The good news is this preview of category changes for the highest reward levels in Category 6, 7, and 8, shows more hotels dropping a level than increasing.
Here is the preview of changes posted by Marriott Concierge on FlyerTalk this morning.
Approximately 350 hotels will decrease by one category and approximately 300 hotels will increase by one category. Ninety-five percent of the hotels changing categories are in categories 1-5. The positive news is that many of our most popular locations will be available for fewer points.
