Best Western is offering to match elite status.
To match your ELITE status in any other hotel program you can either email our Customer Care team at BWRelite@bestwestern.com, or call 1-800-444-7646.
Just tell us you want to upgrade your membership with Status Match…No CatchSM, provide us with proof of elite status with another hotel program and we’ll take care of the rest!
If you hold elite status in another program, and you might stay at a Best Western, great. Me? I have no Best Western plans in my future, so probably won’t take advantage of the offer.

Great timing for the Hyatt status, two Platinum status for the price of zero!
Does anyone know if BW is only matching “metal” for “metal”? For example, their Gold is more like Hilton Silver. If I’m a Hilton Gold, will BW just give me BW Gold? That’s pretty useless — especially if all you’re looking for is a room upgrade if you wind up in a couple of BW’s during the year.
