IHG One Rewards is running a flash sale on reward nights. The promotion is valid for stays until 16 December, 2022.
This sale on IHG reward nights is not open to all, unfortunately. You should automatically see the discount:
- Between October 26-28, 2022 if you hold Platinum or Diamond status
- US-based credit card holders have had a 2-day head start
If you book a Points & Cash stay, you should see the 15% discount applied to both the points and the cash element. (however, IHG is known for increasing the cash element beforehand, so that the prices returns to normal in the “sale”) And, as always, you must remember that the cash element is charged immediately. If you choose to cancel later, you will receive your refund in the form of points.
Do IHG Reward Nights Count for Promotions?
No. The reward nights you book at a 15% discount will NOT count for:
- The 10 nights you need to extend your Diamond status from the recent “instant Diamond” promotion – click here for details
- The bonus-points-every-2-or-4-nights promotion currently running – click here for details
Bottom Line
If you are a Platinum/Diamond member, you should revisit any existing reward bookings with IHG – you might save some points by cancelling and re-booking.
And if you have some travel plans for autumn 2022 that you haven’t gotten around to confirming, now is the time…
Checked a booking at HIE Malaga Airport and points had very recently increased from 12000 to 16000, now showing reduced amount of 13600 with cash amount not really changing……smoke and mirrors!
Yes. IHG are quite dodgy sometimes. A London hotel I found yesterday for 20k points is 31k today, discounted to 26.5k today. But some other hotels didn’t have their prices change, so the 15% discount can be real.
