As a member of IHG One Rewards, there’s some exciting news for those looking to explore newly added hotels in IHG’s ever-expanding portfolio. To entice members to experience these new venues, IHG is offering a 15% discount on award nights at eligible new hotels and resorts. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or planning your first IHG stay, understanding how this promotion works can help you maximize your points and enjoy valuable savings.
How to Save 15% on IHG Award Nights
The process to enjoy this fantastic 15% discount is remarkably straightforward. Thankfully, there’s no need to register or sign up before making a reservation. Instead, members can easily find eligible properties by checking IHG’s website, specifically the list of eligible hotels. You can also search for award stays as you normally would and look for properties flagged as “New to IHG,” which will display a crossed-out award price to highlight the discount.
Once you’re logged into your IHG account, you will automatically receive the 15% discount when booking an award stay at one of the eligible new hotels or resorts through the IHG website or app. For instance, if an award night costs 16,000 points, with the discount, it drops to just 13,600 points. This reduction can significantly impact your travel budget and encourage you to explore new destinations.
It’s important to note that IHG updates its list of new properties approximately once a month. Once a property is added, the 15% discount typically applies to bookings made for stays within the next few months. Currently, many properties on the list require booking and stay completion by March 31, April 30, or May 31. Keep an eye on the updates to recognize new opportunities as they become available.
However, you should be aware that this discount cannot be combined with the fourth-night reward benefit available to cardholders of the IHG One Rewards Premier Credit Card, IHG One Rewards Traveler Credit Card, and the IHG One Rewards Premier Business Credit Card. This particular benefit allows cardholders to enjoy every fourth night for free when redeeming IHG points for a stay longer than three nights.
