Every year, Starwood announces category changes for their hotels. The nice thing is that they give you advance warning so you can plan accordingly. Some hotels go up in category level. Some hotels go down. The list is out now for the changes coming up on March 7th 2017. Reviewing the list, it looks like hotels in China, India, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Middle East, Mexico are moving down in category. Hotels in Indonesia, Japan, Canada are moving up. Argentina and Peru were mixed with a few up and a few down. Cuba moved down. Europe was mixed, but one notable is the Sheraton Four Points in Venice moved down to a category 1. This is a brand new hotel opening April 15th 2017. A quick search shows rates of Eur 143 or $152 per night. Right now, it shows the points at 3,000 per night which is a great deal, but as a category 1, it could drop as low as 2,000 per night. Wow! That's really almost free family travel.
The Sheraton in Orlando is also moving down to a category 2 or 3,000 points per night which is great for families. So wait a few weeks to book your hotel for Disneyworld.
