IHG One Rewards extends 15% discount on new

IHG One Rewards is continuing a promotion that provides a 15% discount on reward night redemptions at selected new and refurbished hotels. The scheme has been restructured to extend the discount period to six months for newly added properties, doubling the previous three-month window.

Participating hotels display the original redemption price crossed out alongside the discounted rate, allowing members to see the savings. The list of eligible properties is extensive, primarily featuring European hotels with staggered booking deadlines.

Participating Hotels and Deadlines

The offer applies to numerous hotels, categorized by the last date a discounted reward stay can be booked. The source provides the following list of European properties.

Clarifying 'New' Hotel Definitions

The report notes that IHG has started listing whether a participating hotel is a new build, a conversion from another brand, or a refurbishment. This provides members with clearer expectations about the property.

Head for Points cautions that the term 'new hotel' does not always mean a newly constructed property with modern amenities. Some listed hotels, particularly the budget Garner brand properties, have simply switched flags to join IHG. The Ruby hotels are also not new builds; IHG recently acquired the Ruby brand and is in the process of integrating these hotels into its portfolio.

Members should consult the official IHG website for a full list of participating hotels, including those outside Europe. The promotion represents a change in how IHG One Rewards incentivizes stays at its newest properties, focusing on an extended discount period for reward redemptions.
