 For example, for the W Lakeshore in Chicago, each site offers slightly different room rates and substantially different numbers of Alaska miles.

 Everyone should already be taking the relatively simple steps to  earn rewards on their hotel reservations by {{link|travel spending|using a credit card that earns good rewards on travel spending}} and {{link|earn hotel points|earning points with the hotel's loyalty program}} (when possible). When better rates aren't available elsewhere, booking through {{link|hotels.com|Hotels.com Rewards Program}} is a good way to further boost your rewards.
