About Starwood Preferred Guest
Starwood Preferred Guest was a top-notch hotel rewards program that earned Starpoints. These points were worth as much as 2 cents each on average and sat alongside Hyatt in terms of valuable hotel rewards points.
The Starwood program was bought out by Marriott in 2018. If you had Starpoints in your SPG account, they were converted to Marriott Rewards Points as long as you had a linked Marriott Rewards account at the time.
The Marriott Rewards program was re-branded as Marriott Bonvoy and all Starwood credit cards were officially re-named February 2019.
