We already have one update to our series on New Hotel Openings in Canada. This one comes to us from Hyatt
who have now revealed more details on the Hyatt Place Brampton. First
it will be called the Hyatt Place Toronto / Brampton now and an opening
date of July 27, 2022 has been published on the hotel website. Also, they
have added the hotel to the World of Hyatt program and it comes in
as a Category 2 Hotel. This means it will require 8,000 points for a
Standard free night award, 6,500 for Off Peak and 9,500 Peak. Click here to learn more about this hotel and others opening in Canada this year.

 

An email was sent out this week from third party hotel booking site Rocketmiles that they have integrated PointsHound
into their site. PointsHound was also third party hotel booking website
that awarded miles/points for booking hotels through them. They were
one of the first to do so and launched before Rocketmiles did. A few
years after PointsHound came online, the well known Canadian loyalty
company Points (Points.com) bought out PointsHound but continued to run
it separately. This news does not appeart to be Rocketmiles buying
PointsHound but rather Rocketmiles collaborating with Points to become
their third party booking engine. It some ways this make sense as the
two separate platforms essentially offered the same service so why not
combine them into one. If you are currently use PointsHound and not
Rocketmiles you will need to set up a new account with Rocketmiles as
they will not transfer it over once PointsHound is shut down. Click here to learn more!

As well Rocketmiles is offering 5,000 bonus miles/points in the program of your choice on your next booking! Check out the offer here.
