If you have a special senior in your life, or if you are that special senior, you might be interested in some of the programs Choice Hotels offers seniors. Seniors who are 60+ or an AARP member can save up to 10 percent with advance reservations. Request the Senior Rate when you call (800) 424-6423 to book your Choice Hotels stay. And also as an AARP member, not only will you get the discount, but you can enjoy free continental breakfast and free local calls at most locations.

Furthermore, your points can be spent for AARP memberships: 5,000 points for a one-year membership or 12,000 points for a three-year membership. If you would like to sign up for the Choice Hotels senior e-newsletter, simply send an email to [email protected].

All Choice Privileges members get express reservations and check-in, extended check out (up to two hours past standard check out), high speed Internet free (excluding Rodeway Inn) and complimentary newspaper (excluding Suburban).
