I Prefer pays 2,500 bonus points a stay at Preferred's newest hotels

I Prefer is paying 2,500 bonus points a stay at Preferred Hotels' newest additions, booked through its own channels by 31 December 2026.

The award and its two windows

Preferred Hotels & Resorts is paying 2,500 bonus I Prefer points on a stay at its newest additions. The programme’s own offer page carries the award.

The booking window closes 31 December 2026. The stay window runs through 31 March 2027.

The programme titles the offer the I Prefer Limited-Time Newest Additions Quarterly Offer. Its terms page reads: “To qualify for this offer, book your stay between October 1 – December 31, 2026, and stay between October 1 – March 31, 2027.”

The channels the terms allow

A member books through PreferredHotels.com, iprefer.com, the I Prefer App, or Preferred Hotels & Resorts Global Reservations. The terms add rate code MKTUFM to that list.

The reservation must carry a valid I Prefer member number before arrival day. The terms state that the bonus points arrive on completion of the qualified stay.

The programme keeps the participating hotel list on the offer page. The public page carries no property count, so a member cannot price this offer against a named hotel from the page alone.

The award attaches to the stay

The award is flat per qualifying stay. A three-night booking at one property pays the same 2,500 points as a single night.

A member who moves between two qualifying properties books two stays and collects the award twice.

The terms allow a property to set a minimum night stay, and blackout dates may apply.

The terms outside the headline

Bonus points from this offer do not count towards tier upgrade qualification.

The offer is valid at participating hotels only and is subject to availability. The programme states it may change the offer without notice, and each booking follows the cancellation policy set by the hotel.

The second offer running alongside

Preferred Hotels is running a separate double-points offer at the same time. Members register and book between 1 and 31 October 2026, stay by 31 December 2026, and stay a minimum of two nights.

The programme states that stays completed before registration do not qualify, and that reservations made before the promotion period do not qualify.

Neither offer’s terms bar a member from collecting both awards on one qualifying stay. The booking window and the stay window of the newest-additions offer overlap across October, November and December.
