NeverOverpayataMarriottAgain

StayHawk monitors your Marriott booking daily. When the price drops, you get a step-by-step playbook — including how to file a Best Rate Guarantee claim for up to 25% off.

Works with all 30+ Marriott Bonvoy brands — Courtyard, Westin, Sheraton, Ritz-Carlton, and more

The Program

Marriott promises you the lowest rate — but only if you catch it

Book directly on Marriott.com, and if you find a lower rate elsewhere within 24 hours, Marriott will match it — and take an additional 25% off the matched price.

You need to be a Marriott Bonvoy member (free to join). The lower rate must be for the same hotel, room type, dates, and cancellation policy. Opaque rates and package deals are excluded.

The catch: you have to find the lower rate yourself, and you only have 24 hours after booking. Most travellers never check.

Step-by-Step

Filing a Marriott Best Rate Guarantee claim

1

Book your room directly on Marriott.com or the Marriott Bonvoy app

2

Find a lower rate on another website for the same hotel, room type, and dates

3

Submit your claim at Marriott's BRG page within 24 hours of booking

4

Include a screenshot or link to the lower rate

5

If approved, Marriott matches the rate and gives you an additional 25% off the matched price

Doing it manually

You'd need to search multiple sites daily, compare rates, track your 24h window, and file before the deadline. Most people don't bother.

FAQ

Common questions about Marriott BRG and StayHawk

Marriott's Best Rate Guarantee (BRG) promises that if you book directly on Marriott.com and then find a lower rate for the same hotel, room type, and dates on another website, Marriott will match the lower rate and give you an additional 25% discount on the matched price.
You must submit your BRG claim within 24 hours of making your direct booking on Marriott.com. The claim window is strict — if you miss it, the guarantee no longer applies.
Yes. The Best Rate Guarantee only applies to bookings made directly on Marriott.com or through the Marriott Bonvoy app. Bookings through OTAs like Expedia or Booking.com are not eligible for BRG claims.
If you booked through an OTA, you can't file a BRG claim on that booking. However, StayHawk's playbook will recommend cancelling the OTA booking (if free cancellation is available) and rebooking directly on Marriott.com at the lower rate — then filing a BRG claim for an extra 25% off.
Forward your Marriott confirmation email to StayHawk. We automatically detect the hotel chain, check rates daily across multiple platforms, and alert you the moment we find a lower price — along with a step-by-step playbook for how to save.
No. StayHawk detects the price drop, builds your playbook, and links you directly to Marriott's BRG claim page. You submit the claim yourself — it takes about 60 seconds.
