“Guests of our hotels tend to be very loyal, especially to our flagship property, the Graves 601 Hotel Minneapolis,” said Scott Fischburg, vice president of Sales and Marketing, Graves Hotels Resorts. “The introduction of this program is a way to not only thank guests for their continued patronage, but also provide them with a tangible ‘payback’ that can be applied toward future reservations, hotel services and air miles. Our plan is to continue growing the program, adding new partners and opportunities for members to earn credits faster.”

Fischburg added that Graves Preferred Guests is one of many cornerstone brand programs offered at existing and future Graves Hotels Resorts properties.

Examples of Graves Preferred Guests program rewards and benefits include:

•Free weekend room night (15,000 credits)

•Freedom and flexibility to earn points through partners in the expanding program
