I travel about once a month for work--but almost always stay at a Marriott because of location and discount with my company.
However, for occasional conferences I could stay at IHG and have some points with them already. The deal on this card looks pretty good, but not sure how far the points go compared to Marriott. Any thoughts? Below is highlight of the current deal.
125k bonus points
40x points for IHG hotel spend the first year
4x points for other spend the first year

Also, Marriott has SpringHill Suites that can sometimes cater a room to six people (2 queen beds and pullout couch). Any such options with IHG? My 4 kids are all young so not a deal breaker.
