ÊChoice HotelsÊis making life on the road a little easier and even more rewarding for its loyalty rewards members. Through a new program with delivery.com, an on-demand marketplace with over 12,000 businesses, hotel guests can now enjoy the added convenience of delivery services from local restaurants directly to their hotel location, including nearly 1,000 Choice Hotels properties across the country and growingÑwhile also earning Choice Privileges loyalty points. On-demand delivery from wine and spirits shops, grocery stores, and even laundry and dry cleaning is coming soon.

“Our collaboration with delivery.com makes even more parts of the travel journey rewarding, while also providing the faster pay off and better perks that already come with Choice Privileges membership,”

saidÊJamie Russo, vice president of loyalty programs and customer engagement for Choice Hotels.

“Working with delivery.com provides Choice Privileges members with convenient, personalized services and the added bonus of loyalty points when using the service Ð a great option, particularly for our busy, on-the-go guests.”

saidÊSarah Searls, vice president of digital commerce for Choice Hotels.

“The integration of delivery.com into the recently enhanced Choice Hotels mobile app demonstrates how Choice constantly aims to help make travel easier and more rewarding. A digital ‘concierge’ service, such as this, is just one example.”
