IHG launches a good ‘3 for 2’ hotel suites promotion

IHG One Rewards, the loyalty programme for InterContinental, Regent, Hotel Indigo, Crowne Plaza etc, has launched a good ‘buy two, get one night free’ promotion on suites and ‘premium rooms’.

You can find full details here.

What is intriguing about the deal is that your booking is fully cancellable. When IHG has a sale, it usually quotes a discount from the refundable rate but makes your booking non-refundable, so you’re not comparing apples with apples. With this deal, you are.

Here are the terms:

• book between 10th June and 30th September

• stay between 13th June and 31st October

• ‘stay 3, pay 2’ rate is based on your 3rd night being free, irrespective of the average price of each night or your length of stay

• bookings can be cancelled up to three days before arrival

Particpating countries are: Algeria, Angola, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belgium, Bulgaria, Egypt, Fiji, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Jordan, Kenya, Kuwait, Lebanon, Maldives, Malta, Mauritius, Nepal, Netherlands, New Zealand, Oman, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tanzania, Thailand, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States of America, Uzbekistan and Zimbabwe.

Participating brands are: Regent, InterContinental, Vignette Collection, Kimpton, Hotel Indigo, voco, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Holiday Inn Express, Holiday Inn & Suites, Holiday Inn Express & Suites and Staybridge Suites.

The offer is not well described when booking online. Take a look at the screenshot below for a full suite at Hotel Indigo Paris Opera – the hotel is pictured below.

The ‘3 for 2’ rate is the ‘Member Rate’ with a three day cancellation rule. The giveaway is the three day bit. It is explained more clearly when you click through. Click to enlarge:

As you can see, for a three day stay the sale rate is substantially lower than the alternatives. In fact, the ‘3-4-2’ deal is far cheaper than non-refundable rates even though the ‘3-4-2’ booking is cancellable.
