IHG extends the 15 percent award discount at new hotels
IHG One Rewards takes 15 percent off the points needed for a Reward Night at hotels the group has recently opened or renovated. The offer covers bookings and stays through 31 March 2027 at the properties whose own period reaches that date. Other properties on the list close earlier, on 31 December 2026, 31 January 2027 or 28 February 2027.
AwardWallet reported the extension on 2 October 2026 and counts 228 eligible properties in this version of the list. A 16 June 2026 capture of IHG’s own page carries the same 15 percent headline and the same terms block.
Four deadlines inside one list
AwardWallet publishes the list in four blocks by deadline. Its own table prints 65 entries under 31 December 2026, 77 under 31 January 2027, 47 under 28 February 2027 and 39 under 31 March 2027. The four blocks total 228 entries. Four hotel names sit in two blocks each, so the list carries 224 distinct properties.
The blocks run across six regions: the United States, the Americas, China, Europe, East Asia and Pacific, and India, the Middle East and Africa. The names span the group’s newest brands and its established ones. Garner, Holiday Inn Express, Candlewood Suites, Staybridge Suites, Atwell Suites, EVEN, voco, Hotel Indigo, HUALUXE, Crowne Plaza, ANA Crowne Plaza and InterContinental sit alongside Kimpton, Vignette Collection, Ruby and Iberostar Waves.
Vignette Collection names seven entries, among them Bristol Berlin, The Venice Times, L’Union Han Istanbul and Canary Riverside Plaza London. Kimpton names El Castelar Polanco in Mexico, Nine Trees Shanghai, La Mer Crete and Quinta da Marinha in Portugal. Twelve Ruby hotels appear across eleven European cities, with Vienna carrying two of them.
What the issuer’s terms say about points and cash
IHG publishes the terms on its own new-hotel deals page. The offer covers a 15 percent discount off the number of points needed to book a stay using points only. The terms state that the offer does not include a discount for Points & Cash reward night redemptions.
Three further conditions sit in the same block. A member signs in to an IHG One Rewards account and books through an official IHG online reservations site. Each hotel carries its own offer period, and the booking and the stay both fall inside it. The discount appears on the participating hotel’s booking page at the time of booking, and no promo code is involved.
The fourth-night benefit and its limit
IHG’s terms bar a cardholder from combining the offer with the Fourth Reward Night Free benefit on a stay of four or more consecutive Reward Nights. The same clause permits the combination on a booking of three or fewer consecutive Reward Nights. The terms add that the offer is not a Chase offer.
The Canadian properties
Milesopedia counts seven hotels in Canada on the list. Two Granby, Quebec properties share a 31 January 2027 deadline. Candlewood Suites Pembroke, Staybridge Suites Aurora East and Holiday Inn Express Toronto Downtown close on 28 February 2027. Holiday Inn & Suites Vancouver Downtown runs to 31 March 2027, the longest window on the list.
Milesopedia records an eighth Canadian entry, Candlewood Suites St. John’s Conference Centre, with no deadline attached to it. That property carries the same 15 percent reduction at booking, and a member reads the points price on the hotel’s own page.
What a property reads in the offer
The reduction applies to the points price of a Reward Night. The terms carry no change to a hotel’s cash rate and no change to the programme’s reimbursement for an award night. The offer pulls award bookings into direct channels. A booking made outside an official IHG reservations site or outside the member’s signed-in session earns nothing under it.
A revenue team with a property on the list can compare the discounted award price with the cash rate for the same dates. The list gives the deadline, and the property’s own booking page gives the points figure.
What the offer does not carry
The list gives a deadline for each property and no standard points price for any of them. The cash value of the 15 percent reduction varies by hotel and by date. No party publishes a room-night total for the offer, a redemption volume or a revenue figure.
IHG adds hotels to the list as they open or reopen after renovation, and each keeps its own deadline. The terms require a member to raise any question about the offer within 60 days of the end of the hotel’s offer period.
