About Choice Hotels

How to File a Complaint Against Choice Hotels
Guests may need to complain about room conditions, cleanliness, hotel staff, billing, refunds, reservations, accessibility, loyalty points, property maintenance, noise, or another Choice-branded hotel experience. Keep the hotel name, location, confirmation number, stay dates, receipts, photographs, and previous hotel-management communication before escalating.
Step 1: Contact the Hotel Directly
Begin with the Choice-branded hotel where the issue occurred and ask to speak with the General Manager or manager on duty. Because most Choice hotels are independently owned and operated, the property has primary responsibility for many room, staff, maintenance, billing, and service issues. Provide your confirmation number, room number, dates, and supporting evidence, and clearly explain the resolution you are requesting.
Step 2: Contact Choice Hotels Customer Relations
If the hotel does not resolve the issue, call 800-300-8800 or submit the official Customer Service form. Choice’s form accepts issues involving hotel feedback, billing, receipts, missing stays, points, account concerns, and other guest-service matters. Provide the hotel, dates, reservation details, prior manager contact, and a concise description of what remains unresolved.
Step 3: Use Reservations or Choice Privileges Support When Appropriate
For reservation problems, call 877-424-6423. Loyalty members can contact 888-770-6800 for Choice Privileges support or 800-521-2121 for Choice Privileges reservations. Include previous case numbers and keep a written record of what the hotel and Choice Hotels representatives tell you.
Step 4: Send Formal Written Correspondence to Headquarters
For a serious unresolved corporate complaint, correspondence can be sent to Choice Hotels International, Inc., 915 Meeting Street, Suite 600, North Bethesda, MD 20852. Include your contact information, hotel name, confirmation number, stay dates, receipts, photographs, previous complaint history, and requested resolution. Keep copies of all documents and proof of delivery.
Step 5: Use the Appropriate External Complaint Process if Necessary
If the complaint remains unresolved, the appropriate outside process depends on the issue. Payment disputes can involve the card issuer, health and safety matters may involve local authorities, and accessibility complaints can involve disability-rights enforcement channels. General consumer complaints may be filed with the relevant state Attorney General or consumer-protection agency. Preserve hotel receipts, photos, emails, Customer Relations case numbers, and written responses before escalating.
