Consumers will like the outcome of at least one election this fall. Choice Hotels
International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH) is helping its guests make their vote count
with the "Elect to Earn Triple Points" promotion for its MainStay Suites,
Suburban Extended Stay Hotel, Econo Lodge and Rodeway Inn brand hotels -- a
total of over 1,200 properties.

Starting September 1, Choice Privileges members who book their stays
online at choicehotels.com or by calling 800.4CHOICE will receive triple
Choice Privileges points, starting with their second qualifying stay.
Members who book their stays using another method will earn double Choice

for qualifying stays at MainStay Suites, Suburban Extended Stay, Econo
Lodge and Rodeway Inn brand hotels with arrival from September 1 until

president of Choice Privileges for Choice Hotels. "This is a wonderful way
for us to give back to our guests and provide them with a great added
value."
