Military members serving abroad often endure challenging accommodations. In recognition of their service, major U.S. hotel chains provide generous discounts to active-duty personnel, veterans, and their families for comfortable stays during leave, homecomings, or vacations.

Leading hotel chains offering significant military discounts include:

  • Hilton Hotels—including Hampton Inns & Suites, DoubleTree, Embassy Suites, and Homewood Suites—provides government rates for active and retired military, with its own dedicated booking page. A standout feature is the booking engine searchable by nearby military bases.
  • Marriott’s 3,600+ locations offer discounted rates and special promotions for leisure travel. Visit Marriott's Find A Hotel page, select "Government/Military" from the "Special Rates" dropdown for available deals.
  • Over 2,700 Choice Hotels properties offer discounts. The parent company of Comfort Inn, Econo Lodge, and others runs the Choice Privileges Armed Services program, granting eligible veterans, active members, and families Elite Gold rewards status.
  • Best Western’s 4,000+ hotels in 80+ countries allow bookings online or by phone for discounted military rates.
  • Disneyland Resort Hotels provide special rates for military members, plus discounts on Park Hopper tickets. Similar offers apply to Disney Resort Hotels and Walt Disney World Park Hopper tickets. Always check the latest availability and terms.

When booking, always inquire about military or veteran discounts—individual hotels often have additional unadvertised specials for those who serve.
