.

Meanwhile, SPG members can earn up to 1,000 Starpoints for eligible stays through the program's newly-launched Explore More promotion.

Registered members will earn 500 Starpoints for qualifying stays at participating Aloft, Element and Four Points properties and 1,000 Starpoints for eligible stays at select St. Regis, The Luxury Collection, W Hotels, Le Meridien, Westin, Sheraton, Tribute Portfolio and Design Hotels locations.
