New: earn Marriott Rewards points and stay credit with London house rentals from Hostmaker
Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission. See here for all partner links.
Marriott is dipping a toe into the ‘homes for rent’ market, and it has chosen London as its test bed. The new venture is called Tribute Portfolio Homes.
The interesting quirk is that you earn Marriott Rewards points and status night credits on every booking.
The service is put together by Hostmaker. Hostmaker is a company which offers management services to people listing property for daily rent, and oversees listings on Airbnb, HomeAway etc. This is a bit of a coup for them as it can offer an exclusive marketing channel to homeowners who sign up with it.
There are lots of interesting London flats and houses to rent. What you won’t find – in case you were thinking of doing a cheap mattress run for status purposes – are any bargains. I couldn’t find anything available for under £100 per night.
